I have made the argument before about the T/E ratio. If TRT is going to be allowed they should test both the ng/ml of testosterone as well as the T/E ratio. These tests should be given by the commission and paid for by the fighter if he chooses to apply for the exemption.
If the allowance is 4:1 T/E ratio while the average is 1:1, there is alot of room for abuse due to insufficient tests being done on the athlete. I believe there is insufficient testing on these fights as whole but in this particular issue, there needs to be two tests done to find out the legitimacy of the treatment rather than only one. The reason why only one is being done is because of cost. The commission would rather have more money for salaries than additional testing. Greed is more important than the purity of the sport.
