Tyson Fury: Boxing has 'big problem with drugs'

World Heavyweight title challenger Tyson Fury claims boxing has a "big problem with drugs".

He questioned, "why don't they just make drugs totally legal in sports then everybody would be taking drugs then it would be fully fair then wouldn't it?"

Fury adds he's not worried about drug use in Boxing because "at the end of the day it's determination over drugs anytime."

The British Boxing Board of Control says it is committed in its fight against drug use in professional Boxing, and says it has an extensive program of out of competition testing and in competition testing, and will maintain its endeavors to combat drug use in association with United Kingdom Anti-Doping, who carry out all testing procedures and disciplinary hearings in compliance with the WADA code.
