I definitely don’t think it is undermined by a clean sport.”“I really respect the sport I was part of, and I would never return I know that I did something that is not in the rules,” added the current.The World Anti -Doping Agency condemned this event and described it as a “dangerous and irresponsible project”.The CEO of British anti -doping Jane Rumble expressed strong concerns about development. “It is incredibly disappointing that every British athlete would consider a competition if he flies face to face the true spirit of sport,” she said. “Any decision of any athlete on the competition in improved game risks undermines the values of the sports landscape that appreciates hard work, integrity, clean talent and 100 % pure sport.”
