  • The Chinese Anti-Doping Agency (CHINADA) has denounced the Enhanced Games on Friday and called on the global sports community to collectively oppose the competition that endorses the use of banned substances.

China's sports authority has called on international sports organizations to reject the Enhanced Games, a new competition set to launch in 2025 that allows athletes to use performance-enhancing drugs, labeling it a "gladiator show" that goes against the Olympic spirit and poses health risks to participants. The event, backed by tech entrepreneur Aron D'Souza, aims to challenge traditional sports governance and has drawn criticism from the Chinese General Administration of Sport, which emphasized the importance of fair play and the potential dangers of doping. The statement from China reflects broader concerns within the global sports community about the integrity and safety of such an event.
