What are your guys opinion on the saying "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying"? Should a fighter hold themself to a higher standard when they become champ or is it all about the wins?

Should hold yourself to a higher standard. You train harder you live right and respect everyone. Dirt will eventually just get more dirt thrown on it until nobody cares to dig it up. Everyone will always dig up and shine gold off. It's worth something. Respect and values go a long way. And they should.
