This type of doping is strictly helpful. If it were allowed then everyone would have to do it. Is that what we want sports to turn into? Every athlete in a cot at the starting line, getting filled up with new blood?
Yes, I personally have an interest in human advancement, and would definitely be following that sort of competition.
I'm all in favor of safeguarding the athletes, but I feel it's getting ridiculous at this stage and we should just allow for a type of competition where everything's allowed.
The more you do blood doping, your risk of a blood clot or other major complications increase. If everyone in sports blood doped, a noticable number of athletes would die or have career ending complications because of it.

Blood doping is not illegal. You and anyone who agrees with you are 100% free to host your own Cyberpunk Olympics with whatever eligibility rules you allow. You might not be allowed to use the word Olympics because of trademark.
But if this were allowed at the Olympics, the only winners would be those who put themselves at more risk. It would effectively be mandatory if you want to even get close to the top.
Look at professional bodybuilding to see how this ends. Being competitive means taking years (decades?) off of your life expectancy, and nobody wants to see their heroes die in their 50s.
