    THIS IS BIG NEWS.

    Rios looked like a zombie at weigh-in even at 147lbs, how he managed to make 135lbs for so long still amazes me but maybe this positive test points to how he did it.

    The whole of Team Rios including Robert Garcia should be ashamed of themselves.

    There's NO REASON Alex Ariza should be employed by anyone who has anything to do with boxing--or any other sport, for that matter!

    It would seem that almost every fighter is on SOMETHING. No wonder nobody wants VADA testing them, they actually catch this stuff!

    Rios likely took it to make weight, which is why it only showed up in the final test.

    Can't blame him for the talking really, it was his time to shine and he decided to spice things up and hype the fight, nothing out of the ordinary there. But failing this test hurts his career badly and possibly permanently.

    Are we really surprised?

    You gotta be on something to distinguish yourself on the world class stage.

    It's his 1st offence so he's likely to get a 6 month ban.

    When has a boxer really been punished heavily like other athletes?
    Most get a 3 to 6 month ban wich doesn't even hurt some because they only fight once a year. Some even get to hold on to their belt(s) and/or the W on their record list after being caught.

    In the lead up to the fight Garcia was saying Roach was stupid to let Ariza go, so they went ahead and hired Ariza. Well who is looking stupid now? Dumb fks.

    Just stirring the pot....

    If PAC beat Rios on PED and is that much better skilled, Floyd should still be able to lay waste to PAC on PED or not?
