    Heavyweight @bigdaddybrowne1, who KO'd Chagaev for WBA reglular belt March 5 in Russia, tested positive for clenbuterol, ESPN has learned.

    Isn't this typically used for weight loss and increased aerobic capacity?

    You would expect a pro athlete to be on better stuff than clen, but then Browne isn't a big name with a big money team around him. Top athletes are on top PED prorams and only get caught if they mess up their cycle and/or ignore what they are told by their "conditioning" coaches.

    Failed drug test (clenbuterol) according to Dan Rafael on Twitter. Anyone know any more?

    That's because Fat Dan just tweeted this 30 mins ago.
    Same drug Erik Morales got busted for in 2013.

    I don't specifically know any more about the Lucas Browne case, but I do know that athletes have been getting popped for clenbuterol for going on thirty years now.

    It boggles the mind that with all these supposed designer PED gurus running around, you still have star athletes getting busted for using the same old stuff that has been around for decades. Like, you know they're detectable, why the hell would you retread ground that has gotten others in your own sport in trouble?

    Érik Morales was caught for it as recently as 2013. It almost seems inexcusable for any boxer to be dumb enough to use something which a peer has already received widely publicized sanctions for using. (not that any PED use proven should go without scorn, but that's just EXTRA dumb)

    Clenbuterol is a ****ing asthma medication, that wouldn't help him in the least.
