Canelo popped for Clenbuterol

He failed a test. There's your proof. See what has happened to everybody else to fail a test for the same thing he has and then tell me he's not had favourable treatment.

Alberto Contador tried to use the exact same excuse in pretty much the exact same situation and copped a ban as the testing bodies thought it was BS - amazingly though now they're actually making excuses for the athlete.

One only needs look at Povetkin's treatment to see the double standards on these boards and FWIW I gave the Russian just as much **** as I'm giving Canelo now. They're cheats. Simple as.

 

Has anyone bothered to mention Clenbuterol has a very short half life thus clearing ones system very quickly so it only stands to reason a follow up would be clean. Clenbuterol excretes linearly not non linearly like Meldonium.

 

Great, means he getting off the drugs. So when is he going to be fined and suspended for the 2 positive tests?

 

By support you just mean root for them or you mean tuning into their fights and rating their skills?

 

Lots of butthurt in this thread.

 

The Canelita's damage control thread would have been a more appropriate title!

 

Dont feel sorry for him mate you know better than that
He is denying the ones further down struggling for money and doing it clean from their big chance that they deserve

 

Support as in root for. I still watched their fights, just not with the same enthusiasm or reverence.

 

That was one of many tests smart guy.

 

Are you suggesting that the Lab director is willing to compromise his integrity and career and the integrity of WADA and their reputation for Canelo?

 

Canelo is a Ginger Mexican version of judge Dredd

"I am the law"

 

Representitive Jose Chiste of VADA said today that the organization has pinned down the exact moment, offending rancher and piece of beef that caused Saul "Canelo" Alvarez to test positive for Clenbuterol.

That can be contributed to tainted meat, that has already been established. Im talking about a dirty test because of juicing which you're implying and have no proof here nor there. But if you want to unjustly rule Canelo a cheat without giving him the benefit of the doubt, that's on you. Hes never failed a test for any fight prior to this one under the VADA protocol, and that speaks for itself, regardless of what you want to think.

 

Integrity and Wada don't go hand in hand... remember the tue and IV for floyd. After he got caught with it in his arm.

 

So now anyone can dope until they fail two tests?
