    Perhaps the news hasn't gotten to you that Canelo testes negative in a Hair Follicle Test.

    Again, the NSAC will suspend an athlete if he tests positive, whether the athlete took banned subtances intentionally or not.

    the fight will happen. His suspension was a rather odd one. A one year suspension only delays the fight by a few months. This really means nothing. He can get in shape and become a natural middleweight even more and GGG can get a little older. It does not hurt Canelo much.

    The funny thing is... Floyd/JMM/Canelo fans think their guy is clean, but Pac is dirty.

    It doesn't hurt him much timeline wise since he's still young. However his career is ****ed public perception wise. If he had any honor or innocence he would not have dropped out, stood by his name and fought the failed test, suspension, NSAC ruling. Instead he agrees to get suspended for a shorter term? Good job defending one's innocence!

    Yes there is why you have to lie.. you were already provided a link selling products that do just that on Amazon. Furthermore the hair follicle test is basically worthless as noted by the people doing the testing.

    maybe so, but if he does that and they uphold the result, it puts more spotlight on the issue. Most things fade away with time. Best to just move on and get wins and if he does not have anymore positive tests, he won anyway.

    Indeed:

    ""We initiated the test to be as comprehensive as possible but knowing it's very difficult, according to the experts," Bennett said. "It's a difficult process to be able to confirm whether there is clenbuterol in the hair follicles, but I talked to [SMRTL president and laboratory director] Dr. [Michael] Eichner and he said they'd run the test even though it is even more difficult to run on light-colored hair. But we sent them the samples and the tests came back negative.""

    The researchers and medical professionals Bloomberg BNA talked to echoed the reasoning of the Massachusetts court with regard to hair-follicle drug testing.

    “Every independent scientific organization that has studied hair testing concluded that it isn’t reliable,” Lewis Maltby, president and founder of the National Workrights Institute, told Bloomberg BNA. Maltby was previously director of the ACLU’s National Task Force on Civil Liberties in the Workplace.

    “The only scientists that support hair testing have ties to the industry,” Maltby said. The process “is so unreliable that the scientists at the Department of Health and Human Services won’t permit employers to use it in programs covered by federal regulations.”

    This includes commercial nuclear power plants, Paul Harris, who heads the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s fitness for duty program, told Bloomberg BNA.

    “Hair testing has been around for a long time, however the science and technology behind it hasn’t reached that of a consensus standard” just yet, Harris said. “HHS guidelines are viewed as the national consensus standards for drug testing,” but Harris can’t authorize hair testing in the nuclear industry “in part because HHS hasn’t yet developed and issued guidelines.”
