    American boxer Eric Molina has been suspended for two years after testing positive for a banned substance following his heavyweight fight with Anthony Joshua in December 2016.

    The 36-year-old tested positive for the prohibited substance dexamethasone.

    What the hell would he have fought like without PEDs!

    Back to the chalk board for Eric then. Deontay had been looking for a rematch too.

    Everybody knows American beefburgers are contaminated with dexamethasone!

    He's innocent, he's the victim here! Sulaiman will vouch for him!

    Well, he was scheduled to face Wach this weekend, they should let it continue, its a push, they both tested positive, I'm sure Mariusz would have no qualms going forward with it.

    And what the **** took so long? That was like 2 years ago.

    Don't worry, he's got a number of other slow, fat, high guard men waiting in the reserves to fight him. Deonkey's always covered for a rainy day.

    AJ absolutely toyed with and destroyed a juiced out of his mind on an industrial dose of Clenbuterol dexamethasone Eric Molina in 3 of the most one-sided rounds in the history of pugilism, Donkey went life and death against a clean Molina who rocked Donkey down to soul and badly hurt him before inevitably wilting due to the savage clobbering the back of his cranium had taken all night.

    I'm sure the fight will still happen, the messed up way boxing is this ban isn't enforceable outside of the UK. He was suspended on 28th Oct 2017 but fought Breazeale on the 4th Nov 2017 while suspended.

    As for why it took so long, it does just seem to be a very drawn out process sometimes with UKAD. Tony Thompson, the Fury's and now Molina all took 2 years for the case to be concluded.

    He should demand they best the B sample. That should buy him another 2 years before the results are back.

    How is he going to explain this to his students? Their hero is a drug cheat. The next class is going to be awkward.

    US suspensions are slaps on the wrist even for repeat offenders, unless you're a total nobody then they throw the book at you.
    Most other countries usually are a little more strict when it comes to suspensions.
