Friendly reminder: Tyson Fury left boxing for 2 years because he was banned for PED

Wrong, Fury refused to do tests after Klitscko 1 and before the rematch:

How did they find fisstech in his system if he refused to be tested

 

The Hammer fight (WBO eliminator #1 vs #3 for the Wlad fight) wasn't overturned. Everybody including boxrec thought it was because that would be logical, but days later the fight result got reinstated. It would have created a paradox (ban should have started from that point on and he would never have qualified for the fight) if they did of course.

 

Yeah because Fury is well known for not lieing through his teeth about multiple things. He tested positive for nandrolone and got a 2 year backdated ban, that is literally a fact. Him saying it didn’t happen is complete fantasy.

 

If you know anything about the metabolism of nandrolone then you'll know that he didn't take any performance enhancing drugs.

Plus, elevated levels are possible naturally, i.e. Without taking exogenous nandrolone.

Read the conclusion of this study if you want to actually educate yourself:

What level of Nandrolone was Fury found to have?

 

Enough to use eating Wild Boar as an excuse

 

As far as i'm aware, he had "elevated levels" of nandrolene, then tested positive for cocaine, and his license was taken away then. Those are the "facts", if you believe that to be a load of nonsense, fine, i completely understand your viewpoint, but just giving your opinion and saying "facts" doesn't make it a fact.

 

because it didn't happen. Do i think the wild boar and the excuses were true, no i don't, but the facts are the facts

 

The facts include:

-a failed drug test for a banned PED

-UKAD, on public record, trying to hold a hearing and stating a refusal of cooperation from Fury for over 18 months

...to say that did not happen is more than a strange position for you to take.

 

I don’t see it that way,not condoning it but I’m realistic to know that PEDs are part n parcel of the sport and in any case Wlad imo was a juice head too.

 

*- a failed drug test for cocaine, just elevated levels of nandrolene

- Didn't deny that happened.

 

You do realize that many to most failed drug tests in athletics are for "elevated levels," right?

If you have "elevated levels" beyond what is allowed, that is a failed drug test.

That is what happened with Fury. He failed a drug test for nandrolene (I'm not pretending to be an expert on this substance, haha; ultimately the substance [or byproduct] is irrelevant, but it is accepted to be a PED [obvious sign of PED]).

 

To me, it would as well. But there is clearly a distinction between the a failed test and elevated levels, otherwise they wouldn't have kept re-iterating the latter. To me, elevated levels is quite ambiguous, it seems to me they're not saying he "failed", but not saying he's clean either.
