    The fact that he didn't do this tells me that the details of the failed test are more damning than Hearns wants to admit.

    Can't imagine it's as simple as that as otherwise why wouldn't Hearn have informed Team Rivas? Obviously there'd be a blowback if they didn't and it leaked.

    It might have been? If Hearn was confident that procedure was followed and Whyte is cleared to fight, then the heat is off Eddie and he could have informed Rivas. The risk there is that they say "forget it, we're going home and we'll see you in court."

    How would he have been in breach of contract if he was informed that Whyte had failed a doping test, mate?

    Bottom line is he wasnt told
    Not much more to it

    Its scummy low life behavior to not give the other party the knowledge
    Forget the loop holes blah blah thst might get thrown back at me

    Its all to do with finances
    Every single choice made here leads back to money

    According to Hearn, they didn't, as per the rules (which are wrong imo), have to inform TeamRivas pre-fight. Only the BBBoC and one other whom I forget.

    The rules have to be changed so that both fighting parties are made aware of the situation at hand.

    Edit - They had to inform UKAD / VADA, too.

    They didnt have to which like you say is wrong in itself
    The fact they also chose not to is probably even worse

    Whole thing bloody stinks and i hope matchroom pay dearly for the choices made

    Somebody on that board had a huge issue with it. That's why they leaked it to Hauser ffs.

    Boxing is and always has been corrupt. Look at the state of the AIBA and Olympic boxing if you think these organisations can't be corrupt.

    A bit like Eddie's rematch clause with Ruiz. #stillnonews

    I'm not sure where the corruption you suggest exists in this post, just sounds like Economics to me.

    Fully justified in pulling out of a fight his opponent rightly or wrongly had been cleared to take part in, in turn breaching his own contract.

    Mate I like to follow an auditible trail of logic, now we all concede that it may have been unethical, although we still do not have full details of the failed test.

    However, I would like to know who is liable for telling Rivas, and what law exists stipulating that Rivas must know in a situation like this.

    Surely those qualified elder, specialists, wise men of the round table at the NADP must have said something???

    "I hearby order Dillian Whyte to inform Rivas"

    or

    "We, the council of supreme elder wisemen on anti-doping activities and the law of man will hereby inform Rivas of the adverse findings"

    Clues in the words "delayed his imprisonment" you whack-a-mole Eddie FC shill.

    Getting a bit bored of this recent influx of weird and wonderfully named new accounts - who all post in a suspiciously similar vein to Tony Hayers.

    Economics shaping an ethical decision on a fight in which one fighter has failed a drugs test is corrupt.
