    I hope he didn’t do it , I really do

    But all this mess that has come about from the botched cover up has made it impossible for me not to doubt any result that Dillian has ever had, even if he gets cleared on a technicality

    I won’t be the only one who feels like this either

    I have nothing against VADA. VADA just isn't relevant in this case and I think you know that. VADA didn't test Whyte on the day he was found by UKAD to have been using PEDs. I imagine if VADA did test him that day they would also have found the PEDs that were in his system.

    Fingers crossed VADA get more funding and support to expand the good work they're doing in boxing.

    Can you share us your logic behind this?

    From where I'm standing, it's pretty straightforward: a previously suspended Whyte failed a PED test for two metabolites of a banned substance. Irregardless how it got into his system and who fend him what, the athlete is solely responsible to keep his body clean of banned substances which he failed to do. There's tape evidence of Whyte and Hearn discussing it and the BBBoC admits there was hearing related such failed test. There is no line of defense if something that shouldn't appear in your blood is found there.

    So why are there PED tests if you can pop up dirty, fight dirty, win dirty and still allowed to cash the check?

    I don’t believe that whyte failed in keeping his body substance free but at the same time I can’t confirm his innocence so i’m Somewhat on the fence for now

    there is a war going on between haymon and Hearn behind the scenes Eddie has tried to take over the US boxing scene with the dazn deal which haymon cannot allow at the moment haymon is winning as whyte may well get banned and Ruiz smashed Joshua for the belts putting every heavyweight title in haymon’s Hands except for the lineal championship which i’m Sure al doesn’t care about

    You don't need to. He's failed a drug test, period.

    So basically Whyte was tapering off roids and got caught by UKAD who is year round.

    Failure of a drug test doesn’t prove the fighter took drugs

    Prove me wrong

    Why does any have to prove you wrong? Instead care to explain how failing a drug test doesn't prove the fighter took the drug.

    The stance people take is simple. Your A and B sample both test positive its guilty. Your blood. Your DNA. Sealed and signed by you at the time blood was drawn.

    Not sure how this VADA news proves anything. UKAD failed him on a different date to the VADA tests. They've said absolutely nothing since. Like how long can it seriously take for them to say what happened? He failed or he didn't/. He gave a reason for it or he didn't. It was plausible or it wasn't. They requested the B sample or they didn't

    The WBC's obvious response:

    "Dear Mr. Whyte,

    Thank you for taking the time to send over the results of the various tests you undertook for VADA as part of our anti-doping program for your recent fight. Could you please now send us your results for the tests your undertook for UKAD?

    Kind Regards,

    The WBC"

    David Haye - “As far as I’m aware, from my limited sources, there was a hearing before the fight. Whoever was in that hearing was satisfied with whatever they heard and decided he was cleared to fight. Which means whatever happened in a test, he was still cleared”

    Go to the thread I started below, if you are interested

    Dillian Whyte. If he is clear with VADA would he then be WBC mandatory?
