Khan banned for 2 years

This sport is just dirty from top to bottom.

 

Ostarine is really effective and not very toxic. It's one of the better SARMs, can see why a PED abuser would use it.

 

Shalom on talksport saying he found out h the is morning. So did the board. Shows what a shitshow this is

 

I think most are, I think there are exceptions to this. But it's so cloudy, they could all be on it.

 

That is crazy. So in essence Khan could have rematched Brook?

I don't understand how the BBoC wouldn't have been made aware. This means that UKAD do not notify the BBoC when a fighter fails a test?

 

The sport is honestly a joke. They should be doing full tests (with quick results) even if the profit levels of a show are affected.

Khan knew he was shot, never fighting again so geared up knowing it wouldn’t come to light prior to the fight. And still got a pasting.

 

There are no boxers in the world elite today who don´t take performance enhancing drugs.

They all do it.

 

I'm beginning to think that the cynics that claim most are on it might have a point now. This is simply too routine.

Pathetic behaviour.

**** me

 

Like giving me a 3 match ban in the premier league.

 

Buddy, it's been happening for years.

Think Hatton lost all that weight purely due to dedication and a good meal plan? Floyd got nabbed with an IV. Manny's head grew like the base of a Subittio figure. Think Fairy really ate Boar? Think Canelo did the same? Think Calslappy wasn't on it?

The demand on a boxers body, which isn't even close to a mixed martial artist (same goes for workout volume) is too great to recover from naturally. Morning runs, afternoon sparring, nightly strength & conditioning, drills, technical work... you won't recover from that with a banana and milk.

I did say in another thread that there are plenty of other big fights that went ahead after failed tests, BIG fights that we all sat and watched.

Hard to believe the board and promoter etc didn't know.

 

Anyone else think this reeks of a cover up from Shalom and Robert smith, after how shaloms faux outrage on Benn Eubank and Robert Smiths approach to the Benn saga? "We've just found out" Yeaaaah..... sure.......

(**** all drug cheats).

 

I've always wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt for obvious reasons. The main one being that I can't square how they're willing to lie straight to people's faces. That's not an easy thing to do unless you're a sociopath like Eddie Hearn. But clearly it doesn't bother them and given the fact this is only just coming out you can see why. There appears to be industry loopholes that protect them so they're not even expecting any comeback.

It's the fact it's top name fighters too. They've got brands to protect but it's just too often now for me not to think it's openly abused. You've mentioned some good examples all the way back to Floyd/Pac/Hatton but you've got BJS in a world title clash, Miller in what was going to be a huge event, Benn the same, Whyte on a PPV. The persistent rumours that surround certain gyms. The list goes on. They can't all be thick chancers - it must be because behind closed doors things are a lot more casual than the shiny, virtuous product we're being sold and they don't see it as a big deal.

I've never been a huge Khan fan but this is disappointing. He had a good career given his limitations but it's tarnished now.
