    a trump supporter will have someone help out with the B sample.but, I'm predicting now they will claim contamination (not sure if ostarine is sold in the usa I think it's not) If not he can claim he got legal vada supplements from canada.

    either way ostarine isn't why he beat Haney. I don't like the idea of people cheating and I DISLIKE Ryan a lot but I'd hate to see Haney win the lottery here. He will always be Ryan's *****.

    also requoting to touch on all his fighters. they all test for an boat load of peds even illegal in Mexico and it's a boat load and then the test comes back magically clean. I never cared for Ryan but I just don't want his big win to be erased.

    Haney taking the high ground is hilarious. He boils down to 140lbs then rehydrates to 165lbs+, that screams obvious PED use itself

    I don't expect much common sense from a guy that is supporting the 2 biggest fraud in Boxing, so no point in argue with such people.

    But yet everybody cared when Canelo popped, despite the well known meat contamination problem in Mexico. After years and years of fans accusing Canelo of being a drug cheat and constantly bringing that up, now the same people are trying to sweep this Ryan Garcia situation under the rug, like it's no big deal. :facepalm: Fans are fickle, they pick and choose on who they feign outrage over based on their own personal feelings towards certain fighters.

    And isn't it ironic that the same day Fishnets decides to bring up Canelo's two failed tests, after years and years of defending him on that, the same day it turns out that his golden goose fails two tests after the biggest win of his career. The irony.

    The reason the fight goes on even if the pre fight test is dirty is because the results do not come back within a couple of days. It takes 10-14 days.

    Stop with the conspiracy nonscene and trying to frame Garcia as the victim here.

    It's bad enough that he deliberately missed weight let alone failed drug tests.

    Garcia hurting Haney has nothing to do with drugs. It started in the round 1

    And why nobody was talking about that before the fight ? why did they even take a fight with missing weight Garcia ?

    First coming in overweight, now popping drug test. Athletic commissions need to make an example of this clown. Who by the way does himself no favours with his poor attitude. This is a regulated sport with rules. No favours for Garcia.

    Sounds like Garcia cheated in more ways than one. Makes sense why WBC have left Haney as champion.

    Boxing is a continuous disappointment these days.

    It's never without some sort of controversy. It's even being predicted that Fury vs Usyk will end in controversy.

    Agree fully. It should be noted that ostarine tainted supplements is very common, I'll pass judgement when the facts become available.

    Has anything been made official? Wouldn’t that make this fight a no contest?

    With that said, I’ve been saying for a while there’s nothing stopping a rogue chemist to tamper with samples, as in, the chemist would take the sample, drive around the corner, park the van and start tampering. Who’s to say that hasn’t happened before? Who’s to say a sample hasn’t been tampered with in a lab and later released to suit a certain narrative?

    Who’s policing these anti-doping agencies? Are they policing themselves? If they’re policing themselves, the situation would be wide open to corruption.

    It’ll be interesting to see how this pans out.

    Similar to when Khan popped for Ostarine, I will say the same thing; Ostarine is an off the shelf SARM which is more likely to be used by the meatheads at the gym rather than a professional athlete. If a professional, connected athlete wishes to dope, then they will use the stuff that really works as opposed to something you can buy at a dodgy supplement shop. I often view the contaminated supplement excuse with incredulity however I think it is likely here.

    I, for one, have never heard an athlete deny cheating and use 'tainted substance' as a reason for failing a drug test. We should believe Garcia and forgive him.

    Haney is ugly.
