    Garcia didn’t cheat in any way. Devin just got his ass whooped. BADLY. The usual suspects just can’t come to terms with that. Too bad soo sad.

    So that has to mean the others were tampered?

    What other conclusions can be drawn.

    Help me here........

    We have to wait and see with the B samples.

    He still technically failed twice for Ostarine, just because further analysis proved he didn't take Norandosterone doesn't mean he didn't take something else.

    If the B samples come back clean then it was simply a case of cross contamination at the lab which is why B samples are taken, to ensure athletes don't pay for mistakes made at the lab. But if it comes back with another adverse result then it pretty much confirms Garcia cheated.

    But in the end this is the US, he'll get a 6 month ban and then be right back like nothing has happened.

    If his brand of supplement he took is tested and comes back tainted without them labeling on the bottle he could be cleared as well, which I think he's doing (getting it tested).

    When you go against the establishment they will fight back by any means necessary ,if Garcia is cleared of doping what next a fatal car crash,let’s not all act like it does not happen. Garcia being so vocal and his brashness has basically giving them two fingers and they do not like it !

    Yeah that's always a possibility, though I'd hope any professional boxer would be using a supplement that is certified for professional sports and so is already batch tested before sale. So even if the B sample is positive that doesn't mean he took it intentionally but it would mean he did fight while unknowingly enhanced which still invalidates his win over Haney.

    One test down one more to go
    His best shot is an appeal of fair use by supplying & testing all supplements he had leading up to the fight.
