    Other than missing weight I think he’s on the up and up. Still, very unprofessional to miss weight

    He would only have an "accident" if he named names

    This is just a warning shot being fired his way

    Ostarine is one of the most common substances found in contaminated supplements. You can test positive through sweat even.

    Does anyone ever admit taking PEDs after being caught?

    The fight will probably be denoted as a "no contest" assuming further tests are positive for ostrich blood.

    Trace amounts of ostarine from a nutritional supplement for a couple days doesn't invalidate the win for me and I'm sure many others. But all that matters is if the decision will get overturned and I suppose that will happen regardless.

    I think other fighters who have been unintentionally 'enhanced' have had their fight results maintained (like when Jones failed two tests in the UFC due to supposed 'pulsing')

    But ya I expect it gets overturned so you're likely correct.

    This is exactly why I never pay any attention to the PED allegation nonsense.

    Even if true, it doesn't make nearly the difference most seem to think anyway, and often the allegations are false, as seems to be the case here.

    It's just irrelevant noise to me, and I doubt PEDs have ever changed the outcome of a single boxing match

    For me initially failing for 19-Norandrosterone then being cleared screams contamination. How do you find it then not find it. But ya he will get a suspension of some sort and Devin will get is zero back. Same thing happened to Amir Khan. This will go down as a win for both fighters. Both got paid.

    Isn't it bad generally for boxers to built muscle anyway? The only advantage I see is to cut weight. They seem to be worried about boxers health. I mean they are getting brain damage every time they box.

    He is an 8 figure payday fighter. If he is to stupid and takes over the counter supplements instead of having a professional provide it to him then he deserves what ever punishment for testing positive.

    :facepalm::lol: Oh look, another guy who tested positive is actually innocent?
    When will the PED tests actually catch someone red handed? Besides Jarrell Miller, that is. But hey, even he had the nerve to protest the results.

    Building muscle is also a part of recovery, if someone can rebuild muscle quickly they can get more training sessions in a week.
    Also when you lose fat in training you also lose muscle its unavoidable Ostarine prevents this... these things arn't trivial and will give a decent advantage

    Don't they stop taking them at a certain point before a fight. This was the rational when Mayweather was using an IV the night before his fight. My initial thought was Ryan was using right after his next to the last test in a desperate attempt to make weight. My thought is Boxing is like NASCAR. The object is to cheat without getting caught.
