Some reports that Joe Parker is cleared to come back. Not sure if true.

    Imagine being a professional athlete and your best defence is essentially, ‘My nutritionist had a fairly serious cocaine habit

    If that were the case they wouldn't have suspended him in the first place would they?

    That was VADAs finding on the matter. Unless they're some how in on it

    Okay, how did they verify contamination was from the nutritionist and not from Parker himself?

    People pretend to like Parker for the same reason they pretend to like AJ: Parker is not perceived as a threat to their favourite fighter in a fantasy matchup. Against a good prime opponent he will either turn up to box to a points loss, or get KO'd in the 11th. He has the attributes to beat David Tua for instance, but knowing Parker he'd get sparked in the 11th while ahead on the cards.

    I think Hemi Ahio would be a good comeback opponent for Parker.

    Ask them. They're the one who did the investigation...

    Not sure why you hate Parker so much. He beat the brakes off Wilder who is likely to be inducted into the HOF and remains the only boxer to outpoint him.

    You brought up VADA’s findings. You ask them, you verify them, and then we can talk

    Lmao really? If you want to question VADAs credibility, then you do it. I don't represent them.

    Seem to be a John Holmes wannabe. One of those "don't cloud the issue with facts, my mind is made up" types.

    By the way "Little John", Holmes died of AIDS, enjoy you future.

    I’m crying at you trotting out VADA’s findings like they descended from the heavens, only to start tripping over your own words the second somebody asks how those findings were actually verified

    Hopefully you’ll finally be able to provide “the facts” on exactly how they verified that the contamination came from the “nutritionist.” Take your time, babe. I’ll wait

    I'm not tripping over words. You're questioning the credibility of an organization I have nothing to do with and expect me to prove your lazy assertion wrong. An investigation was conducted, and Parker was cleared.

    If you don't think they're credible, then back it up.
