    Exactly my point why after this length of time has the result not been changed to NC if this is correct

    the WBO sees all test results... why is it months after the fight its a news report that breaks the story (if its true)
    it doesnt make sense at all to me... it doesnt take months to get results and the results go right to the WBO.... something smells funny here

    TV3 showed the official "test" documents.
    Clearly they showed a banned substance.

    Monte should be stripped and there should be a rematch.

    I predict BOMBS will be thrown!!

    You're closer to this stuff than we are, but I get the distinct impression that the sanctioning bodies don't want to get involved unless someone else makes a stink. The Roy Jones results came out years after the failed test and the only reason nobody really knows what happened is because nobody bothered to follow up since both fighters failed.

    Strange time to start taking peds..... Fight clean against Wlad,Valuev,Haye,Solis,Rahman and then feel the need to cheat against a shot Tua who hasn't had a top level win in about 10 years..... I dont buy it :nono

    Barrett admits to using the workout supplement 1.M.R., a nitric oxide powder sold over the counter at GNC, but says he was unaware that it contained any banned ingredients. He also says he was using the supplement when he fought Charles Davis to a lethargic draw in January of this year, and did a drug test then that came up negative.
    “If I would have failed a [urine] test, they would have never let me leave out of New Zealand with those belts,” says Barrett.

    “I’ve never been a cheater,” says Barrett. “I bust my butt. I sparred 125 rounds; I ran countless miles; I trained countless hours; I put so much work in,” Barrett says of the fight in question. “I busted Tua’s butt fair and square: that’s the bottom line.”

    Barrett claims that a broke and desperate Tua is at the end of his career and is trying to distract attention from his own shortcomings.

    “Tua’s whole career has been excuses. He has never lived up to his potential that New Zealand thought he would be,” says “Two Gunz.”
    “He never was world champion. He never really fought the fight that put him over the top. And it’s not because of nobody else, it’s not because of drugs or his opponents – it’s because of him. He’s a lazy ass. He’s a lazy ass fighter, and he doesn’t apply himself and he doesn’t train hard.

    “If he want me to, I’ll move to New Zealand, train there for the whole time, and he can watch me eat, watch me train, watch the supplements I take, and I’m still gonna bust him down,” says the angry Barrett.

    “Tua is an emotional queen. He’s the Queen of New Zealand.”

    It's hard to equate a nitric oxide powder you can buy at GNC with illegal PEDs of the Victor Conte variety.

    Barrett was using the same thing earlier in the year against Charles Davis and his test came up clean.
