Dillian Whyte tests positive for banned substance

Unfortunately Whyte has the right to have his B sample tested. This process takes time and in the meantime no charges can be bought against him. Therefore he has been cleared to fight by UKAD. I don't agree with this but this is the legal process involved.

I do however feel UKAD, BBBoC and Matchroom have a moral obligation to inform Rivas and his team of the result. It seems however they did not and I am unsure of the legality of this.

 

Andrew McCart from IFL saying he will put an interview with Eddie up around 10pm

 

I'm assuming somebody told Whyte the amounts he was taken wouldn't be that they high so would pass a test.

Dumbass for believing it.

 

No chance he just cheats routinely and got rumbled?

 

I reckon the BBBOC won't be so forgiving the state based fighters are different though and they can get away with it easier.

 

It's another example of where UKAD policy needs to change. Look at the Fury fiasco. In reality he shouldn't have even been allowed to fight Klitchko as he popped dirty prior. That whole situation took ridiculousy long.

Why cannot the BBOC not just suspend a fighter pending further enquiries. Not saying one is guilty just until all the facts are known its too dangerous to allow a fighter to enter the ring.

The commission do not enforce the ban UKAD do.

 

Wouldn’t he just go and fight in the US though mate?

 

Because they have the right to have their B sample tested and until that is confirmed as positive they can fight.

Check the link to the article I posted before it explains it there.

 

Yes is suppose he could if he can get in the states ok, does he have some previous criminal charges or am I thinking of Chisora who was unable to travel there ?

 

No I am speaking shite he already fought in the USA once before must be someone else I am thinking off.

 

Controlling bodies pppphhhhtttt.

You can eat this drink that etc etc

They decide what is good or bad and tell you accordingly and the majority believe it...

It was decided in the UK recently that eating fresh "FRUIT" is bad for you because it contains "SUGAR"!!!

If a fighter or anybody else eats, lets say a tangerine, some daft cnut is going to tell you it is bad for you and you will fail a test because you are eating a banned substance....

You cant even have a diet of fresh fruit without it being on a banned list....

Ohhhh the sheep.....

 

I get that and in usual circumstances understand why. Where I think it should be up for dispute is if the A sample comes back so close to the fight like this has. There would be no time to then have a hearing, request a B sample and get the result prior to the fight.

 

lost a lot of respect for Hearn last year or so.

These promoters need to have some morals rather than excuse anything so that it doesn't cost them money.
PEDS in boxing is rife & someone else could have life changing injury or be killed.
