    People are already calling for lifetime bans for Whyte, but many top boxers in the past have got away with PED usage.
    • Fury took Nandrolone and blamed it on wild boar meat.
    • Canelo took Clenbuterol and blamed it on contaminated meat.
    • Floyd Joy Sinclair roided himself to the gills and flushed it all out using IV fluids.
    • Conor Benn multiple positive tests, yet seems to be cleared
    • Big Baby fell into a PED barrel but no lifetime ban
    Just a few examples but hopefully Whyte can continue his boxing career

    They are all taking something to some extend. **** vitamin C tablets don’t grow on trees either.

    Hearn didn’t like the fight just saying. Gun to your head, is Joshua clean?

    This is his third time getting caught in a system that is notoriously easy to skate around. This is more an intelligence test than anything else, and it is his third time failing it. Hit the road jack, and don't you come back no more.

    Couldn't make it up. Well, actually you could, I guess. Not what the British boxing scene needs right now what with all the shenanigans going on.

    They do all take something.
    I think they should do a one strike you are banned for life, or just drop the false pretense of drug testing.
    In a sport like boxing you can train with PEDs 10 months out of the year, then be clean for fight prep, you are NOT a full natty brah.

    He should get a permanent dunce cap for taking VADA testing and thinking he could get away with it for a 2nd time.

    What a clown lol, blowing that payday and retiring himself. I guess it shows he was coming to win though given that he was willing to jeopardise it.

    Wild boar truly raises your nandrolone levels. Anyway, it' Whyte's third time - he deserves no pass, but to be suspended for life.

    People like you should have there public voice redacted.

    Within an hour of the statement and that’s your words?

    Oh wait, you’re under contract, you’re getting paid.

    A hero amongst your species I’m sure.

    Anyone failing three drug tests in this joke of a sport must have the iq of a watermelon.

    He deserves a lifetime ban for being a stupid m***********, not for being on the sauce.

    This isn't a first or even second offence. He was lucky to be given the benefit of the doubt last time due to VADA tests coming back clear around the time of the failed UKAD test, but a 3rd failure clearly suggests he's a dirty cheat and has been for a long time.

    First offence you get a more lenient punishment but a 2nd proven offence normally means a more lengthy suspension, which will likely mean he's had his last fight as he's already 35 and will be too old once his suspension is lifted and he probably wouldn't be licensed even if he did try and come back.
