    So why are people so quick to assume that Morales deliberately cheated? Given the fact that only small amounts of clenbuterol were found in his system and that clenbuterol is found in meat in many countries, including Mexico, contamination is very likely the cause:

    "A majority of the players tested at the Under-17 World Cup in Mexico had traces of clenbuterol in their bodies because they ate contaminated meat, FIFA said Monday.

    Tests in Germany after the tournament revealed players from 19 of the 24 teams had adverse findings of the banned anabolic agent in 109 of 208 urine samples.

    FIFA medical officer Jiri Dvorak called the results "highly surprising" but insisted that teenage soccer players were not cheating.

    "It is not a problem of doping, but a problem of public health," Dvorak told reporters, adding that none of the players were harmed or put in any danger.

    FIFA and the World Anti-Doping Agency declined to prosecute any cases because the weight of evidence pointed to contamination."

    You'd think people would give a legend like Morales the benefit of the doubt until we get further information.

    Who ****ing cares?


    Every boxer in the world is doing everything they can legally, illegally, valid or invalid to get an advantage.

    You think people sleeping in oxygen chambers are doing anything different from people training in higher altitudes?

    Same **** for people increasing their red blood cells with injections.

    It is IMPOSSIBLE to police athletics on this level.

    1 enlarged heart makes someone a legal doper of the highest level.

    Are we all the sudden removing hank armstrong from the record books? No. He's on every top 10 of all time p4p list.


    You guys need to drop your reagan era "dare to say no" brainwashing and realize that boxing skills do not come from injections or magic rituals.

    Common excuse to, but WADA smarter than that, take no prisoners. Just so happens morales struggles to make weight last time round now he caught this time taking a substance that not only aids his weight loss but gives him other ped benefits to. Sorry to say this but he finally been busted. God is human after all :-(

    WADA actually declined to prosecute any of those cases due to the likelihood of contamination.
