    when will he appear? My bet is not immediately he will be too livid to speak in anything less than animal grunts and snarls.

    Make an amazing interview:

    Kugan: 'Frank, a difficult few days. What are the next steps for Billy jo?

    Frank: 'Raaaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhhh!'

    Out of interest what do you think their jurisdiction is for ruling a breach of contract? I get they would have the final say regarding a straight-up unambiguous failed test with A + B being positive but how are they making the final ruling on a contract drawn up between two promoters?

    They wouldn't, their only concern is the granting of a license. Any dispute over a fight contract would be settled in a court of law. The court in question will be stipulated in the contract itself.

    But the way i have read it, a breach of contract is their grounds for refusing the licence, not because of a failed test which the athlete must provide adverse readings for both 'A' and 'B' samples for it to be deemed as such. You see the ambiguity, right?

    That was my feeling the second you started transcribing what baseball guy was saying. Freaking tool (baseball guy that is, not you IB) thanks for doing this though IB. What customer service to your forum members :number_one:

    Completly agree, as if there isnt a unified universal stance/rules on doping. Mind blowing really.

    Forgot to add that by having these differences in what is acceptable and when its acceptable with doping is fcuking ridiculas, allows far to much scope for manipulation.
    Caught taking a banned substance, instant ban, titles stripped and last 3 fight results quashed fcuk cheat.

    I know this is a much easier way to get a title on one of his fighters, but I can't see Hearn being thrilled that the MASS commission just ruined his main event & possibly torpedoed his whole show. Who knows how many people will try to cancel their tickets or just not show up to see what is now a ESPN 2/FS1 level main event.

    Billy joe is kinda screwed at the minute he has said in past he wants to retire before 30 well he’s 30 next August and he clearly won retire by then but this weight cut is going to get harder as he gets older and he’s still not got that big money fight he wanted.

    Maybe his best bet would be to wait for winner of degale Eubanks and move up to fight winner of that on Bt sport ppv.
