    Peterson - Khan 2 hasnt been cancelled yet. Comission will wait for material from Peterson camp, then make decision. Likely not until Wednesday.

    Schaefer said follow-up samples were taken from Peterson on April 13. Those samples came back negative for banned substances on May 2, Schaefer said.

    "There were follow-up samples taken by Peterson on April 13th. And the laborartory reported that the April sample came back as negative on May the 2nd. So while the first ones were positive, the second one showed a negative. And that really is all that we know," he said.

    Schaefer said Peterson’s attorneys are submitting paperwork this afternoon “explaining themselves” and why that substance was found in the fighter’s system.

    What he took in November was still there in March, but it's gone in April. OKAY. You have any idea what the 'cycle time' is for this synthetic testosterone?

    If it turns out to be 100% positive I cant see how the fight could ever go ahead because if peterson wins everyone will say it was the drugs it's a no win situation for the sport never mind the fighters or fans.

    This fight will be cancelled if it's 100% bang to rights.

    Even if it was a trace amount? The April 13th and The May 2nd results came back clean.

    Thanks. They were surprised with a test at the press conference and I was wondering if he simply didn't expect to get tested so soon. Still kinda fishy it was gone two weeks later now that they have admitted to taking it in the first place.
