    Tyson didn't need PEDs, he was 190 lbs aged 13.
    He was big enough for his size.

    You can add Hughie Fury to the list, both he and Tyson ate the same ‘contaminated beef’ that led to nandrolone in their samples

    People give him a pass cause he didn't need steroids and cause his opinion has always been that steroids are useless

    Thanks.

    I'm having trouble editing my rankings post, since it claims it's over the word limit every time I try to open it. Will deal with it later...

    Now that I'm reading about it, the Whyte situation is odd since the testing org "cleared" him later in a public announcement. Not sure what to make of that whole situation. On the other hand, then he got provisionally suspended:

    Depressing how easy it is to just put a random contender's name in Google and find an article about something suspicious. For example, Joseph Parker missing a drug test:

    Andy Ruiz and a marijuana test:

    There are probably more.

    He had already been suspended earlier in his career for steroids or maybe a different type of PED. That was the second time and it would've been a lifetime ban in UK.

    Yep, that'll do it. I think I located the earlier one, and have added it. (https://www.bbc.com/sport/boxing/21968362.amp). Thanks.
