    McCline steroid scandal?
    Heavyweight contender Jameel McCline, who is set to challenge WBC interim heavyweight champion Samuel Peter on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, has been accused of receiving more than $12,000 worth of steroids, human growth hormone and related drugs. Citing an unnamed source 'familiar with the clinic,' the New York Daily News is running with a story that alleges that McCline received testosterone, Stanozolol and Nandrolone, along with human growth hormone and Tamoxifen between March 2005 and December 2006. NYSAC chairman Ron Scott Stevens plans to huddle with the Attorney General's office to see what effect the allegations will have on Saturday's fight. McCline has never failed a drug test.

    Shouldn't this be the issue?

    testing is a joke because its NOT year round and random.

    Frankly, I have no idea what the scoop is, other than that which was posted on fightnews.

    99% of the riders of the Tour de France 1999-2006 had been tested clean.
    But it's common knowledge that at least 75% did use banned substances.

    These tests mean ****. Only the dumbest athletes fail these tests.

    EDIT:
    Shane Mosley cheated five days before the ODLH fight and passed the drug test.

    The last line is important. "has never failed a drug test."

    Is the Daily News a reliable rag?

    You're on this crusade against steroid users. You don't even talk boxing without bringing it up. You just need to get laid or something cuz it's pretty pathetic already.

    The fight will still go on, they will do the proper testing after the fight, if Mccline wins it might end up being ruled a "no contest", either way Peter still keeps the title. There should be no reason this fight shouldnt happen unless Peters handlers refuse to fight Mccline because of his recent involvement with illegal substances.

    That was the same thing I was thinking. I would be shocked though if the bout doesn't take place. Worse that might happen is that they make it a non-title fight for Peter, and deduct some money from McCline's purse. However, I don't think even that is going to happen because McCline has never tested positive!

    No matter who squealed the Feds are at the root this. There's been a lot of activity on the banned substances front lately and lots of recent interviews going on. Anytime the Feds interview someone the last thing you want to do is lie to them about anything. They'll give you five in the slammer just for lying and there's been some rolling over going on. Marion Jones made the mistake of lying to the Feds and now she's facing 5 years. With the new surveillance powers and people squealing I think we're just seeing the beginning of a lot more names going down.

    This fight is in a real quandry. It's going to be seen as tainted if McCline wins.
