    Anyway this whole fiasco shows what a weasel Hearn is. Any man with intregity would have tried to get another fighter at short notice or cancel the bout but not the event and pay Rivas his guaranteed purse.
    And then he would have blacklisted Whyte should the second sample tested positive.
    The BBBoC and Robert Smith also appear to be total sleaze merchants. Scary that they are in charge of British boxing. What a bent and corrupt game this is.
    By the way Tyson Fury will remain very quiet about anything to do with PEDs. We haven't forgotten that he is a drugs cheat who took Nandrolone for the Hammer and Klitchsko fights. And he tried to disguise it by taking cocaine knowing that the ignorant public would focus on that not the PED. He was never the champion. Just another scammer and bullsh*tter.
    I'm sad to say that MMA is much better run than boxing. And they are taking over.
    And Whyte is finished in England. And he is unknown anywhere else.

    Technically, it’s not a fair contest so with Hearn knowing this people have been robbed of the fair contest. First thing you learn in Science experiments as a kid is it has to be a fair test or it’s bull ****. This wasn’t a fair test if someone is on drugs and Eddie knew this so.....

    Sport is meant to be. That’s the whole point of it. Let’s swerve weight catergories then and get rid of a league system while we’re at it.

    So weight categories and league systems make sport totally fair ?

    Try asking a non Premier League club how ‘fair’ they think it is ? Where big money is concerned life/sport/business or whatever is never going to be fair.

    Not really. We where sold a lie by Hearn, he sold a fair fight. The big mac we where sold was dangerously tainted. I'd want my money back.

    Heavyweights who are gifted the physical attributes to compete are already the luckiest men in boxing. They never have to make weight, ever.

    If I was Usyk or Gassiev or any other of those smaller fellas planning to debut and take on these juiced up mountain men, I would be thinking twice. Both of them damaged before they have stepped into a heavyweight fight. It does make Deontay at 15 stones seem like some kind of freak.

    No it isn't.

    There was intentional deception and false advertising by Eddie and Sky. What happened on Saturday was akin to buying tickets to a music concert which was advertised as being totally live and then finding out after it was lip synced, would a fan in that case be justified in considering asking for a refund ?? I'd say yes.

    Fury was vigorously tested for the Klitschko fight and all samples came back clean so you've just made that up.

    The Hammer "elevated levels" case was shady at best. I'm not saying Tyson didn't take anything but the case was a shambles and neither Tyson or Hughie served any punishment.

    Yes, lots of things aren’t fair - doesn’t mean you have to roll over and take it. It’s why unions were created in the work place - & it’s why those who aren’t part of a union are treated like door mats.
    Very easy to protest against Hearn - don’t press the red button.
