    is any of this a secret? was canelo not suspended? were the tests invalidated?
    it does not matter, nowhere in the future will you ever read that canelo was cleared of his positive test results for clenbuterol, and therefore innocent of cheating, ever. it only matters to guys like you who are only interested in mitigating the damage done to his reputation, which also doesnt matter as you are outnumbered thousands to 1.

    The suspension was merely a formality, and when the postive test was first announced, many fans didn't think Canelo would be suspended, because other Mexican fighters who tested for trace amounts of clenbuterol in the past weren't suspended.

    So, because he was suspended, that proves that he cheated? It was clear that a 6 month suspension was standard in Nevada for any positive test, regardless the situation, and the suspension had nothing to do with whether Canelo ingested contaminated meat or actually cheated and took clenbuterol pharmacologically.

    And lets be clear about something, this doesn't matter to me, I'm not the one accusing Canelo of being a drugs cheat. This only matters to those who want to believe so bad that Canelo so-called cheated, and they come on here and seek the confirmation bias from fellow Canelo detractors so they can continue to daydream in GGG la la land.

    I might be inclined to believe a word you say if Canelo's trainer & team were not BUTCHERS !!
    They are well aware of Clenbuterol being in the beef trade to claim it was accidental is ludicrous. My only answer to you is MOOOOOOOO!!!

    This 'Trace amounts of Clenbuterol which were consistent with meat contamination'.

    If this is true.....

    Why would you 'fail' a test?



    Let's say the 'Trace amount from Meat Contamination' is 0.5mg.......

    Surely anything under that 0.5mg isn't a fail, and is allowed?

    Canelo's resume doesn't match his hype, his best win since 2015 is Cotto.

    Canelo suspended!!!! He was given 6 months time off to get his knee surgery done. Very Convenient huh ???
    Now if youre talking unfair punishment try the case of Tony Margarito. He was banned for TWO YEARS!! & had his good name & career tarnished on a blatant lie & a very suspect State Commission. All anyone could prove he did wrong was SWEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Cause this excuse is just the norm for those caught with PEDs nowadays,either it’s the meat or a tainted supplement right?

    ‘‘Tis an example of being stupid” it’s like living in Texas and not knowing it gets hot.

    of course it matters to you, who do you think youre talking to? i read your posts, i know where your energies are concentrated, so be aware that youre talking to someone smarter than you, before you try conflating arguments that have worked with less informed posters. you need to step outside what you see, and recognize what others see as well.

    One swallow doesn’t make a summer nor does one tainted steak make a blown up Canelo.

    lol oh so you're smarter than me are ya. Wow, those are big words. It doesn't matter to me as much as it matters to those who think he's a cheat. It's real simple : he hasn't been proven or confirmed a cheat. For better or for worse, the meat contamination problem in Mexico makes it impossible to know if someone who tested positive there was cheating or not.

    Given that, anyone trying to argue that he is a confirmed cheat or anything to that effect is inherently gullible and/or biased. Most of these people who make these claims are GGG fans who have an obvious incentive to not only claim Canelo is a cheat, but regularly make excuses for GGG complaining about the judges, DLH, etc.

    I don't see how eating at a restaurant is an example of being stupid. The act of going to a restaurant is a very normal thing to do. But even if you wanna say that, that Canelo was stupid for going to a restaurant and eating meat, that's not close to "drugs cheating".

    yes, i am smarter than you, just like those smarter than me can tell when debating me. im not bragging or insulting, it is just a fact that could be proven, should you feel the need.
    it is not impossible to tell if someone in mexico who tested positive is a cheat, they tested positive didnt they? are you saying they shouldnt even test mexicans because results dont prove anything anyway? is that your line of reasoning?
