By Chris Williams: Saul Canelo Alvarez’s positive test result for the banned drug clenbuterol could be due to him eating a taco or an appetizer at one of his commitments, says WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman in coming up with a possible rationale for tested positive twice last February in VADA’s drug tests. Sulaiman insists that he’s not trying to protect the 27-year-old Canelo, and yet sounds very much like he’s doing exactly that by not exploring the possibility that he might have been using the drugs intentionally to get an edge over his opponent IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC middleweight champion Gennady ‘GGG” Golovkin, who gave him all he could handle and more in their fight on September 16 last year.
His father had amazing bandwidth and mental strength to run multiple projects at once, a self-made power-house that contributed to the growth of boxing, his son is barely filling up some aspects of his dads role. Also the lack of powerful charismatic promoters to pump up the WBC creates this whole weak status quo. When Don King and Jose Suleiman used to meet...Great fights happenned...
Suliaman has just told every fighter its ok to get back on the juice, because hes going to defend the drug cheats he likes.
Cinnamon is supposed to be a spice, used lightly. However, GBP is convinced the public are willing to go a Cinnamon Ala Carte forever...coumarin
Sulaiman has lost all credibility with his previous comments as well as these. In his position, he needs to just shut up and be professional. I wish he could be brought up on charges of corruption / supporting corruption, based on his comments alone. But that will never happen.
