The Day James Toney Failed a Drug Test

Craig Windsor, who never actually failed a drug test but admitted to using after Larry Oldbumwino snitched on him, is currently serving a near four year ban, whereas Roid Jones received no punishment at all, unless that is you consider a multimillionaire having to donate $250 to a few amateur clubs in Indiana constitutes punishment? What was Toney's punishment for testing positive twice?

 

WADA (aka World Wide Anti-Doping) code.

'But a few days ago, without stink or fuss or fury, Olubamiwo was given his licence back after serving just one year of his suspension. On 29 June he will return at his old battle ground, the York Hall in Bethnal Green, swinging bloodily and crudely and probably recording his 11th victory in 14 fights.

You may wonder how this can happen. Certainly, some in boxing do. Not everyone knows that the World Anti-Doping Agency's code allows for up to a 75% reduction in a ban for those whose evidence helps convict others. Olubamiwo certainly did.'

And he still received a one year ban despite him never actually having failed a test. Craig Windsor is currently serving a near four year one despite him never failing one either.

How long was Holyfield banned for having of tons of steroids in his possession?

What was Jameel McCline's punishment for being in possession of $12,000 worth of steroids and PEDs? He was back in action five months later

'Just prior to his bout with Peter, it was reported by the New York Daily News that McCline had received more than $12,000 of drugs including the steroids stanozolol and nandrolone, along with human growth hormone, testosterone and tamoxifen from Signature Pharmacy in 2005 and 2006.
