    I really don't know about Canelo having a reasonable excuse here, we are talking about the number 1 draw in boxing at the time and still is to this day. This guys gets paid millions upon millions and your going to tell me that he cant buy good "beef "???

    I can understand the soccer team due to the shear number of athletes (players) that they have and there budget they probably skimped out but Canelo is 1 man.

    Regardless of what is going on in Mexico and there "meat problems" Canelo and his team knew about the "meat problem" and didn't do his due diligence to negate that and that's a fact.

    you cant then complain about GGG talking about your failed test. you failed the test GGG didn't do anything other then say you failed the test which is fact. I don't understand why some Canelo's fans (and I became a fan later on after he started to challenge himself)act like GGG is talking mess when its fact.
    Most people go on about their daily lives not knowing that ranchers are putting clen in meat. No one knows as about it until the day it affects them, I'm sure Canelo was the same way.

    I choose to give him the benefit of the doubt, but if you don't that's fine.

    Either way, in the prime of his career he has done extensive VADA testing and been clean every time. While looking even better than before the negative clen result.

      I don't give a **** about what Pacquiao did or didn't do. You're praising Canelo for testing, which is exactly what he should be doing given what happened. Do you think if he never tested positive, he would continuously test before every fight? or would he cancel here and there? Nothing stopped Canelo from being a Donaire and willingly do random 365 but that never happened.
      I'm praising Canelo for testing in the prime of his career and being clean the whole time (after the clen incident.)

      I know that when he was at his best he was clean.

      Same can't be said for Pac.

        I'm of the belief that if a fighter tests positive, they should be mandatory for random testing all year round, not just 8 weeks before fighting twice a year, but that's just me.

          It just goes to show how deluded fandom makes people “I give him the benefit of the doubt” seriously? How many fighters from his camp have also come up dirty? Fine, Canelo was smoke, the other guys aren’t screaming fire to you? Some of y’all are straight up hypocrits. You’ll sit up here trashing a fighter who regardless of speculation never failed a test, but hold a lower standard for a dude who has failed, been suspended for it and has a trainer leading the pact as having the most failed tests coming from his fighters than any other notable trainer in the past 5 years. Some of y’all would find your girls with his schlong in her mouth and somehow find a way of justifying it just to avoid criticizing him. He ain’t your bro, he ain’t your friend. The sport is bigger than him and fk any and all of y’all supporting anyone taking stuff in this sport getting busted and still being surrounded by it.

            ok…what about the rest of the Reynoso fighters to pop dirty? If you are giving him the benefit of the doubt for failing a test but somehow continuing to be around it, explain that to me. Please.

              i was just about to ask the same question. this isn't a one off case. its only a one off for Canelo, it's what 3 fighters (that I know of) to come out of the camp that have popped for banned substances.

                G isn’t knocking Canelo out on his best day. Pacquiao was an attacker/killer and that’s what did him in when he got knocked out You people are crazy if y’all don’t think all these guys aren’t taking some form PED”s. Mayweather being one of the main ones. Have any of you been in a fight before? How exhausted you get after just 30 seconds of throwing punches. Mosley blew his load in two rounds against Mayweather but whaled on that dip **** Margarito for 9 rounds… or how ever any rounds it was 9 or 10

                  You are delusional! There’s no doubt Canelo is a great fighter but to say that he’s far surpassed anything Pacquiao would ever dream to accomplish shows how ignorant you really are. Pacquiao was boxer of the year 3 times (2006, 2008 and 2009), boxer of the decade (2000 to 2009), the only boxer to hold world boxing titles in four different decades and became the oldest boxer to become a world welterweight champion and the only boxer in history to have won 12 major world titles in 8 different weight divisions. Don’t let your hatred for Pac cloud your judgment, you need to learn how to give credit when credit is due!

                    Mosley ***ed up going cold turkey thinking Mayweather’s USADA testing was real.

                      In a word NO! It is his destiny/karma for upsetting the boxing Gods and the greats who have graced the ring before him.
