Passing the buck like a child. Any fail should mean an immediate global suspension & investigation with full cooperation from the fighter.

Both Benn & Hearn should face hefty fines & bans the way they're ignoring the 2 failed test's blaming vada, the gold standard of testing.

Khan like everyone else is responsible for his intake , whatever that might be but has held his hands up and admitted to the obvious ,that it was found in his body so he is responsible whatever.The other pair of **** , Benn and Hearn are basically ignoring the British boxing Board and it seems are planning to let this fighter, who not only failed one drugs test but two
continue to box but just some where else. Eddie Hearn is above Don King and Bob Arum in the shytehouse stakes and is making a laugh stock out of our sport .I only hope the board find a way of banning this complete shythouse and his horrible arrogant cronies that surround him!

Robert "Jordan's biatch" Smith was too busy doing media tours regarding Benn.
We have to understand him.

Btw, Fraudy, as a foreign fighter(!), is NOT being tested by UKAD at all.

What does Ostarine do? "Ostarine attaches to proteins in the body known as androgen receptors. When ostarine binds to these receptors, it tells muscles to grow." OSTARINE: Overview, Uses, Side Effects, Precautions, Interactions, Dosing and Reviews (webmd.com)


Can you accidentally get this stuff? Not likely. From USADA: "Keep in mind that ostarine is not currently available as a prescription medication in any country. No matter what medical condition you have, your doctor is not legally allowed to prescribe ostarine to you as a treatment." Substance Profile: What athletes need to know about ostarine: USADA

Do some supplements contain ostarine? Maybe, but I haven't been able to find any on line.

It isn’t slow FFS! Drug testing, while always a step behind PEDS isn’t slow! They’ve been doing these tests for decades, know what’s out there, their forms, genetic makeups, half life, etc. If an athlete pops he/she pops. Every damned athlete tries their damnest to discredit a science, a test, that’s been used for decades to catch cheats. You never hear of this garbage in the NFL, in Pro Baseball, cycling, swimming, etc. A pro football player pops that’s it, suspension. There is no hemming and hawing it’s simply you’re suspended and the player association stepping in to reduce the sentence. That’s it. Boxing is corrupt as hell and until there’s a unified boxing commission that governs all boxing will succumb to the s h I t hole of history where it belongs.

It's funny how the tables have turned on Khan.
Ostarine is used primarily to cut weight fast & with ease.
He was trying to weight drain Kell and now it appears he was the one having trouble making weight.
And he knew full well he was taking a banned substance

The test is dirty before the fight and they know it. The B sample isn't taken after the fight, but it's only used in defense. The evidence has been there from the start, but NOOOO. 2 weeks later...
