Dillian Whyte should face criminal charges.

He'll get hit with a 5 figure fine thaty he can easily afford and 6-12 month ban which won't really matter because fighters these days can easily go 8-12 months between fights. And of course the ban will be retroactive to the positive test date, so that shaves off a few months there.Comment

Armstrong got sued for successfully lying under oath in a court dispute over bonuses.
The dirty world of boxing isn't touching Whyte.
Sponsors might have a claim. Maybe.
But who really thinks boxing is actually clean?Comment

How many have failed so many tests so often though?
Whyte has extorted millions out of boxing. It’s a disgrace.Comment

He hasn't though. He passed tests for those fights that he earned millions from. By boxing's definition he was a clean athlete.
He was cleared for Rivas at a hearing and then exonerated. We don't have to like that but it's true. Within the rules of the boxing board he was eligible to fight.
He's popped this time and it's cost him a lot of money. I'm assuming this one isn't even a matter for the board yet, it's probably terminated based on conditions in his contract.
Boxing testing isn't about who is innocent. Everyone is innocent. The rules say 'you fail the test to the levels that we establish and we won't allow you to fight'.Comment

What’s the difference?
He failed against Rivas and the fight disgracefully went ahead without Rivas being informed too.
Whyte should never earn another penny from boxing and should be ordered to repay earnings too.
