      For sure, supplements are contaminated a lot of the time that’s just a fact.

      But to fail 3 times for a tainted supplement, you’re either using or you’re just a straight up idiot.

        Did they at least name the specific supplement and the brand? There should be transparency when it comes to that, so that athletes and even the general public know what company is putting illegal ingredients in their products.

        Sure. And they also want you to believe that a Bison can roller skate. Gimme a ***** break. Next up the other Matchroom cheaters Benn and Baumgardner. Let’s see what they come up with that. Baumgardner drank contaminated Flint water spiked with PED’s and Benn eats raw eggs like Rocky where the hens are given PED’s to fatten them up. This is boxing bruh.
        Except that clomiphene isn’t allowed in egg production in Britain.

        I’m very curious to hear the final verdict in the appeal of Conor Benn’s case.

          Whyte is back, he will get another big fight. Joshua -Whyte is probably next, after Joshua beats Ngannou.

            In Whyte’s case I’m inclined to think the latter tbh, especially when you consider his two-year ban for the first positive test was for a stimulant from taking Jack3D, a regular over-the-counter pre-workout supplement.

            I think a lot of the backlash Whyte faces is because his abrasive personality doesn’t endear himself to people. When you read into it (and the info is readily available online), his infractions are less sinister than the likes of the walking pharmacy Jarell Miller or indeed even Fury, who tested positive for an anabolic steroid that can only be administered via intramuscular injection and not ingested.

            Either way, it’s not a good look for Whyte who really doesn’t help himself at all.

              Whyte is another victim of zealous VADA testers cherrypicking who they want to expose.

              In reality, these testing bodies are supposed to catch at least one person a month. We're talking about trace minuscule amounts of substances that won't make any difference. There are even many cases where they reveal positive tests only when the fight is completed. What the hell is that?

                They're all using something. Common sense says they're pushing every single boundary.

                Science bans him and science gets him unbanned. I don't know that we can pick and choose which bit of the science we won't believe.

                If he's cleared to fight then he's cleared to fight. That's the definition of a clean athlete in boxing. It's the only definition that works as none of them would ever be considered clean by any other definition.

                  Or both. Either way you're right that 3 times makes any excuses way less believable, no matter the outcome of "investigations".

                    "Strict liability is the underlying principle of anti-doping: Boxers are solely responsible for any prohibited substance found in their system despite whether there was an intention to cheat or not."

                    Dillion single handed debunking its existence lol

                    he did it with UKAD & now with Texas commission?

                    impressive if so
