    Has there ever been a case that's been legitimately overturned? Can they even prove it?

    Either way depending on how big and famous the fighter is it'll get overlooked.

      It's a corrupt sport from top to bottom. Sanctioning orgs are corrupt. Refs are corrupt. Judges are corrupt. Testing bodies are corrupt; they're selective in who they want to expose. Why are positive tests only revealed when the fight is over? Ain't that ******? What's the point of testing anyways? And why was Conor Benn's fight with Eubank canceled on the eve of the fight and not allowed to go ahead, while others did?

      And if you believe most fighters are PED users, aren't these testing bodies supposed to catch one fighter at least every month? They're cherrypicking who they want to expose, don't they?

      Even fans are corrupt. They don't celebrate when their fighters are the ones tested positive. They also play crickets.​

        Alot of truth in that. Can I say that Devon Haney is not guilty of corrupt Shyte? It's the powers that be: the judges, refs, promoters. He did his job, he laced up his gloves and went to fight regardless of the outcome he was just doing his job.

          He’s a massive sellout. Sold his soul for 3 PPV headliners and a job on punditry.

            Bellew is the worst I think.

            Non-Matchroom fighter: “Ban them for life”.

            Matchroom fighter: “He’d never cheat, he’s one of the lads”.
            Not just that, Bellew was raking Beterbiev over the coals for NOT failing.

              He got caught after the Ruiz fight, not the Holyfield fight.

                Was a shame that really because we would’ve got Toney vs Valuev next. Would’ve been the weirdest stylistic matchup ever.

                      Believe you me ... make no mistake, Tony Bellew never NOT failed a PED test in his life. He PASSED them all ... without a shadow of a doubt.
