    From what I know PBC is actually on the up and up for testing
    And as you said fights are still playing out after positive tests and Slow Eddie has been known to do that
    Rivas for example against Whyte

      The biggest fight in 2024, Haney vs Garcia, was allowed to move ahead despite the positive test results. Barbosa was standing by and ready to replace Ryan, yet everybody wants to see the one they've been promoting for weeks, months. It happens everywhere.

            I have no strong opinion on this subject. Fans pretty much indict the ones they don't like but go cricket when it's their fighter that is suspected of doing it. So I'd rather just keep quiet.

              I’m actually a Morrell fan and do believe he will be victorious against Benny
              Hoping chit doesn’t pop afterwards

                I like Morrell Jr and I believe if it was any proof of this, it would have been out he ain't a star nor a big name to keep chit like this under the mat. If I was Morrell Jr, I would make sure to beat the chit out of benavidez and after the fight take him to court and sue his a$$ too. Of course he needs to win and be clean. I'll save my opinion until we get some real proof. Happy New year.

                    Garcia's positive test results came in after the fight.

                    If they'd come in before the fight wouldn't have gone ahead.

                      I wouldn’t be so sure about that as history repeats itself
