She may wanna reevaluate her relationship with Papoose.

Yep. Bad choice of boyfriend, he’s already bringing her down.

2nd hand smoke? LOL! You don't test positive for 2nd hand smoke from someone in the same room... PHUK OFF! It couldn't happen to a nicer person...

Does anyone know how long THC lingers in the system to be detectable in saliva after its immediate narcotic effects have subsided? Did she consume it just before her fight?

In any case, while marijuana may not enhance performance in the same way that steroids do, I think it can still benefit a fighter by calming nerves.
Even a tiny amount that gives mostly a placebo effect can be beneficial, I would think.

It could just as easily make a fighter completely paranoid, or even increase lethargy.

As we all know, the effects of weed can differ greatly among different individuals.

Weed is not cheating in any sport, not snooker, not football, they already accepted it in the NBA so everyone else should catch up.

Weed makes you smell poor. I prefer psilocybin

Whenever I'm driving, and I get the scent of weed, I look over and see a Nissan Maxima

But... but... Claressa's very own BF, Papoose himself said "you can tell by the smell in my clothes, I'm getting gwop" (Papoose, 'I'm Gettin' Gwop' - 2006).

How delicious the irony (broke-ass weed smell/positive test still ain't cheating, though).

Its kind of obvious by the way she carries herself that she's a degenerate low IQ scumbag that smokes weed.

[Roadblock]

Why are we even testing fighters for marijuana?

Yep its not what you would call a performance enhancing drug.

My mate , the late Kirkland Laing , who for you yanks , the man who boxed Roberto's head off in Detroit , never left home without it. I was with him in a club in Hackney , London three weeks before he beat Rocky Kelly and you couldn't see him for smoke . I wonder just how good he could have been if he didn't smoke , it certainly didn't help other than relax him.So if she's been at it , more fool her , It don't help the performance !

I think weed can be a useful PED for eating contests but that's about it.
