    What kind of message does that send though? It undermines the purpose of OST. Its a bad look for the NSAC and boxing as a whole. LPED is supposed to be earning a purse in the millions. God forbid he defeats Khan again.

      It doesn't look good but sometimes there is special rules. If Lamont had a low level of testosterone and needed whatever he took to raise them to a normal level and doctors approve it, I can't complain. We can't just assume that he was getting an added advantage until we hear professionals come out and shed light on it. That's why I say Khan should still have the mindset that the fight is still happening.

            Was excited for the rematch how lame. Khan should just move up to 147 at this point and fight Alexander then fight the winner of Ortiz/Berto.

                They found traces of "fake" testosterone in the test. However, they haven't complained about his testosterone levels being too high.

                Is this a separate test? or did lamonts doctor really even out his levels? if so, he's in the clear.

They won't clear him for no reason. If he's cleared, he has to be looked as clean and you have to hold the prior information as garbage.
                  I dont expect Lamont to be allowed to fight. The signs are pointing to the fact that he intentionaly cheated and this is the view of the majority of people. If the commission allows him to fight then that would solely be based on on monetary reasons.

                  Like I said if team Khan believe Lamont is using PEDs, they have every right to pull out and are even expected to by some. For instance if one of Floyd's opponentns tested positive and came up with a lame excuse I willing to bet Floyd would pull out since he is such an advocate in the matter.

                    About time. So the commission must have rejected Lamonts defence. Khan should sue his arse they've spent 5hit loads of money on this camp.

                      Floyd would be sued then too. If Peterson was cleared, Khan would have to fight him or probably be sued. It doesn't matter what the fighter thinks, he can't just pull out of a fight because he thought the excuse was bad. If the commission clears you, you're cleared.
