    They've probably already asked him for a sample of everything he's used thus far to test for any contamination.

      Possibly he had been taking this stuff awhile back and just now finding traces of the tail end. That stuff can show traces up to 18 months.

        They're responsible for what goes in to their bodies, 100%....but I don't think they were maliciously juicing.
        That's excuse 101.

        "Honest, I did not take it knowingly", "Must be from something contaminated", "The steak I ate".

        You didn't really expect any of these to say, "Sorry I took it, please forgive me". Did you?

          I don't wanna sound like I'm giving Berto a pass unless VADA comes out with something. But Peterson did sound like he was trying to hide it.

            not possible. He had a clean test prior to this test.

              That's why year round testing should be done. So promoters know that the fighters are good to go before they and the networks even start spending money on promotion.

                Well this is good for Berto. Hopefully the fight can happen.

                  Maybe he passed the first one like lamont peterson did - remember peterson confessed that he passed even tho he did take something.Anyways this thing was still in bertos system Im confused if this could be in anyones system in small amounts or if you had to take a drug in order for it to be detected.

                    If the science shows that he didn't use it with intent and that it shows it came from something contaminated, that's fine by me.

                    The problem would be if it was only Berto saying that.

                      Sounds like someone got paid off.
