Its highly embarrasing eh, hes pretty much been rubbing it in their faces and only gets caught due to a tip off. however if he was say a tennis player, or a snooker player he'd have bn busted years ago as for some reasons combat sport athletes seem to get tested far less for steriods than anyone else.

Its a damn shame. Its a black eye for the sport and I believe if they tested randomly everyone in the top 20 of every division today you would see a huge percentage of cheats caught out. Nobody seems to care as long as their fighter is winning. Damn, they're handing out 12 month bans for people smoking weed, yep that great performance enhancer. But cheat for 6 years with EPO and HGH among other things and only get a 4 year ban.

read the article, they didnt catch him at all after 6 years. the only way they found him was because they were tipped off by the U.S. DEA.

Bloody hell! Mind you as others have said, "The War Machine" did look like a walking advert for roids. Shame because he had the best nickname in boxing.

It looks like we need a complete overhaul of our drugs testing in the UK if he got away with this for 6 years, that's appalling.

I don't know who "they" is, but can only I assume you mean British members, and I resent the implication that we're racist.

I didn't mean the british members, I meant the anti-american members.
