STUNNER! 9 fights. 18 positve PED tests!

[BattlingNelson]

In some astonishing news, all of the 18 boxers who fought on the busy Golden Boy card on September 12th have tested positive for banned substances by the Nevada Athletic State Commission. The busy bill was a prelude to the immensely successful Mayweather v Alvarez PPV with the Thursday night event packed with Mexican and American fans in Las Vegas for fight week. Shawn Porter v Julio Diaz headlined the MGM Grand card in a welterweight rematch as well as a high profile draw between super-middleweights Badou Jack and Marco Antonio Periban. There were incredibly no exceptions as all of the 18 boxers who participated that night failed the routine tests for as yet unspecified substances.
Shawn Porter v Julio Diaz (Porter UD)

Hot damn. We have a problem.

EDIT: The source has removed the content, so it's likely and hopefully just trash.

DAMN!!!

Charlo, Spence, and DLH man.. come on now!

This is gotta be one of the worst findings ever for the sport.

Either PED use in Boxing is more rampant than previously imagined or some of these tests were contaminated during processing or retrieval.

Considering the identical results of all the alleged PED offenders, I speculate the latter rather than the former.

Wow.

I actually thought I remembered reading they all tested Negative? Not sure if Boxingscene released that story?

Crazy news if true.

[Weebler I]

If true, ban them...

[DoktorSleepless]

I doubt it. I'll wait for a more credible source. This site calls itself a tabloid for god's sake.

Wow.

Crazy news if true.

That was a different card, for the Shawn Porter vs. Julio Diaz fight. EDIT: I'm a dumbass, somehow missed Porter vs. Diaz in the list.

I don't know, this almost seems su****ious the other way. Every fighter in 9 fights testing positive? They can't all be that ******.

Boxing?

Dirty?

Say it ain't so.

Jleon Love did fail his test from the Mayweather ppv undercard I know. He faces a suspension. Golden Boy will be hurting! Again!

either a bad source or there was something wrong with the testing. i know PED use in boxing is higher than most ppl think, but 18/18? that just seems too unlikely to be true.

especially considering some of the matchups, just doesnt make sense to get on something and risk being caught only to fight some guy you could beat on our worst day.
