diuretics............

Hit with the pointless retroactive ban! There's no penalty for using PED's so why stop?

diuretic used to mask steroids

So is the first fight annulled or what?

Exactly! This is lame. And they even allow Jones a return.

If the wont hand out a decent suspension, then they should give half of Jones's purse from the first fight to Lebedev.

I take Jones by KO on the rematch, Guillermo is a better fighter with peds or without them.
