Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Rejects Any Claims He Took Steroids

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Cuban heavyweight Luis Ortiz (22-0, 19KOs) is fighting off claims that he took steroids prior to last month's first round stoppage of Lateef Kayode in Las Vegas. Ortiz's urine sample contained Nandrolone, an anabolic steroid banned in boxing.

The fight with Kayode was a WBA final eliminator. The WBA has suspended an order which directs Ortiz to face WBA 'regular' champion Ruslan Chagaev. Ortiz will get the opportunity to plead his case on October 27th, during a hearing before the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

So now it's the commission's fault. I'd respect this guy more if he just owned up to it.

i would rather see dingers than know the terrifying truth of which fighter is superior on a level playing field.

Props to the commission for cracking down these cheaters.

Change the last name to Johnson and he won't have any problem getting into the HOF if he's decent. E.g. Shane Mosley.

Somebody needs to tell this guy that in America, water is not introduced to the human body intravenously daily during training camp.
