Yes people do get busted. I wouldnt expect you to know all the names because some are domestic level but we've had:
Dillian Whyte
Enzo Macarinelli
Tony Thompson
Tyson Fury? (maybe)
Hughie Fury? (maybe)
Kid Galahad
Larry Olubamiwo
busted for some PED over the last few years.
The agency technically runs a 24/7/365 random testing schedule, but some boxers, like David Price, have said they rarely if ever actually get tested out of competition.
The other problem is what they do with a failed test. They dont release any info to the public until all appeals procedures are finished. Which, if you get the right lawyer, could mean years and years before anything is found out. The only reason we know anything about the Fury situation is because of a leak from inside. Tony Thompson also was busted year(s?) before anything was released and it was found out he was serving a ban. In which time he had fought in other countries.
So yeah good and bad. Not as bad as RUSADA, but not great either.
