Roy Jones Jr knows best, WBC, Al Haymon and Wilder were doing everything they could to get out of this fight.

Possible scientific explanation is that after training for several weeks your body carries less water weight, which makes it easier to analyze substances in your blood.
If his first 3 tests took place on April 7th, 8th and 10th, while this one is from 27th, it is possible that his training played a role in it.

I'm glad that WBC is doing due diligence in trying to get to the truth instead of having a jerk reaction, one way or another.

Nobody knows anything for sure yet. Until WBC or VADA releases a statement of what they found out, anyone having a definitive opinion on this situation is an absolute fool.

No reason to be taking medicine that was made for heart condition when you don't have said heart condition instead was using it for training purposes and in fights since stamina boost

Yep, lots of people jumping the gun before an official statement has been released... myself included. Good post.
