Perhaps Charles Hatley would rather have fame than fortune and prizes, even if that fame comes for all of the wrong reasons.
The super welterweight contender has managed to jeopardize his chances of contending for Jermell Charlo's WBC title following a social media post that could force the World Boxing Council and the New York State Athletic Commission ahead of their Showtime-televised bout Saturday evening from Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Sometime after Friday's weigh-in, Hatley not only received an IV treatment - which is prohibited in according with the WBC's Clean Boxing Program, barring a filed exemption - but went out of his way to frame the moment on his Instagram account.
"Getting my @nutridrip to prepare for the big fight! Feeling amazing already!," Hatley posted on his Instagram, though the message has since been scrubbed from his timeline.
The matter is being looked into by the WBC, NYSAC and Showtime, all of whom declined comment at this time.
