    Too late after the fight....get the tests right beforehand is what i say. Too much controversy about interference if the tests come up afterwards.

      Actually the DQ option instead of a no contest is not a bad idea. Neither is losing your purse you would get for the fight.

        I say a DQ loss. I've never agreed with the NC bs. If the guy cheated, then he lost. It doesn't mean the other guy is better or that he couldn't beat him without using the substance, but he DID choose to use it which is a violation of the rules. Therefore, he lost plain and simple. You'd see less of this if it counted as a loss.

          Teper-Price
          Sturm-Chudinov
          Browne-Chagaev

          Boxing is big ****ing joke really. While I'm at it, let's not forget the guys that tested positive before the fight and the fight still went on.

          Morales-Garcia II
          Vargas-Salido
          Stiverne-Povetkin (Stiverne later pulled out after Povetkin tested positive)
          Povetkin-Duhaupas
          Plus Mayweather's IV before the Pacquiao fight

          And those are just off the top of my head.
          Also de la hoya-mosley hasnt been changed

            The ones I posted are guys that failed post-fight drug tests.
