Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Fails Drug Test, Deontay Wilder Fight in Doubt

[champion4ever]

Hold the press! Limited information, but it looks like a false alarm. It appears Ortiz popped over some high blood pressure medication he normally takes. Apparently, the medication contains two banned substances detected in the VADA test. Looks like Sulaiman jumped the gun, and the fight is still on!

That substance is categorized as a masking agent; A diuretic to hide designer PEDs by the WBC/VADA testing program. Besides, if that was true then why didn't he request and receive a the****utic use exemption from the WBC/VADA testing program?

Ah shit.

He's done now, he's blown any chances of a big fight.

Seriously, if you're on blood pressure medicine, should you be fighting? How is this healthy? I'm sure there are a few negative side effects that come with this drugs.

Wilder is in a no win situation on this. Once again he's the victim of someone else's negligence. If this fight happen to continue and he wins, he'll be getting a win over an old man on blood pressure medicine. You might as well have Ortiz use a walker to make his ring entrance.

Lmao, Wilder is essentially the heavyweight champion by default since he's the only one not on drugs

LOL, on Twitter in Russian...

They reported of the news of Wilder/Ortiz. Someone asked... "Are all of these people afraid of Wilder?" referring to Povetkin, Ortiz, Wa.

Ryabinski, the head of World of Box/Promoter for Povetkin replies...

"Or is Wilder afraid of them?"

and the WBA...

However, the fact of the matter is currently Joshua isn't register for either one of them; Not the WBC or WBA. In addition, to my knowledge and I may be wrong but the WBA doesn't have a mandatory VADA testing program like the WBC has.

[Buckfever]

I don't understand why Wilder doesn't fight Joshua.

[champion4ever]

I hope it was nothing to stop the fight from happening (blood pressure meds).

They are called p1ssing tablets (diuretics) in order to rinse out any potential PEDs from your body. They are often used as masking agents to hide illegal drugs from your system.
