Canelo is going to get away with testing positive

He will likely get no punishment. USADA have accepted the tainted meat excuse for low levels of clen in cases where UFC fighters have been in China or Mexico. A fighter was recently suspended for 4 years for forging travel documents trying to make out he was in Mexico.Last edited by dsr; 03-05-2018, 06:36 PM.Comment

Several fighters have previously had positive test results dismissed or had drug test suspensions vacated because it has been known for years that cows in Mexico and China are treated with Clenbuterol.
Eating meat from those countries has caused trace amounts of Clen to show up in drug tests many times before. This isn't something ODLH invented today.
Yes, Canelo should have been more responsible. But ultimately the likelihood that this was caused inadvertently is so high that it strikes me as non-issue.Comment

Povetkin was put to the flames for trace amounts in his system.... this is no differnt.
The only difference is that Canelo is a cash cow here and will of course be protected.
GGG will fight him anyway, it is too much of a payday to pass up.Comment

they started to blame ggg and accuse ggg fans of being "scuuured". all while they have nothing to say about canelo testing positive. no mention of floyd. nada!!
had this been ggg or any other fighter, you'll see them giving props to floyd for paving the way, etc.Comment
