Comments Thread For: Canelo is 'Temporarily Suspended' By NSAC Due To Failed Tests

[_Rexy_]

Sounds like posturing, so they can sound like they're taking it seriously, and I expect they'll probably clear him next week. But, we'll see....

That was my first thought. He will be suspended until a week before the fight

Uh oh, somebody is in trouble.

DAMN, I’m beginning to think they might cancel the fight. what a shame was looking forward to this fight.

I mean think about it. The NSAC saw the evidence and said something isn't adding up and needs further investigation. But in the meantime Canelo is suspended. What evidence can Canelo possibly show on April 10th to change their minds?

more like they heard whining about Canelo being protected.....

"Bob Bennett, the executive director of the NSAC, reacted to Golovkin's accusations when speak with the Los Angeles Times.

"There were no adverse analytical findings concerning performance-enhancing drugs or any other illegal substance [in Canelo's system for the first]. There are no instances since I've been at the helm where there was any prejudice, bias or favoritism toward anybody," Bennett said.

"We are strictly regulators. We have no interest in who wins or loses as long as the playing field is level."

..... so they made this (easily-reversible, temporary) decision, to silence the critics

It's a smokescreen to make it appear as if they're actually doing something. They'll clear him long before May 5th and the fight will still be on.

of course it is, buckle up for May 5th

Surprised, but ultimately I suspect the contaminated meat defense will stave off a more serious suspension.

We know clenbuterol is in Mexican meat and we know that plenty of studies have found small amounts of clen in people who have not dosed but have eaten meat in Mexico or China.

If this suspension lasts more than a few weeks, I'll be shocked.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

as expected, after their investigations he will be cleared of all wrong doing and GGG and Abel will be thanking their holy stars that the paycheck is there for them.

I started to worry that this might just be a way for Canelo to get out of the rematch now that GGG looks in better shape going into the second fight. People keep saying they will never cancel it, but something weird is going on here otherwise I doubt Canelo would have gotten caught in the first place. They never catch Mexican or American star money makers in boxing while they are still earning the business big money, so what changed here?

Or, maybe I am just reading too much into things. But this whole thing is... unusual, to say the least, if not su****ious.

like EVERY other post you make lol ?

They should at least do a fifa style investigation like when the Mexican soccer team got caught. They show where they were training at all the time, where the meat came from then go the place test the meat before they could let him off the hook.

97K fangirls hoping and praying the fight gets cancelled so he won't take another ass whipping.

It's off to fighting for peanuts for 97K. Blow Job Sanders? Lol.
