Ya'll just caught that???

Regardless of what commission testing positive this is the situation where a suspension should be in effect worldwide not in just one nation or group of nations ...takes more than 5 months to release a drug test results something smells fishy maybe they are Outsourcing the drug testing from the UK to Bulgaria...

To be fair at least you get a proper ban as opposed to the time between fights which seems to be the case elsewhere in the world.
Two years that's his career over, Whyte got years for drinking an over the counter drink, Fury got years .. why did he get that again ?

Browne, Canelo, Miller, Ortiz why they even bothering testing ... if you've just had a fight and the bans months its hardly a deterrent.

What the ****? That fight was 2 years ago! UK anti doping agency is a joke! Also this scumbag Molina ruined that event in Poland where he was meant to fight Wach! Boxing is one dirty piece of shyt!

I see No one is concerned with what the actual substance is. Molina had an interesting interview with Michelle joy Phelps explaining his side of the story,more credible than canelo I found.

Yeah but the person who suffer from this suspension the most is Wach. He doesn't have much time left in the game so every fight matters to him.

Every interview with MJP is interesting

Loma, GGG and Pacquiao never fail juicing tests...

But Canelo, Luis Ortiz, Shannon Briggs, Mosley, Vargas, etc. are all cheats.

That's true, but I'd make two points

1) Unfortunately those are the breaks. It's much better to have a rigorous drug-testing system so that we can move towards the goal of having a clean sport, even if it means a missed payday for the opponent of the fighter who breaks the rules.

2) Would Wach really want to fight someone who is using banned substance anyway? He might not care, but I'd say that he should

I remember seeing Daniel Cormier being told that Jon Jones had tested positive and that their fight was off - he immediately burst into tears. It's tough, but it's the only way.

As for Molina not knowing what he was putting into his system - if it is true then he is being punished for his own (and his team's) ******ity. Athletes really have to get used to the fact that they are responsible for what goes into their system. His reputation will not be as tarnished as if he didn't have any kind of excuse, but his penalty shouldn't be reduced in any way.

We need to stamp this **** out of all sport (but especially combat sports)
