Comments Thread For: David Benavidez Comes Up Positive For ******* in VADA Test

[Bronx2245]

Not Cool! We saw what ***** did to so many fighters of the 70s, 80s, and 90s! I thought the sport was past that!

You need ******* and baking soda to make crack *******!
******* by itself is called coke/*******.
You obviously watch too much TV and you believe everything you hear and see...
Crack is a street bum's drug. Benavidez is far from a street bum.
And so what if he wants to get high off coke... He's a grown man so it's his choice. IDK why too many fools on here are complaining about it.
It's his life and to each his own...

Ok, there is so much wrong with your response, I don't even know where to begin. You have no idea whether he snorted coke or smoked crack. If he smoked crack he would still test positive for *******, there's no drug test specifically for crack. Benavidez may not be a street bum but he's not immuned to crack. Plenty of celebrities have used or have been addicted to crack. Maybe you need to watch a little more TV, you would know crack is not only used by street bums.

Yeah you got a point. Can't argue with anything you said.
But just don't see Benavidez being a crackhead. Just my opinion though..
Now I can totally see him doing a few rails while having a good time........
I've done them a few times myself when I'm out drinking and partying.... Nothing wrong with that!
At least I don't think so...

[My Low Place]

What's it to you if he wants to do a few rails here and there...!! ******* isn't a PED so why you all butthurt over it??

again ******* can yield crack...end of story..

[My Low Place]

Guys like Arguello and Pryor were major coke heads lol

Coke isn't crack by any stretch. There are a lot of functioning coke heads out here. Not saying it's good for him or anything, but it's not all that bad either.

If it's an isolated event, he'll be fine.

i said it can yield crack

functioning coke heads...man enough already
enough excuses dude shouldnt be playing with his damn nose

again ******* can yield crack...end of story..

And?? Who cares if he wants to get high?? Why are you butthurt over it??

[killakali]

No fine. No suspension. He had no PEDs in his system. If he was doing shady activity LEOs would handle it. Leaving boxing officials to boxing matters. He should not be punished for trying to clean the sport up from steroids and PEDs alike

Just because its on a list does not mean it should be. I HIGHLY doubt PW had any success fighting high on coke, lol. High would last 1 round, and if you didn't have a heart attack, the remaining rounds would be HELL on that come-down.

We are defending a successful man to do what he pleases in his privacy as long as he is not putting anyone in harms way. I would defend you the same way brother.


So does caffeine, coffee, yerba mate, ect. and those stimulants are longer lasting and less detrimental to your health. ******* is not a PED or so are those thing i aforementioned, and those are more performance enhancing

Of course he should get a fine and suspension. He broke the VADA rules that HE VOLUNTARILY AGREED TO period. Doesn't matter if you think it is a PED or not. It is against VADA's rules which he agreed to. If he shot up heroin he should also fined and suspended when we know its not a performance enhancer. VADA also helps protect the health of the athlete.

It really is simple. If Benavidez wants to get high he shouldn't sign up for VADA. Cut and dry.

Dude, ******* is a stimulant and way more dangerous than coffee.

When the last time you saw somebody die from a coffee overdose?

When the last time you saw whole neighborhoods ruined due to coffee?

Stimulants can be used to increase focus during a fight.

Many people have used ******* over the years in other fields, specifically because it helps them focus and gives them energy

[Catrin]

Ban his ****** ass. A serious message needs to be sent. I don't care who the **** it is.

I guess your daddy Floyd beating on women is much better. he didn't get ban! chit he didn't even get suspended....! don't let morality make you ******.

[Catrin]

Camacho, Tyson, Leonard, Calzaghe, Leon Spinks, Aaron Pryor, Delahoya, Tommy Morrison, Pavlik, Fury all did Coke!

it breaks my heart to add Chavez sr. to the list but it is what it is...
