I thought the wait was due to the results from the second test. Am I missing something, did they talk about the results of the second test (sample b) yet?
Where are Billy Joe's Sample B Test Results?

Isn't there always a B Sample?
The only test result mentioned is the August test that came back in late September.
Originally posted by ESPNSaunders failed a Voluntary Anti-Doping Association test for the banned substance oxilofrine after submitting a urine sample in England in late August. The test then returned positive on Sept. 28, but it wasn't until the Massachusetts commission denied Saunders' license that the fight was officially off.Source: http://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/i...-andrade-fightOriginally posted by Frank WarrenThe tests they are referring to took place in August, but since then Bill has had subsequent tests which have all come back negative.
In the Frank Warren quote he says tests, plural. That means there are more than one sample from August.
Whether it's called a B Sample or another test at another date, are there any results out there being discussed?Comment

The B sample is exactly the same sample as sample A, extracted from Saunders at the same time. If the B sample came back differently than the A sample the only explanation would be negligence or dishonesty. If Saunders wanted the B sample tested he would have to pay for the testing. If he paid for it and it came back negative the fight would not have been cancelled, obviously this did not happen.
A sample taken even a few hours later might come back negative but so what? Oxilofrine is only detectable for a few hours.Comment
