    But i suppose the delay in the fight worked to his advantage.


    Canelo and Floyd have proved, you don't need to beat the system, you need to buy it.
    he got caught in February and didn't agree to testing until may lol so innocent!

      And we know that for reasons of greed and profit the Mexican cattle industry is rife with the practice of using steroids with livestock.

      Additionally, there have been instances of other Mexican athletes running into the same problem.


      WADA drops clenbuterol case against Mexican soccer players
      Mexican beef can be a legitimate excuse for clenbuterol in an athlete's blood sample, the World Anti-Doping Agency said



      Based on all that I think Canelo's excuse was reasonable. Do you agree?
      if canelo was purposely using peds he could have just avoided the test like the charlos did... and then even more he comes for a hair test knowing that not only clen but anything else used months before could have come out...

        hair test is not accurate in detecting clen or other peds. thats why they dont do them lol it was a misdirect. publicity stunt. red herring. something that they could pretend exonerated him when it had absolutely no bearing. the fact that they came up with this con to try and fool people makes me believe even more that they knew he was guilty. you dont try to trick people if you are innocent

          Your right he isn't ****** . He didn't ask for random testing for the rematch Sanchez did. Coincidentally he also isn't ******.

            floyd asked for it and stuffed his body full of IV to hide i mean re-hydrate. that should be proof that these guys dont take the drug testing seriously at all. it should also tell you that the guys asking for it can also be asking for it because they know the system and their opponents dont. its a tactical advantage. catch your opponent who hasnt had time to develop proper techniques to getting around the testing, or maybe they simply stop using which is an advantage to you. all while you know how to get exemptions, flush your system, etc...

              I seem to recall that it was Golovkin fans on social media who were clamoring for hair follicle tests.

              How clever of Canelo to plant all those people for use as a publicity stunt. He must have bought off hundreds of internet users to pretend to be irate GGG fans, what an evil genius.

                he didn't plant them but he used their ignorance to try and con people into believing an inaccurate test exonerated him. these are the type of people who probably think a caravan is coming to the states to kill everyone and we need an army at the border. its low hanging publicity fruit. if he was innocent i dont think they would waste their time trying to trick people

                  Clen makes your gas tank bigger, funny, Canelo was gassed in the 1st fight, gets caught with clen in his system which would help with that issue, 2nd fight was fought at closer quarters and Canelo didn't appear to gas anywhere near as much as the 1st fight, his trainers are butchers, it's a known problem in Mexico, they know the rule that you are responsible for what goes in your mouth and the only reason he was caught was that the testing started earlier than intended, funny how everything that happened would have helped Canelo except for being caught

                      so you are going to ignore all the research that shows its not accurate? if it was so accurate why dont they use it for testing? its certainly easier than blood and urine. why would you believe just one guy instead of mountains of evidence to the contrary? this one guy happens to be one of the most controversial figures in boxing and has worked with fighters and promoters but yeah hes just giving his opinion!
