I would point out that firstly early PED cases will and have changed policy over time, so treatment of a case a year or two or 5 years ago might not be the same as it is today. EDIT: Also it's been pointed out for you before that decisions over punitive measures are not in the hands of VADA or Goodman, but at the discretion of the relevant commission or sanction body. Secondly you seem to fail to understand that the advantages gained from a drug are not necessarily time limited... you talk about the 'picograms' recorded on sampling as if drugs are not metabolised or eliminated by the body. You are aware what a half-life is, right? Just because the measured amount is half as great it doesn't mean the amount ingested or dosed was half as great, since more time might have elapsed since the drug entered the body.
Further, If a drug is used to shed weight or add lean mass then that benefit remains even after the drug is eliminated from the system, just as if a stimulant is used to train longer and harder the benefits of that training do not just disappear when the drug is eliminated from the body. The benefits don't just vanish because it was 45 or 60 or even 80 days pre-fight... there's about a dozen other flags I could raise which call your argument into question, but I ain't gonna because, frankly I don't care.
All I intended was to point out that the scientific evidence does not clear Canelo as you asserted, though nor does it prove guilt of deliberate use.
