You don't have to guess about hypocrisy... we already have examples!
Those who called Lemieux a cheater and then next week didn't call Jacobs a cheater for doing exactly the same.Comment

Salido case different as he missed the official weigh-in, weighing in 2 and a 1/4 pounds over the featherweight limit. That was a violation of the rules and he got stripped of his belt as a result.
Jacobs has a contractual stipulation added by the DLH side that requires a second weigh-in and that there be a price paid in the event that either fighter exceeds 170. Jacobs exceeded 170, and paid the price stipulated in the contract. Only cheating would be if Jacobs refused to honor the contract and not pay the agreed price for exceeding 170.
Again, the only break in contract is DLH publicising the results of the second (unofficial) weigh-in.Comment

Im far from a GGG fan. But how is it impossible for him to be out of prime 2 years later at his age? Whar age is it ok for you? What is the age to be out of prime for you?
I mean I know you are a hardcore mexican fighter groupie but please explain to me why isn't it possible?Comment

Actually, Canelo has done exactly the same thing before.
Anaheim, California - Saul "Canelo" Alvarez, of Mexico, and Matthew Hatton, of England, weighed-in for Saturday's showdown at the Honda Center in Anaheim. The vacant WBC junior middleweight title will be on the line. Alvarez, who failed to make the weight limit, was given two hours to lose the excess weight. Alvarez came in at 151.8-pounds. and Hatton came in at 149.6. The co-feature, with super featherweights in action, also made weight. Adrien Broner was 129.8-pounds and Daniel Ponce De Leon 128.4-pounds.Comment

here is logic, you don't know when he took the clen and it's known that hair testing for clen isn't reliable. Everything you see there says "can remain in system" , "may remain in hair" , nothing concrete. That's why it's not the primary form of testing used. Because it's not reliable. Again with logic, don't you find it odd that he tested positive the very first time they ever tested him in Mexico and that was the furthest out from a fight that they had ever tested him? Common sense should tell you something.Just on the hair test:
- Canelo tested positive Feb 17 (and Feb 20) in urine tests
- hair sample taken Mar 29, tested negative
- clen can be detected in urine for weeks, but detected in hair samples for months
So, just applying logic, why didn't the hair test show the clen that was known to be in the system Feb 17 ? Isn't the only proof here that the hair test doesn't work as it fails to pick up the clen that was known to be in the system on Feb 17 ?
And if the argument is that the amounts were so tiny, can we just remind ourselves that there were 105 positive clen tests in the youth soccer tournament, and Canelo's level on Feb 27 was among the top 5 out of those 105 positive tests (ie he came close to top of class).Comment
