Comments Thread For: Jarrell Miller Return Not as Simple as Riding Out WBA 'Suspension'

[Coqqos]

I don't get it how everybody and every article puts peds under one roof. Whyte failed a test for a pre workout.luis ortiz from heart medication (according to him). Canelo fails for clen which is a stimulant aiding in weightloss by burning fat and retaining muscle. Heaven for a boxer. Miller fails for epo (produces more red blood cells, in turn more oxygen in muscle, higher work threshhold), hgh (a miracle drug which imprives everything) and something else which i dont recall. What this guy did is criminal, he's going in there, deliberately using banned substances which make you faster, stronger and last longer to try and take someone's head's off, and he gets a 6 month suspension which is less then when you get popped with weed? Stoooopiiiiiid

I think regardless of what ban he gets and serves his career at the top level is effectively done. With other drugs cheat there's been enough ambiguity in or distractions from their screwups to at least let them deflect or evade the worst of it,lie low for a while and then come back. Miller's screwups have been blatant and severe, not to mention coming right at the peak of his visibility and notoriety as a fighter. This drugs scandal is gonna be the first thing people think of about him - this IS him now. His name is mud now, which means no fans, which means no cash potential, which means that it's going to be easy as pie for other fighters to duck him, with the ready-made and understandable excuse that they don't trust him to not roid up again. He might be able to make a living fighting journeymen in Eastern Europe but not much more.

At least, that's how it'll go if there's any justice in the world. Knowing this clown sport though he'll find a way to get off scot free.

There shouldn't be a problem for him reapplying for a boxing license. It's not like he broke any of the governing bodies' rules or testing protocols. He failed a voluntary test which was not sanctioned by any of the State Athletic Commissions. therefore, he could of easily fought and opted out of the VADA-CBP without any disciplinary action taken by the governing bodies.

If what you just said is true that's an incredibly depressing indictment of how soft this sport is on drugs.

Then the governing bodies should follow the UFC and Dana White's lead by giving USADA precedence and jurisdiction over all testing protocol.

However, that is unlikely to happen because each State Athletic commission and governing body has its own set of rules, constitution, laws and testing protocols that they like to abide by themselves.

So the last thing they would want is for some national testing agency treading on them. Each individual state has its own authority when it comes to regulating the sport of boxing.

Miller should be banned for 2 years.

Why has Big babys head been put on Anthony Joshuas body?

Appears that only Joshua and Wilder are free from PED in the HW division.
