Comments Thread For: Dillian Whyte Tests Positive For Banned Substance

[EnglishOxide]

Under VADA protocols, the positive test result would have been reported to the World Boxing Council and Rivas camp. That appears to have not been the case in this instance with UKAD.

By virtue of his win, Whyte became the "mandatory" challenger for Deontay Wilder's WBC heavyweight crown. In all likelihood, the WBC would have withdrawn its sanction of Whyte-Rivas had it been aware of the positive test result prior to the fight.

It has been widely speculated that the WBC will elevate Wilder to "franchise champion" status, thus eliminating the mandatory requirement that he fight Whyte. This latest development might further complicate Whyte's path to a fight against Wilder.

This right here makes me believe that this is nothing but a power play by Al Haymon. He is very powerful and we know that Showtime/FOX own this website. They released this article at a time when BoxingScene would have the most traffic from an American audience.

Ruiz Jr is using it to try to excuse himself from a contractual agreement to rematch Joshua in the UK and Wilder is also quick to retweet this news. It's very convenient timing.

Whyte is innocent until proven guilty but Haymon is trying to get the WBC to strip Whyte of his mandatory position before he has been proven guilty of anything.

Nobody knows whether Rivas and the WBC were informed but this article reads like it's snitching on Matchroom in case they didn't inform them.

Fuck boxing sometimes man, it's way too corrupt.

[Straightener]

So is this official ?

If I had to guess which fighter was juiced it would have been Rivas ... guy was jacked

If whyte has popped positive he’s a idiot

Hehe, yea my bad too on typos.

Yea, Whyte has been under VADA one time. The CBP is run by the WBC, so you'd have to check with them how often he's tested for it to mean anything. What I see on this forum is ppl pointing to VADA and this CBP which is the WBC's program not VADA's. And as far as year round testing, its not accurate at all. Most of the guys on the WBC CBP do not get tested, so it's not like one can say, "hey he passed the VADA CBP" because that's all incorrect. The WBC uses VADA to do their testing, but the heart of the issue with the CBP is how often are guys getting test for it to mean anything positive. And ppl here are using the CBP as some proof of Whyte's cleanliness and UKAD is better or some such nonsense. My opinion on things...

*edit for your edit, I don't know if you have an agenda, I don't think I asked that. But I lol'd when you linked Hearn's shady twit post saying the boxers were cleared when they CLEARLY were not given that UKAD had an adverse finding for Whyte and Hearn did nothing about it. That's why I found it lol worthy and yea maybe a lil su****ious but not enough to think that you had an agenda.

We're on a similar page then - my initial point was not to suggest Whyte was clear because he got through the CBP but to indicate (once again, cos I mention this ish a lot) just how ineffective the CBP actually is... basically he was using something but it didn't get picked up by VADA (who administrate the CBP even though it is ostensibly the WBC that fund it)... shit... Ima end up going into a rant and about this Bullchit so I'll stop there..

Damn, you brits are conspiracy nuts. Al Haymon is so powerful now that he controls UKAD? Christ

[andocom]

Why would he lie about something so easy to check..?

Besides...

Do you have some sources saying he wasn't being tested by VADA or wasn't under the CPB or you just being argumentative?



https://bigfightweekend.com/news/why...ed-substances/

TBH that second link adds nothing, its only source is the BoxingScene article, in fact of every article I have seen so far only sources BoxingScene, and their source was "unnamed sources", not saying it isn't correct, but at this point the only primary reporting source is BoxingScene. No doubt more will come out shortly, one way or another.

[sofreshhh]

Whyte vs Big Baby in Russia, let them both juice to the gills.

I totally agree
😂😂😂😂

You are correct of course... I've been looking for further but basically all we have right now is Hearns tweet and the scene talking about 'multiple sources'.

Best just wait and see what further information comes out and try to get a more complete picture. Can't really see any reason why Hearn claiming both testing agencies were involved would be controversial though... UKAD do the testing for all BBBoC governed fights and VADA administer WBC title and elimination fights under the CBP.

I never said he controlled UKAD. But he controls most other things. That's why he stays out of the limelight so that he is unaccountable.

He buried the news about Wilders brother on roids. He buried the news about Charlos missed tests. He covers up for Spence on PEDs and Deyonce Wilder roiding to heal his hands. He buried the news about Floyd failing with USADA before the Pac fight. He endorses Pacquiao v Thurman with no testing.

He employs people to take down all footage of Deyonce Wilder being dropped in the amateurs and pros.

He scams the American public with sham fights like Spence v Mikey.

He threatens to black ball Luis Ortiz if he fights Anthony Joshua for career high money instead of Deyonce Wilder for less money.

He's probably threatened Ruiz Jr that he won't get a Wilder fight unless he does what he says.

He puts fighters on slave contracts with NDAs.

He gets Wilder out of a mandatory defence against Povetkin in Russia and promptly gets sued by World of Boxing for damages.

He bribes the WBC to avoid mandatory defences for his fighters (Adonis Stevenson and Deyonce Wilder).

You are ****ing ******ed if you cannot see his cancerous influence on the sport.

Ukad do the testing for all bbboc governed fights and vada administer wbc title and elimination fights under the cbp.

but somewhere in that damn contract they chose to go with ukad and not vada!

Karma will haunt you forever Hearn after all the lies you peddled
