[john l]

I thought the Brits were better with they're testing and crap like this, but its clear after BJS and now Whyte their not any better then the states.

Great Interview! Not only informative but he raises a lot of questions that needs to be asked

[Teddy Brenner]

Again, a WBC official would have been present when Whyte was gloved up.

Anber is saying that the WBC rep was not involved and that they didn't even see him.

If BJS had been American he wouldn't have had any problem with his test result, because he would have had a US license already and wouldn't have needed to apply for one with MSAC.

He didn't break any WADA or USADA rule. They both allow oxylofrine outside competition, just like UKAD and the BBBoC.

But would he have seen the WBC rep if he wasn't there himself when Whyte was gloved up?

It sounds like Anber was a little slack. If he wanted to watch Whyte being gloved up he should have arranged with Hearn to be there while it happened.

So far as I know, the rule is that a member of the opponent's team can be present when a fighter is gloved up, put I don't know of any rule that says you can't glove up unless they are there.

And I remember Abel Sanchez being warned that he would be removed from Canelo's dressing room if he didn't keep quiet, when he started protesting at the way Canelo's hands were wrapped.

Let's see if the WBC issues a statement regarding the glove issue.

Yes, there are a lot of aspects to this that we should all take the "let's wait and see" option with.

Not sure about WADA but I doubt they allow it and VADA deff don't allow it. That's why he was stripped.

He wasn't stripped for any PED offence because he hadn't committed any by WADA rules. He relinquished his title as soon as MSAC denied him a licence. MSAC also follow WADA rules, btw, but they denied him a licence for failing to fulfil the terms of his contract.

They denied him a license because he popped for a PED that for some reason is allowed out of comp in UK. The reason he was not allowed to fight was because of the PED which ever way you want to twist it.
