Comments Thread For: Wilder Lashes Out at Whyte: I Can't Wait To Hear The Excuse

But we are entitled to go into the ring, confident that the other guy has not done anything to give himself an advantage

BUT we are also entitled to use every foul trick in the book to keep the KO streak, the green belt hostage and milk the dosser fanbase

What are these tricks that you're referring to?

The problem is if he tested positive for Dianabol while in training it is still considered a failed test and punishable offence.

Right. I am referring to why the UKAd didn't decide to suspend him immediately.

This case is strange. So much secrecy that even the date for the positive test was a month off. That is the problem with UKAD and the BBB of C. It is one thing to have confidentiality but the public especially the boxing world should be kept abreast of the basics of the case!

Moronic? Over here in the " good old U.S.A" marijuana is legal in many states. As for Dianabol (steroids) not so much. Apples and oranges mate or chap or whatever fu.king term you use!

Legal in states but not legal for athletes particularly in combat sports. If you are an athlete and are caught with Marijuana in your system you are banned so not its apple and oranges

Here's a logical question....Why hasn't the results of the "B" Sample come to light yet? It does not take this long. People speak of the adjudication process being the reason why He was allowed to fight...If that's the case, then that implies his B sample was tested and came back clean...however, that is NOT the case because apparently his B test is still not back yet.

As Per the UKAD, "Where the Notice of Charge is based on an Adverse Analytical Finding, the athlete has the right to request analysis of the B-Sample.

If the B-Sample does not confirm the result of the A-Sample then the entire test is considered as negative and the Notice of Charge withdrawn. No further action will be taken against the athlete.

If the B-Sample analysis confirms the Adverse Analytical Finding in respect of the A-Sample, then the athlete can either accept the finding and consequences specified in the Notice of Charge or request that the matter proceed to a hearing."

At the end of the day, the burden of proof rests on Whyte...He was allowed to fight without any consideration of duty of care for his opponent... Hearn clearly didnt care about Rivas..and neither did the UKAD. and THATS THE ISSUE HERE

Correct. The blatant disregard for Rivas' health and the glove thing on top of that. They turn the home town edge into life and death. A bad call should be enough, but not for these guys. Its like homie refs and judges are not enough. Now we have the homie commissions.

Do you have a crush on Dillian Whyte? Dianabol is a steroid. Marijuana contains a psychoactive (mind-altering) chemical. Yes they are both "banned substances" but they are used for completely different purposes. The Dillian Whyte supporters are like religious zealots. The only way to really "see" life is to open one's mind! The Dillian Whyte saga will play itself out. If he was using Diananbol then he should be punished for it. End of story!

Obviously very dirty business from team Whyte but every fighter who talks too much about peds seems to get popped and it would be hilarious if it was wilder next

If a man that skinny takes steroids then honestly it's just a waste of steroids.

Do you have a crush on Wilders brother? If there both banned substances then its illegal.

Here you have a person saying it's ok to take a banned substance because it's not as effective as another banned substance.

Saying it's legal in many states without realizing that its still banned for athletes shows just how knowledgeable you are on the subject.

Another fool with little substance who likes to throw insults around. Yawn

The whole situation reeks of incompetence if not outright corruption. The claims that UKAD and the BBB of C make about these investigations possibly taking months is B.S. When an employee who is drug tested comes up positive for his "A" and "B" samples he either has a very good plausible explanation or he is done! Test the "B" sample, announce the results and then take appropriate action. The boxing world is waiting!

Uk boxing is nothing but an organized crime syndicate!

If it wasn't for the leak we would still be in the dark!

Where's Eliot Ness!
