So are all Mexican fighters not allowed to eat beef anymore?

Eat fish.

Eat chicken.

Eat game meat.

Eat or drink dairy protein.

Unless they physically need beef to continue functioning as a human being, there's no excuse. Pop a few iron tablets and you're good to go.

I think it's fair. All Mexican boxers now know the strong possibility of failing tests if they eat Mexican beef. Beef is certainly not the only source of high quality animal protein. Even a poor boxer can eat fish, chicken or lamb instead of Mexican beef and get all the nutritional benefits of beef.

Yes because of Clenbutreol's half life is very short. The first failed test was February 17th and the second was on February 20th. The second test was lower because it was leaving his system at that point. Nothing out of the norm there.

Nothing out of the norm, except they effed up with his cycle! 🐮

Wasn’t Nacho or some Mexican trainer saying he won’t let his fighters eat beef in camp just because it is such an issue down there?

They can eat whatever they want but should stick to making tacos, not fighting.

In the case of Canelo the problem is he had two failed tests and the first one had 10 times the amount of the second one.

both consistent with food contamination, the second one was 3 days later and much lower so is a result of the same thing canelo consumed...

It's a tough thing because it is a big issue down there and something I was aware of well before last month. People who just want to bash Canelo are going to try to distract from the subject here but if we want to be truthful, it would be best for Mexican athletes to either eat imported meat, or avoid it altogether during periods open to testing.

Also, clen is sometimes used when raising pork as well.

most boxers or athletes cant do that, now they rarely get tested while training in mexico thats why doesnt happen as often.. oh and clen is also on the pultry, basically any farm animal could have it...

chicken and lamb are also affected by clen, fish could be the only safe option...

canelo wasnt even in camp, lol.. if they have to do random vada they wont be allowed tp eat meat all year, not even poultry or anything that was raised in a farm.. basically any mexican athlete doing random vada most become vegan... is a good thing for them that vada rarely does tests in mexico or we will get more cases every year..

Just treat it like weed. Weed is good for you but if you do it you might lose your job. Will you risk an income to get high? probably not. Mexican clen beef probably tastes magnificent but consuming it raises the chances of losing a payday. So just don't do it. Benavidez was offered beef in a restaurant in Mexico and turned it down. Exercise precaution and use common sense. Just don't eat the sht. Period. Simple. It's not unfair. If Benavidez can turn it down Canelo can too. No excuses.
