The stuff Big Baby was popped for is SERIOUS stuff. As in, cancer causing injected stuff. You'd have to be an idiot to take the stuff for that alone, but also, in a big stakes fight like this?
So WHAT IF...his results got mixed up with someone else's pop...?
You can read for yourself the story of Dan Ige, an MMA fighter:

But basically, someone stopped by and took his blood, but wasn't supposed to be taking it. No clue who it was, but imagine: how often does this happen to fighters?
I know what you're thinking. "He's popped before!!" - he popped off of Jack3d, a flavored drink mix likely found in Manny's special shakes (only has an 8 hour half life, so it would easy to time it if you're paying attention), same as other fighters like Dillian Whyte.
Nowhere near the same as an injected DANGEROUS straight up steroid like this new one.
A B-sample would likely settle it, due to the extreme improbability of it happening twice, two separate dates.
The question is - WWYD if Miller's B-sample came back perfectly clean (which means the A-sample was likely a false or tainted positive)?
