OUTRAGE has been directed at Erkan Teper after reports that the former European heavyweight champion failed a drug test emerged.
Teper knocked out Britain’s David Price in two rounds to win the European crown, a belt which he vacated citing an injury.
Price’s promoters, the Sauerland Brothers took to social media to say, “SHOCKING! Fighter was doped in big fight with a ‘big’ commission. It has taken them FIVE months to report. Wait til you hear it! Disgrace.”
It is an unpleasant reminder for Price, who hasn’t boxed since losing to Teper in July. David’s other conqueror, Tony Thompson was subsequently handed a ban for an anti-doping violation.
Not sure if it would have made much of a difference to the outcome

It might be something for Price to cling to confidence wise that his defeats have come against drug cheats.

Cmon everyone is on the juice...
Re: Erkan Teper failed drugs test after the David Price fight
I wonder what the chemical reason is behind these guys getting caught post fight from piss samples but not the samples given an hour earlier? It just happened to Wach also. They might want to change chemists and the others can learn from this and make sure not to use the same juice and leave the same footprint.
Re: Erkan Teper failed drugs test after the David Price fight
I genuinely believe we are more surprised that any thlete actually gets caught rather than they are taking something. The tests are relatively easy to pass and are only really gestures to look good.
Hair testing is much more thorough and can detect any substance you've taken for as long as a hair has been growing on your body.
Why don't they use this as a test? Because its too thorough,
Re: Erkan Teper failed drugs test after the David Price fight
They need to get stricter on these bans. Disappointed in Teper as he was just starting to get some rumblings going.
Poor Price.

They should ban these boxers for ever at best and at worst charge them for attempted murder. Watch the boxers that are on something go to other sports.
Re: Erkan Teper failed drugs test after the David Price fight
That funker is a massive puncher but his body doesn't scream juicer. Thompson as well. Bit unlucky for Price to lose to two drugs cheats. Maybe they should let him juice and have it again
Re: Erkan Teper failed drugs test after the David Price fight
if Thompson was caught cheating why hasn't the result been reversed?

He's going to the wrong dealer

I heard Thompson had been filing appeals which is the reason it hasn't been changed yet.
The Lebedev/ Jones fight still hasn't been changed. Even Whyte's fight where he received the 2 year ban hasn't been changed.
I think a minimum of 2 years should be the norm. Repeat offenders should be out for life.

Wasn't Mosley caught against de la Hoya and admitted it and that result wasn't changed either
Yet I'm sure some fights are reversed although I can't think of any examples
