WBC Statement on Morales


"The only authorities on this title fight between the WBC super light champion Danny Garcia and his challenger Erik Morales are the New York State Athletic Commission and the WBC, and the only antidoping rule valid officially for the WBC will be the tests taken either in the dressing room before the fight or after the fight."

Wow, hypocrisy at its finest. So if Morales test clean before and after the fight, they will disregard the random drug test that he failed. Way to go

If they disregard the testing why would anyone participate in the testing? Why announce a failed test if it's irrelevant?
I'm beginning to think a national organization is needed to get boxing on track.

No but I have a feeling its going to be furosemide or another diuretic.

Because I didn't yet read boxing news today as I had other things to do so I asked if anybody did read about it in order to save time?

[IamInuit]

Nobody knows for sure yet and the B sample wont even be ready until after the fight. The reason people are suggesting that it might be Clenbuterol is because Morales is talking about tainted meat. The same reason given by a bunch of soccer players from the Mexican National tournament and they were acquitted. Apparently over a hundred players in an under 17 tourney in Mexico had the same thing happen so he could get away with it if it turns out to be that diuretic.

Save time?

Your on here reading, that takes time!

Anyway, this shows how lazy you are... It says clenbuterol in the link in the very first post of this thread and dont try and say its an update and you didnt see it originally because it said that when I first posted in this thread
