I love how these guys cherry pick and leave weed on the same list.

Press release from Hatton promotions and Lucas Brownes statement.

You know what Lucas statement does nothing to help him.

He had never heard of clembutarol? Im no bodybuilder but that word to me is more associated to bodybuilding than any breathing issues. Iv never known what its true intended purpose was but have seen and heard plenty of wannabe weightlifters mention it among their "cycles". For him to say hes never heard of it is utter bullshit.

He's a typical meathead, bodybuilding, bouncer and would have deffinitely heard of it with that crowd even if genuinely having never used it. He seems a nice bloke but would know all about many different peds and steroids. A more honest answer would be just to continue with I have no idea how it got there.

That for me makes me suspicious as much as the test result.

I don't know much about this sort of shit, but if some PED has been found in his tests, surely they should know.
1. How much of it - That would denote whether it was ingested in the last few days (while he was in Russia) or not. if there is a lot , wouldn't it denote it had been in his system a longer period of time and meant he's been taking it regular. and
2. how long it has been in his system - again, pre-arriving in Russia or not.

with the benefit of Hindsight , surely now, people like Browne should canvass to have regular Drug testing in the build up to a fight. So then, before he leaves for Russia, he can be able to say "I've had a test and I'm Clean." then if he fails a drug test in Russia , it would be clear that it is a set up , because
a. he wouldn't be able to smuggle the drugs into Russia, and
b. even if he did, taking something so close to fight night would have no benefit .
I'm sure somebody on here would be able to put me right on this. (I'm not saying you're all a bunch of druggies btw! )

Life bans is what is required plus criminal charges of assault with a deadly weapon.
