    Because he cheated and it's bad for the sport to not punish someone when they've cheated regardless of how other parties involved feel.

    IT was a small amount and was a result of an over the counter thing called Ripped Fuel. And I'm pretty sure Roy didn't know about it. And regardless of that he didn't need it to beat Richard Hall.

    Richard Hall tested positive as well. But he wouldn't have been subjected to punishment because at the time it was the IBF that was testing Jones because he was the champion, and the WBA was where Richard Hall was ranked so he wasn't subjected to any punishment whatsoever since the IBF was the one making the call as Jones was their champion and the winner whereas Hall wasn't rated by their organization.

    So case in point is that if Roy had tested positive on both the A sample and the B sample he would have gotten punished and Hall wouldn't, so both sides wouldn't have been punished equally anyway it would have ALL fallen on Jones. Which wouldn't have been fair either.

    And why Roy wasn't stripped of his titles?

    Here's why, because you give two tests an A sample and B sample. If the A sample is positive the B sample is sent to the commission to be tested, if it comes back positive your title is vacated. Roy's came back negative.

    And he was required to give his samples in his next two fights, both of which came back negative as well. So it was as simple as Roy being informed Ripped Fuel had an illegal substance in it and Roy didn't use it anymore. Simple as that.


    So can we quit with all the "he cheated he was steroid using" stuff?
