He's the one journalist making noise about a genuine risk to our sport. I salute Gabriel.

Testing was carried out by the CSAC apparently. Haven't seen anything saying what he tested positive for.

I hope its weed or something recreational & not a PED

Tarver was yesterday giving an uncompromising opinion on the issue of drug testing, when discussing it with Fat Dan on Twitter.

This sport really does make me sick far too often. At its absolute purest it's a noble, beautiful thing. Unfortunately in reality, it's a vile, scummy business filled with cheats, leeches, crooks, parasites & con-men.

 

[wrimc]

So are these fighters testing positive and its all being hushed up anyway?

 

[sg-85]

FFS.

 

[Elephant Man]

Hes tested positive for drostanolone (An anabolic steroid)

 

[Vano-irons]

The dominoes just keep falling

[DonBoxer]

Testing was carried out by the CSAC apparently. Haven't seen anything saying what he tested positive for.

masteron(drostanolone.) it's a cutting drug, used to reduce body fat. rather than strength or size gains.

of course, tarver could've just been using it at an end of a cycle of the harder stuff to reduce side effects of the main steroids too. hard to say really.

 

[Scotty]

If guilty,I hope Showtime give him the boot

 

[dftaylor]

I have always been a proponent of a clean sport and an advocate for the most rigorous drug testing in boxing...

The positive test results came as a complete surprise to me today. I will be examining every potential cause and ultimately, I am confident that my fans will see that I was not at anytime attempting to gain an unfair or illegal advantage in my performance.

It's amazing how Peterson, Berto AND Tarver have all been shocked to discover they were cheating. How could they have known?

Free the Dopey Three!
