Ryan Garcia Examined Optimistic For PED Earlier than Haney Combat, Boxer Denies Dishonest
Ryan Garcia flunked a drug take a look at the day earlier than his big upset win over Devin Haney — testing optimistic for a performance-enhancing substance — however the star boxer is looking BS!
25-year-old Garcia was given a take a look at on April 19 by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Affiliation (VADA), the day earlier than the Haney match, and was popped for Ostarine, in response to boxing reporter Mike Coppinger.
The substance Ostarine aids in muscle development and might enhance energy.
Garcia shortly went to social media to adamantly deny the claims.
“All people I got here on right here to deal with this bull f***ing s**t declare that I cheated,” Garcia mentioned, persevering with, “All people is aware of that I do not cheat.”
“Why did not they arrive out with this earlier than the battle? Why would they let me step into the ring as a cheater and are available out with the victory after which put up this?” Ryan requested.
After all, Ryan, who got here in over 3 kilos over the 140 lb. threshold, received by majority choice, placing 25-year-old Haney down on the canvas 3 times throughout the 12-round battle.
It was arms down one of the best win of his profession … however barring a reversal after all, it is seemingly the victory will probably be overturned, and may very well be declared a “no contest.”
SI briefly spoke with Devin’s dad and coach, Invoice Haney … who was livid over the information.
“You attempting to harm my child. We performed it honest. We didn’t do it like that. F**ok boxing, that is some bulls**t. I got here from the streets. You fearful of Devin on a stage taking part in subject? I really feel f**ked up over this. In the event you can brag about doing it, you shouldn’t be on medicine.”
Garcia does have the flexibility to ask VADA to check a second pattern (B pattern) that was collected the day earlier than the battle.
