Has this not happened over there before? This stinks...

[jamesmcdonnell]

Jesus - someone said this might happen.

If this is a fit up, then he's screwed.

Who carries out the testing under these circumstances in Russia?

[stevedoc]

How disappointing, what is it with fighters now surely they must know there's a good chance of getting caught

[BitPlayer]

Hopefully the few high profile cases recently means they're getting they're act together. It's sad how common this is in boxing, and sport in general.

Should probably wait for something more official though.

Its true what you say mate, but if you can make a few million beforehand do they care?

[Boxerbeetle]

Gutted by this, really hope it's not true as Browne always seemed like one of the good guys.

But if it is true, he should be banned for life, as should all drug cheats.

[wesshaw1985]

I'm sceptical, if it has been slipped to him we will never know 100%.
Shame...

And big daft Tyson refused to even drink water in Germany....

what does this steroid actually do ? Does it make you faster / hit harder. Intrigued what it actually do;es and what its really used for ?

I have a Clenbuterol inhaler for my asthma, but there are details below with regards to it being a PED

Wasn't clenbuterol what one of the 80s sprinters got.done for? Johnson or Linford?

No expert mate but I think it strips fat and opens up your airwaves therefore allowing you to workout for longer. Like I say though mate I'm no expert and someone might say I spouting bollocks but that is what I've been led to believe

[tijuana1]

Thanks basically opens your air waves / valves up to breath better, more oxygen to feed the muscles. So it would help you massively in a fight. Thanks again.

i'd like to think browne was slipped this without knowing about it, but if not, what a div he really is

if he was slipped it he should of taken a leaf out the fury's book, they are too clued up for all them sly capers

It was Stanozolol in Ben Johnson's case, and Linford was cleared of taking pseudoephedrine after initially failing a test during the 1988 olympics

[Omerta]

Bodybuilders use it as a fatburner,, brown was in the shape of his life for this fight he was borderline ripped

People still living in a fantasy world where they think sports stars get to the top of their sport by out working the next guy.

Ah ok thanks mate, no idea who it was I (don't) remember getting busted for it then

[whiskey]

Didn't he forecast something fishy might occur out there?

Morales and the entire Mexican football team

...well some of them http://edition.cnn.com/2011/SPORT/06/10/mexico.doping/

Great, now we get to see Chagaev/Oquendo 2! I can see Chagaev becoming a Eurasian John Ruiz, constantly regaining the WBA title no matter how many times he loses it.

[veriton]

so that's why he was up on his toes like ali for the first three rounds

[broomy7s]

I take Clen as a fat burner. Helps me to cut.
