However, Garcia tested positive for the banned performance-enhancing drug Ostarine after taking a Voluntary Anti-Doping Association test, boxing journalist Dan Rafael reported Wednesday night.

He reportedly failed for the substance in two urine sample tests taken the day before the fight and also following the fight.

A sample also screened positive for 19-norandrosterone but is unconfirmed until further lab analysis, according to ESPN's Mike Coppinger.

Garcia will now have 10 days to request his B-sample be tested, which he must pay for himself.

The troubled boxer immediately took to social media to deny the claims Wednesday night, branding the reports 'fake news'.
'I came on here to address this bull-f***ing-s**t claim that I cheated,' Garcia said in a video posted to X. 'Everybody knows I don't cheat.

'What can I say? Why didn't they come out with this before, if they found it before? Why would they still let me into the ring? I came out with a victory and then they post this.

'These are people that are trying to attack me for whatever reason. But no weapon against me shall prosper. I've never taken a steroid in my life.'

Garcia continued to hit back at the reports in a series of social media rants, suggesting in one post that the news broke as an attack on him because he was pictured with Donald Trump.

'Hmm I'm seen with trump,' he wrote. 'And now I'm positive for steroids. This is a straight attack. Crazy.'

'I'm find out who paid who to create this lie,' he added in another. 'NOW IMA RELEASE EVERYONES S***. TIME TO EXPOSE THE REAL SNAKES.'

He hasn't allegedly failed a PED test. He has actually failed one.

[Controversial]

If true that he failed before the fight then why was it allowed to go ahead?

[Loynesy]

I'm not cognoscente of the entire facts, but it seems he failed a test the day before the fight based on his his then urine samples - it doesn't report when the lab reported to WADA about it.

It's certainly a messy situation.

[Frostieballs]

Results came after.

[Frostieballs]

All the time we give credibility to the stories offered by the likes of Fury/Alvarez/Benn, boxers will continue to push their luck.

Hearn was prepared to promote Benn-Eubank even though he knew he already failed a test.

This behaviour will continue until a genuine zero tolerance attitude is adopted.

Well what a shocker !

But not really ..

Lets see him talk his way out of this one ..

or Benn V Garcia for the drug cheats belt

72 hours to process

I don't doubt this is true, but what's the point of day before testing if it won't prevent an illegal athlete stepping into the ring

Exactly, it makes no sense.

[SeanBrennan]

This one is not surprising. Compound Khan popped for and then compound Fury popped for.

I never used to mind Garcia but he's real piece of sh1t, hollering about Jesus constantly all the while he's cheating, intentionally missing weight, constantly insinuating people are gay, saying he got raped as a 2 year old to pretend he's losing his mind, constantly threatening to expose whoever or whatever he's waffling on about that particular tweet, the cheesemerchant has yet to expose a single thing, the fact that he's one of the faces of boxing sickens me, won't be long before he's facing serious allegations out the ring Mark my word he's a danger, like his piece of sh1t promoter, another danger

[orbtastic]

He was really weird, full-stop, in the build-up to the fight.

Get him and Benn in the ring. Battle of the ‘PEDS’

I'm sure the WBC are designing a belt for it already

ya he's a legit weirrdo creep, it's beyond just having a bit of a personality to sell himself

[Delta Jay]

I’m pretty sure it’s just that next step into a social media/outrage style of promotion/content when he’s acting the goat on the internet and interviews.

PEDs is a different matter and what he’s got spotted with is a very serious one.

He’s easy to hate but he’s impossible to ignore

[SeanBrennan]

it is a sadly fitting end to the whole saga. I don't think many are surprised at all.
