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?

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.
