When you got problems, you have really got problems!
[/German heavyweight Michael Wallisch, 19-1, has tested positive for steroids following his fight against Christian Hammer December 15 in Hamburg, writes BILD.
The fight ended with a fifth round knockout for Hammer but the result was protested after an incident in the fourth when heads clashed accidentally and it appeared that the referee had called a time out but apparently he had counted Wallisch out - only to have the fight resume after a long timeout.
Wallisch and his team have filed a protest over this and wanted the fight to be declared a no contest but now he most likely face a suspension from the German Federation, the BDB.
Wallisch, an eternal prospect with a career derailed by injuries,contractual disputes and problems with the law, was in trouble against Hammer time already in the third and it got worse in the fourth and fifth.
