Ryan Garcia flunked a drug check the day earlier than his big upset win over Devin Haney — testing constructive for a performance-enhancing substance — however the star boxer is asking BS!
25-year-old Garcia was given a check on April 19 by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Affiliation (VADA), the day earlier than the Haney match, and was popped for Ostarine, in keeping with boxing reporter Mike Coppinger.
The substance Ostarine aids in muscle progress and might enhance power.
Garcia rapidly 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 combat? Why would they let me step into the ring as a cheater and are available out with the victory after which publish this?” Ryan requested.
After all, Ryan, who got here in over 3 kilos over the 140 lb. threshold, received by majority determination, placing 25-year-old Haney down on the canvas thrice through the 12-round combat.
It was fingers down one of the best win of his profession … however barring a reversal in fact, it is doubtless the victory will likely be overturned, and might be declared a “no contest.”
SI briefly spoke with Devin’s dad and coach, Invoice Haney … who was livid over the information.
“You making an attempt to harm my child. We performed it truthful. We didn’t do it like that. F**ok boxing, that is some bulls**t. I got here from the streets. You terrified of Devin on a degree enjoying discipline? I really feel f**ked up over this. For those who 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 combat.
