Alvarez banned for six months over failed drug test

Boxer Canelo Alvarez Banned From Fighting After Failing Steroids Test

Boxer Canelo Alvarez Banned From Fighting After Failing Steroids Test

Although most professional sports, global anti-doping agencies and United States boxing commissions treat meat contamination differently from other positive tests, Nevada does not.

Gary "Spike" O'Sullivan looked like he would get his chance to fight Gennady Golovkin on May 5, but after rejecting the offer to fight for the unified middleweight championship, O'Sullivan explains why.

"The only input from the Triple-G side, because we feel Triple G is the most damaged person in the situation scrambling to save the May 5 date, it would have been nice to see Canelo getting a fine", said Golovkin's promoter, Tom Loeffler, who attended the hearing.

Khan, who makes his comeback against Canadian Phil Lo Greco on Saturday, a full two years after he suffered that brutal defeat, joined the outrage as Alvarez was handed a mere six-month suspension for twice testing positive for the prohibited stamina enhancer clenbuterol.

GGG is a huge favorite against Martiroysan, who hasn't fought in a couple of years.

Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY) PT Lowered to $61.00
Walleye Trading Ltd Liability Corp holds 0.04% of its portfolio in Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE: BMY ) for 131,776 shares. A number of other institutional investors and hedge funds also recently made changes to their positions in the business.

Nevada boxing regulators gave Canelo Alvarez a reduced penalty for doping violations Wednesday, potentially allowing him to return to the ring in September against Gennady Golovkin. Khan said: 'I'm pleased he's been a bit respectful this time but I will beat him'.

But Alvarez had the second half of a potential one-year ban suspended after co-operating with the NSAC and could now face Golovkin in a return of their controversial draw last year on September 15.

In a statement, Alvarez's promoters, Golden Boy Promotions said they accepted the sanction - and indicated they aimed to reschedule the Golovkin rematch for September. The IBF wants GGG to fight mandatory IBF challenger Sergiy Derevyanchenko, who has been seeking to step in.

"As we have maintained all along, the trace amounts of clenbuterol found in Canelo's system in February came from meat contamination, and we provided the Nevada State Athletic Commission with a great deal of evidence to support those facts". "I do believe in my heart I'm going to beat (Golovkin) because he's never fought someone with my style". "Golovkin vs. Martirosyan will definitely be the fiesta de resistance of Cinco De Mayo".
