Breaking news:

Ryan Garcia has found to be taking a banned substance as per report by ESPN. I don't what the complication this may bring to his win against Haney but definitely this is a bad news for the boxing community.

Ryan Garcia failed his doping test the day before and the day of his upset win over Devin Haney, per a Voluntary Anti-Doping Association letter obtained by ESPN.

Yeah, not sure if this is true though, but I want to hear it from VADA itself on what their take on the sample from Ryan. Or at least make it official and see what substance it is or if it really help Ryan win because I doubt it.

I also read that even Regis accuse Haney of using illegal drugs as well but he wasn't caught because he cycles.

But I don't think that Ryan's performance here will diminishes because of this accusations. He did knock him out 3x and won and dominated the fight.

what are they trying to achieve?  weren't they tested before the fight and there were no issues like this PEDs bnut now that he won, he is being accused of it.

the mafia in boxing has presented itself. we really are living in crazy times when things like this is happening where morals are already flying out the windows. they were trolled big time by Ryan and they couldn't just shake hands and just move on to another fight. or is it just Haney feels like its his last and can't face the crowd because he causes the mafia lost a large sum.

Lol, not sure about the Mafia scenario though, but it seems that everyone is transpiring against Ryan Garcia and they want to taint his win against Haney. Maybe they can't take the Ryan beat a prime boxer and dominate him and now  they are discrediting his big wins with this accusations.

But let's see he has deny it already and have 10 days to submit to another test whether urine or blood to see if there are drugs in his system that will really colloborate his first failed drug test.

Got your point there mate but if the mafia was involved on this fight then they should bet for Ryan Garcia to win because that's where the big money because he was the huge underdog while betting for Haney was not attractive because of low odds.

Yeah, they should have been tested before the fight to avoid complications but Team Haney was so confident that they would beat the crazy Ryan Garcia but it was the opposite that happened.

there is politics involve and Ryan was exposing some shits happening around like Diddy sex extortion. i didn't follow more of it but Ryan made lots of enemies in hollywood. and afaik he also have a beef with Oscar, he was threatened the fight was supposedly cancelled because of his trolling and his mental breakdowns on twitter. its why there were people claiming he shouldn't be allowed to fight but i'm guessing Haney wants to embarrass the kid. Unfortunately, it backfires its why this time Ryan's victory might just be discredit if they are successful with this.

Yes, I agree because Ryan did not follow the script that he should lose and Haney should dominate and humiliate him all so-called boxing experts including Bradley even stated that he would resign from their commentary job if Ryan won the match.
Every bet is on Haney to win and when Haney lose and is the one humiliated Ryan becomes the hated one when they have the opportunity to ruin him by this news they all joined the bandwagon

Naoya Inoue vs Luis Nery:

We have a fight as both fighters made the scales in today's weigh-in. Inoue weighs 121.75 pounds while Nery weighs 121 lbs, the former is a little bit heavier but within the limit.

This fight is going to happen tomorrow in the next few hours. See below for the full video of the weigh-in.

By the way, this fight can be watch for free via Top Rank's youtube channel and FB account, for Philippines only.

Below is the link for the live stream of this fight. It was being said that they would stream for free via youtube in the Philippines. So far it is working on my end.

when Inoue fell, i think everyone who put their money on him must have been standing up and about to say goodbye to their money. 
but then he won by KO again. it isn't surprising but Inoue knocked down was more surprising, it kept watching over and over and it sure can be a big hole in his defense. it may just be his fall next if he fights someone on their heavier division.

this is the first time i saw Inoue showboating by the way. i guess that knock down crawled under his skin.

It was a flash knockdown as he didn't saw that hook coming but i think he was not that hurt as he didn't even clinched to Nery and i admired Inoue's presence of mind and composure and the adjustment he made was awesome that Nery couldn't hit him anymore with his counter left hook.

I think he was showboating so that if Nery would take the bait he will be open for the counter straight of Inoue and yeah he seldom do that.

There are talks that Inoue's next fight will be in September against Sam Goodman so this means that Casimero is already out of the picture of getting/winning the Inoue sweepstakes.

giving a chance to casimero might be  good thing for inoue but none seem to back this fight to happen. if inoue climbs the weight again, then he will not have any chance.

its crazy to see inoue will still be defending his belt after Nery, it would make sense to go all the way up already. but i'm guessing he could not request the fight to be in Japan if he climbs up to fight a champ from the upper weight class?

Yes, and Inoue looks hurt though, that's why he didn't stand up and just barely beat the 8 count. He could have been thinking that it's the wrong strategy lol, but he shows composure, get up from the canvass and then show what a Monster he is.

Casimero is out because he is not that impressive and not even in the top 5 as far as any governing bodies goes at 122 lbs if I'm not mistaken.

Sam Goodman but be the next one as he is a number 1 rated from 2 governing bodies so he could really be the next test for Inoue.
