The famous American boxer at sunset of his career failed a doping test

The ex-champion of the world in half-burned 43-year-old American Antonio Tarver gave a positive result for prohibited substances in a doping test after a duel against the 29-year-old Nigerian Latif Kayoda.

Recall that the battle took place on June 2 in California (USA) and ended in a draw. This year, Tarver was already the third boxer who failed a doping test.

“This is very disturbing news,” Gary Show immediately said (the promoter of Nigerian Latif Kayode). “Recently, too many fighters come across positive tests for prohibited substances. Fights are canceled, and all this is simply killing boxing. Something has come, the time has come for action. Business in boxing is getting worse and worse every minute. I am ready every minute. To beg to anti -doping commissions throughout the country so that they take the most severe measures against violators. "

In a similar situation, two compatriots of Tarver - the WBA/IBF champion in the first welterweight, Lamont Peterson and the ex -champion of the world and the welterweight of Andre Berto, recalls Allboxing.ru .
