According to USADA Fuchs testes positive for two banned substances in February. After an investigation it was confirmed by USA Boxing and Fuchs that the steroids were injecting during sex with her boyfriend, who was using them. So. Many. Questions! I’m not a doctor, but like how does that work? Would the injection even be strong enough to even impact her performance? Is this a get around that athlete have been using for years? I mean, I’ve heard of the water bottle trick, but never this. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/general/article/Ginny-Fuchs-Olympics-boxer-positive-drug-test-sex-15333804.php No doubt contamination through bodily fluids is possible, it's not even the first case in the past year alone If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

NaBUru38 205 Posted August 19, 2020 #12 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Cecilia Brækhus lost her undefeated record on the hands of Jessica McCaskill. The Americans took the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO and IBO welterweight titles. David Benavídez defeated Roamer Alexis Angulo, but was overweight and lost the WBC super middleweight belt.

ChandlerMne 627 Posted August 22, 2020 #14 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Povetkin did it. He was on the verge of losing, was in knockdown 2 times but what a punch (uppercut). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Federer91 2,153 Posted December 12, 2020 #17 Share Posted December 12, 2020 After 3 years of waiting these two are finally meeting. There was the usual press-conference/weigh in shenanigans the previous days. Joshua looked more pissed than usual, maybe because he wants this match to finally be over, since Kubrat has been taunting him ever since the planned 2017 fight. Let's see, if he can make it further than the Klitschko fight and not make a fool of himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see, if he can make it further than the Klitschko fight and not make a fool of himself. I hope so for him, but I highly doubt he has the kind of level the likes of Joshua have I guess the few main competitors in heavyweight aren't available at the moment, so sometimes there has to be someone like Pulev to fill the wait up to the next huge fight If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

It's not like one of those arranged fights that the champs promoter makes to build his client. But still, if he manages to finish the match, i will take it as a success, even though they will never give him the win on points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
