Lawal Tests Positive for Steroids

Posted By

One of the top competitors in Strikeforce’s light heavyweight division, Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal, has tested positive for steroids.

Lawal tested positive for Drostanalone that is a banned steroid, according to the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

From Mmaboom.com:

A few weeks ago Strikeforce’s Cris Cyborg failed her own steroid test following a 16-second-victory over top contender Hiroko Yamanaka. Cyborg received a one year suspension for her test results, while it’s still unclear what Lawal’s punishment will be.

Both fighters were widely regarded as some of the best talent remaining on the Strikeforce roster, and it makes you wonder how much longer the Zuffa-purchased league can continue forward with these sorts of revelations.

Lawal’s manager Mike Kogan believes the whole thing was a mistake.

King Mo will not appeal positive steroid test

Posted By

Former Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Muhammed Lawal is not expected to file an appeal with the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC).

Lawal tested positive for the anabolic steroid Drostanolone following a Jan. 7, 2012, win over Lorenz Larkin.

From Mmamania.com:

Drostanolone, also found in previous drug test results from Josh Barnett and Hermes Franca, is popular among athletes and competitive bodybuilders because its “anti-estrogenic properties make it a very effective cutting agent.”

But “King Mo” insists he “had no intent of taking any illegal substance.”

That’s according to his manager Mike Kogan, who told the MMA Hour (via MMA Fighting) that Lawal ingested “a supplement called S-Mass Lean Gainer by Rock Solid, which Lawal said he bought at a Max Muscle store in California and used only sporadically for ‘rehab stuff.’”

“When I went to Max Muscle, I figured you can’t buy steroids at a Max Muscle. It’s a chain store,” he said. “That’s like going to a grocery store and buying something illegal there. I guess that’s the mistake I made. When I looked at the bottle, it just had a bunch of numbers on it. It had the ingredients. I didn’t see anything that looked illegal on the bottle, to be honest with you,” Lawal said.

Hardy back in jail

Posted By

The former WWE and TNA wrestling star, Matt Hardy, is back in jail. Hardy was arrested early Saturday morning after he was reportedly booted from a rehabilitation center after failing a Breathalyzer test.

The 37-year-old was booked into the jail at 1:40 a.m. on Saturday. Jeff Hardy, his brother, is back competing in TNA Wrestling after receiving 10 days in jail, 30 days probation, and a fine of $100,000 in a September plea bargain that stemmed from his 2009 arrest on drug charges.

From Thepilot.com:

Multiple wrestling websites are reporting that Hardy was expelled from the rehab program on Nov. 18 after he failed a Breatha-lyzer test. Members of the rehabilitation center staff administered the test after they became suspicious of Hardy’s behavior, according to TMZ.com.

Hardy said he wasn’t drinking and had failed the test because he’d just used mouthwash, TMZ reported.

“I’m reading a lot of ridiculous things on the ‘dirtsheets’ tonight,” Hardy’s girlfriend, Reby Sky, said on Formspring. “So to clear things up: I could have bailed him out and did not. He’s still in jail. Have fun with that.”

Hardy was arrested after the failed test and sent to jail.

Marquez defends training with ex-steroid dealer

Posted By

The World lightweight champion, Juan Manuel Marquez, is defending his new strength and conditioning coach, Angel Hernandez, after reports came out revealing Hernandez’ shady past.

Hernandez was known as Angel Heredia and supplied performance enhancing drugs to Olympians, including Marion Jones and Tim Montgomery.

From Abs-cbnnews.com:

In a conference call with RingTV and other boxing media, Marquez defended Hernandez and said he has no knowledge of his new nutritionist’s dealings with steroids.

“I didn’t find out any of this other stuff until it was written over the last couple of days. It was big news to me,” Marquez said.

“I just knew that he had trained a lot of elite and world class athletes before I met him. We talked about what we needed to do. I was very happy with what he told me that I needed to do,” Marquez said, adding that Hernandez has been “a very professional guy.”

“If they want to do whatever doping or drug testing they want to do, Olympic-style, or whatever they want to do, I’ll do it. I’m prepared,” Marquez said.

Former professional wrestler charged for drugs use

Posted By

The Moore County Sheriff’s Office recently disclosed that former professional wrestler Matt Hardy has been charged with possession of steroids.

This news comes just a few days after Hardy was charged with DWI for the second time in less than a month.

From Abclocal.go.com:

Moore County Sheriff Lane Carter said deputies searched a home on Boys Camp Road in Cameron and seized 20 vials of anabolic steroids, one dose of the drug Ecstasy, along with cash and drug paraphernalia.

Hardy, 36, whose legal name is Matthew Moore Hardy, was charged with possession with intent to sell/deliver schedule III controlled substance (anabolic steroids), possession of schedule I controlled substance (Ecstasy), maintain a place to keep controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

He was released from the Moore County Detention Center on a promise to appear in court later this month.

Police at Raleigh-Durham International Airport arrested Hardy last week after a driver reported a 2011 red Chevrolet Camaro was swerving across traffic and had nearly hit a couple of different cars three times.

Hardy and Jeff, his brother, made up a popular pro wrestling team known as the Hardy Boyz.

Boxer had excess amount of potassium in system at time of death

Posted By

One of the contributing factors of boxer Anthony Jones’ death may have been an excess amount of potassium in Jones’ system, an Arkansas State Athletic Commission report released this week.

Jones was knocked out during a January heavyweight bout in Benton, Arkansas, but showed no signs of impairment after Quincy Palmer, his opponent, knocked him to the canvas in the second round.

From NYdailynews.com:

“Jones’ use of alcohol and anabolic steroids, together with his extraordinary use of caffeine, tobacco, and nutritional supplements on top of additional multi-vitamins and potassium supplements without drinking sufficient water, created a biological environment which altered his normal physiological responses and facilitated his demise,” the report said. The complex biological and chemical processes involved in this case made it remarkably difficult for the professionals to reach a consensus as to the specific cause of death. In fact, due to the multiple origins and particularly complex nature of the biological, chemical and physical processes involved, it is possible for reasonable, medically and professionally trained minds to disagree on Jones’ specific, primary cause of death; however, all agree as to the secondary/contributing conditions or factors.”

The report makes the analogy that Jones’ death was similar to the domino effect – once one organ or body function fails, others will soon follow.

“The short and overly simplistic answer is that Mr. Jones died as the result of a cascading systems failure caused by extraordinarily complex biological and chemical processes of multiple origins,” the report says. One of the steroids found in Jones’ system was the veterinary steroid boldenone.

Sin Cara speaks out after suspension

Posted By

Luis Ignascio Urive Alvirde, who performs as Sin Cara and got suspended Monday by WWE, spoke to Mexican newspaper to claim his innocence.

Cara was recently suspended by the WWE for violating the organization’s Talent Wellness Program.

From Wrestleheat.com:

Regarding his real name being made public, which is considered taboo in lucha libre, the SmackDown Superstar said it was wrong but fans are more interested with seeing his face. The full article, which contains audio, is available at Record.com.mx. F4WOnline.com reports that Sin Cara failed a drug test in June. He told officials that he could produce a prescription for the substance he tested positive for, but was unable to satisfactorily do so after several weeks.

Cara believes that a routine injection to his knee to alleviate persistent pain triggered a false positive and denied taking steroids.

Nate Marquardt gets released from UFC

Posted By

The days of Nate Marquardt, the former middleweight top contender, are without a doubt over, according to UFC president Dana White.

The UFC fighter said his medically prescribed use of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is what caused him to register high levels of testosterone but White was far from convinced.

From 5thround.com:

“There’s a difference between testosterone replacement therapy, and where you get it to a level where it’s a performance-enhancer,” White expressed. “I’m not a doctor, so I’m not going to pretend I even remotely know what I’m talking, but I know you get to certain levels where it’s more than testosterone replacement therapy and trying to get back to normal levels.”

Marquardt was previously banned by Nevada’s governing body after screening positive for high levels of nandrolone, an anabolic steroid, following his decision victory over Ivan Salaverry in his UFC debut in August 2006.

He holds an impressive 31-10-2 professional record and is still considered to be one of the world’s top competitors. His manager claims their phone has been ringing off the hook with other promotions throwing offers at the 32-year-old.

“To me this is his fourth chance. This is a fourth chance,” White flatly stated following today’s UFC 132 pre-fight press conference.
