Many people out there may well refer to boxing superstar Ryan Garcia as a dope (not us, of course).

But you can’t refer to him as a doper, at least not according to his legal team after a test results showed that tainted supplements appear to be to blame for Garcia’s recent positve doping test.

Garcia rolled with the punches throughout the process and maintained his innocence all along.

Now his team want it on record that Garcia did not conspire to cheat prior to his big victory over Devin Haney.

“The test results from samples of two supplements declared by Ryan Garcia on VADA Doping Control Forms, signed on April 19th and 20th, have returned positive for Ostarine contamination. This confirms what we have consistently maintained: Ryan was a victim of supplement contamination and has never intentionally used any banned or performance-enhancing substances. Any claims to the contrary, questioning Ryan’s integrity as a clean fighter, are unequivocally false and defamatory,” a statement from Garcia’s legal team reads.

“Throughout his career, Ryan has voluntarily submitted to numerous tests, all of which have returned negative results, underscoring his commitment to fair and clean competition. Additionally, multiple negative tests leading up to his fight against Haney further affirm his clean record. The ultra-low levels of Ostarine detected in his samples, in the billionth of a gram range, along with his clean hair sample proves contamination rather than intentional ingestion. The recent test results reiterate this.”

The release stated that Garcia will also hold a press conference at some point next week to adress the latest results.

What does that mean for his future?

Well, Garcia apparently has beef with everyone. But both Logan Paul and Conor McGregor appear to have thrown their names into the ring and could be viable opponents for the boxer who is always up for a big show.
