Ryan Garcia Reacts Shockingly After Testing Positive For Ostarine: Is This Career Ending?
Ryan Garcia’s Positive Test Shocker: Is This the End of His Career? From wild social media rants to shocking drug test results, Garcia’s future in boxing is hanging by a thread. Find out what’s next for the star after his Ostarine scandal rocks the sport!
Ryan Garcia’s ‘B’ Sample Confirms Positive for Ostarine
Ryan Garcia’s “B” sample has confirmed the presence of Ostarine, a banned substance, in his system, following the initial findings from the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA). The positive result ties back to Garcia’s controversial fight against Devin Haney on April 20. Garcia had previously tested positive in his “A” sample, which led to widespread speculation about potential performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) in his system. The findings now indicate that Garcia was using Ostarine, a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), which is known for enhancing muscle growth and strength.
Ryan Garcia’s Defiant Reaction and Bizarre Posts
In response to the shocking drug test results, Garcia posted defiant and bizarre messages on X (formerly Twitter). He posted, “I don’t care, I’ll never make money again with boxing your loss, not mine for setting me up lol joke on yall,” and “Let’s go we positive vibes, bruh, yess so happy.” His most notable statement was, “I F—ING LOVE STEROIDS,” which has caused a stir in the boxing community. The statements seem to downplay the gravity of the situation and Garcia’s potential repercussions, including the risk to his career.
Legal Team Responds with Independent Test Results
Garcia’s legal team quickly issued a statement seeking to clear his name. They emphasized that the positive test results were the result of contamination, not deliberate use of performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs). To back up this claim, the team presented an independent analysis of Garcia’s hair sample, which returned negative results. The legal statement reads, “Ryan Garcia is committed to clean and fair competition and has never intentionally used any banned substance.” They argue that the ostarine found in Garcia’s system is more likely due to contamination, not long-term PED use.
The Fight’s Aftermath and Potential Consequences
The positive test results from Garcia’s fight with Devin Haney could have major consequences for his career. In the fight, Garcia went down three times and ultimately lost by majority decision. The test samples were taken the day before and the day of the fight. Garcia will have the chance to present his case at a New York State Athletic Commission hearing, although no date has been announced. If the commission rules against him, Garcia could face suspension, fines, and the loss of his victory over Haney. Haney, who entered the fight undefeated, has already requested that the result be changed to a disqualification victory in his favor.
