In a statement, Matchroom said, “We understand a process is underway with the New York State Athletic Commission and Matchroom now defers to the applicable regulatory authorities on the next steps. Whilst we are disappointed by the news, this reaffirms Matchroom’s ultimate desire to regularly test active fighters and ensure we continue to promote a clean and fair sport for all athletes.

  • Tryn to cheat the system and got busted cheating I wasn’t using says he to later say ya I cheated I will never do it’s again ya right

  • regardless of the outcome, still think it’s time for Kownacki to hang up the gloves

  • How come it took all this time to determine this? Did Cusumano fail to send “the big guy” his 10%? I don’t trust these drug checking outfits. Where are they run out of, Las Vegas, the most crooked city on earth, except for Washington DC, founded and operated by organized crime?
