A well known Canelo opponent who gave more than a good account of himself against the Mexican star has now gone on camera about what he thought of the infamous recent Canelo drugs test.
Canelo failed a drugs test ahead of his rematch with Gennady Golovkin on May 5th with him and his handlers citing contaminated meat in Mexico as to the reason for the positive test.
