Bruno Surace fell from above. Very admiring from Jaime Munguia, the Mexican boxer he had beaten by Ko last September in Tijuana, before losing unanimous decision in the judges La Revanche La Revanche in May in Riyadh, the 26 -year -old Marseillais learned in recent days that his opponent was indeed doped for testosterone at the time of the second fight.
The analysis of sample B confirmed the positive test of sample A, and the British Boxing Board of Control, the British Federation which oversees the Riyadh meeting, should logically cancel the result of the fight. The Mexican boxer claims not to understand how the substance found itself in its body and its clan indicates that it “will soon submit a list of all the supplements and products used by Jaime to a laboratory accredited by the global anti -doping agency for analysis. »»
Surace: “We are waiting for a sanction up to my disappointment”
In the meantime, Bruno Surace feels cheated, and hopes for a sanction against Mexican, as he explained in a long message published on his social networks. “Above all, I want to remember that Munguia is a boxer that I have long admired,” he begins. He is a champion, a warrior, someone who marked our sport. When I granted him this revenge after my victory in Tijuana, it was not a simple choice: it was a process of truth. I no longer wanted to say that I was lucky, that it was an accident. Throughout the preparation, I put my life aside. With my team, we worked like never before we had worked. Each day, each session, each pain made sense: presenting yourself 100% in front of one of the biggest names in boxing. So yes, today the fight is canceled. And even if the truth always ends up getting out, this is not the outcome that I came to seek. That’s not why I sacrificed everything. I cannot rejoice in this situation, because there is nothing to celebrate in there. It’s sad for our sport. It is unfair for those who practice it with integrity. And it is painful for those who fight properly, at the loyal. We are now waiting for a sanction to the height of my disappointment is pronounced by the competent authorities and I stand more than ever for the future. Maybe a fight against another renowned boxer? According to the Boxrec reference site, Bruno Surace is the 31st best world boxer in super-media, while Jaime Munguia is 4th.
