- Joshua wants radical change to help tackle doping crisis
- ‘Why am I under pressure but 60% to 70% of boxers aren’t?’
Anthony Joshua has expressed his frustration with boxing’s inability to tackle its doping crisis and called for radical change so that the leading fighters in the world are subject to random testing.
He was meant to fight Dillian Whyte in London on Saturday night but last Saturday it emerged that his British rival has returned a positive test result for a still unnamed illegal substance. Whyte said he was “shocked and devastated” to learn of the test’s findings, while stating his innocence in a social media post.
