Ryan Garcia has been at the center of a controversy involving failed drug tests. Floyd Mayweather commented on the situation, emphasizing his history as a clean fighter and the importance of random blood and urine testing, which he pioneered. Garcia's legal team has stated that the failed tests were due to contamination of supplements with the banned substance Ostarine. Multiple supplements declared by Garcia to the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA) tested positive for Ostarine contamination. Garcia's team is set to hold a press conference next week to provide further details. One of the contaminated supplements has been identified as a raspberry lemonade flavor. Devin Haney's team has been involved in the discussions, and Garcia has been exonerated of any wrongdoing. There are calls for a public apology from Haney's team.
