Comments Thread For: Attorney: Garcia Will Submit "Negative" Hair, Nail Samples to Counter "B" Sample Positives

[The Big Dunn]

He should just come out and admit that he did it. However, by continuing this futile attempt to prove his innocence only makes him look more guilty.

As long as his teenage girl minded fans here on NSB and elsewhere on social media defend him, I doubt he does.

I’m sure his social media clicks have gone way up.

I agree. There are also ways one can circumvent a positive hair follicle sample too.

That is true, yes.

[M'Boro]

was it his hair?
how much of the drug does it take to show up in nails hair?
why is hair nails not a standard test (ive heard because its not reliable to use as one, could be wrong or right, expert opinion needed)
if low short term us is it useful for cheating and will it show up?
etc

Primarily because of half life, most drugs will be out of your system in piss tests with 1-7 days so in theory it's all about timing with piss test.

Follicle tests on the other hand can date back 90 days with relative accuracy (85% CI) and can potentially date back years but that's mainly known in drugs like sniff and meth not PEDs.

The reason they aren't used commonly in boxing is because they can only detect long term use and can't detect recent usage (7-10 days before it appears in a hair test) and it's more expensive so the two tests serve different functions.

It’s the same sample.

The A Sample and B Sample are taken from the same blood/urine test.

It’s why the results are never different.

I know. But it’s a second sample. I’m not stating it’s a new sample. It’s a second sample. Sample #1 and Sample #2, Sample A and Sample B. It’s all the same. I’m not trying to argue semantics. That wasn’t the point of my initial post.

Well yeah a second reading of the same sample. So, the same sample.

So it’s not a second positive test, because it’s the same test.

The ***** photo? Lol. Them boys two peas in a pod. Would love for you to explain your comparison tho bc Idk how you can come to that conclusion from a comment. To put into perspective, all politicians are corrupt, compulsive liars. It's just a matter of how well they can sell it to the sheep. Can't compare politics to boxing. Not every boxer is on that Garcia nonsense. Only sheep and cheerleaders buy into what a dude whose actually admitted on camera to lying about ish just for likes says. If I'm wrong about anything I've commented feel free to correct at any time(if you can).

Not all are as dangerous or have as ill an intent as others.

Garcia is on his ***** ****. How long do you give him before he starts attacking and trying to paint VADA as being corrupt?

I agree. But they all have their own agendas and manipulating people with their words is a part of accomplishing that. As you said, some worse than others. Putting that aside, honestly don't think it would take Garcia long for him to go buck-wild on everybody from VADA to the commissions, promoters, etc. The pressure of the general public constantly calling him a cheater, a fake, a phony, etc. will eventually cave him in. No matter how mentally tough you are, nobody like being labeled any of those things and he's shown consistently he has little to no mental toughness at all. When things don't go his way and the going gets tough, he'll always look for a way out in the most unobstrusive way possible. Could be wrong, but based on his character and history, hard to see it any other way. Just my opinion tho.

It's actually 2 separate tests. 1 on the day before the fight and 1 the night of the fight. The A and B samples for both tests have come back positive. Basically they've tested 4 samples in total from 2 different tests

He failed two seperate tests, yes.

But in regards to the A sample and B sample reading, it’s of the same test/sample.
