The Mexican warrior obtained a positive result in terms of forbidden substance, betamethasone, in May 2023 after Leigh Wood’s defeat in Manchester. The ban was appointed to start from March 7, 2024, which means that Lara would be entitled to compete from March 6, 2026. The 27-year-old protested against his innocence, claiming that the pollution occurred after the injection within the days preceding the fight, but he insisted that the host insulted that the sketch did not want to explain how the substance was in his system, and he did not alternative reason.
The statement of the Anti -Doping Agency was: “According to the World Anti -Doping Agency (WADA) and appropriate glucocorticoid policy, SKAD, the SKAD conducted a preliminary review, inviting Lara to explain the reason for its positive test result. In response, the SKAD received a doctor’s letter describing how Lara received an injection of dexamethasone on May 12, 2023 (unusual), after the injury of his shoulder during sparring.
“SKAD instructed an independent scientific expert to review the explanation presented by Lara. An independent expert came to the conclusion that the administration of dexamethasone on May 12, 2023 did not include betamethasone in the sample of Mr. Lara, which is a completely different substance. SKAD invited Lara to confirm whether he gave other substances before taking samples, but the boxer was not able to present an alternative explanation.
“The head of SKAD began to inform Mr. Lara that he could commit ADRV for the presence and utilize of a prohibited substance and imposed a ephemeral suspension. Lara was then accused of the commission of both ADRV. In response, Lara did not provide an alternative explanation for the unfavorable analytical discovery. “
Lara went to the peak of boxing in a featherweight in 2021. After defeating Josh Warrington from Leeds and won the WBA Feather Wweight title just over two years ago. But his time as a world champion turned out to be tiny -lived because Wood regained his belt in a rematch later in the same year.
The boxer fought three times since his defeat with Wood, leading against Daniel Lugo in February 2024, defeating Pedro Alejandro Delgado in August 2024 and overcoming Edwing Davil in January.
Lara rarely spoke publicly about her doping ban. However, City from Mexico published a mysterious clue on his Instagram website, which could have been introduced in relation to its suspension.
By publishing a picture of training in the ring on Monday, he wrote: “When you understand the game, you don’t panic.”

Chris Eubank SR tried to stop his tears, discussing the upcoming fight of his son with Conor Benne, claiming that Chris Eubank Jr is only “for money”. Benn and Eubank are to match the Tottenham Hotspur stadium next weekend, including what is described as one of the biggest fights in the history of Great Britain.
But the fight has been criticized, and many, including Eubank SR, suggests that the discrepancies of the mass between the steam are too huge. Benn will have to be promoted from his ordinary division of a 147 pounds to an average of 160 pounds for a competition, and Eubank Jr will have to fall.
Sharing his fears during an interview with IFL TV, Eubank SR explained: “I am so hurt by what he had happened to him, and this is the situation in which my son is now putting in. Connor, they destroy his career if they have not destroyed her yet,” said a boxer when fighting with tears.
“Heritage, long -lasting effect of a specific event, what I and [Nigel] Benn was not a bad language, we didn’t get into the fight outside the studio. Because we had to be noble. It’s a disgrace, if it is not a disgrace that of you, media, will say that this is not a disgrace? Fight me. It’s a disgrace. “
Probably Eubank SR referred to his own fight with Michael Watson in 1991, which meant that the first life -threatening brain. Watson fell in the ring and spent 40 days in a coma before finally regained consciousness.
Eubank SR continued: “We are not a country of peacocks, we are Great Britain, I rest … He [Eubank Jr] I don’t listen to me, I only look at money. What dad does, if a son cannot listen, dad must come and talk directly to the audience. My son will not listen. For him, it is drawn into this “no matter how many millions I can earn.”
Promoter Benna, Eddie Hearn, previously dealt with criticism of weight, stating: “The weight is 160, i.e. the burden of Chris Eubanek, it is a much better hydration for him than the last time.

Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury camp in non -compliance

Eddie Hearn is sure that Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury will eventually take place – but one source close to Gypsy King claims that “he never fights again.” There are many calls to the appearance of Joshua in the ring against the former heavyweight master, but the fight against many money was more unlikely due to the premature pension of Fury after his second defeat Oleksandra Usyk. The 36-year-old announced that in January 2025 he was moving away from the ring after Usyk retained his WBA titles (Super), WBC, WBO, IBO and The Ring Heavywweight Against Fury.
However, between two British warriors for a long time, and the promoter of Joshuzue, Hearn, believes that this can still happen despite road blockades. BBC Sport said: “This is a kind of fight that is probably made over DM between two, text or connection.
“It’s like” Look, do you feel like? “That’s all.
Joshua and Fury were beaten by Usyk in the past. 35-year-old Joshua has been outside the ring since September 2024 after he was knocked out by the current owner of the title IBF Daniel Dubois. Hearn admitted that although there are no titles to fight, the fight would still be an amazing spectacle.
He added: “None of them are masters. Both are huge names, both in the back room, but more importantly, both are still relatively in the perfect side.
“Before AJ lost to Dubois, everyone said it was the best AJ we’ve ever seen. And the Fury never really showed any signs of falling against Uyek. He was just defeated by the first pound number for the pound.”
However, the former promoter of Fury, Bob Arum, is convinced that Gypsy King will never return to the ring, and this time the retirement is indefinite. Fury retired in his career, but Arum is adamant that his elderly customer has passed the need to fight again.
The American lawyer said: “If I were a man to the plants, I would say that he would never fight again. Marvin Hagler had an expression on his face -” a luxurious guy who goes to bed in silk pajamas, does not get up in the morning to do road work. “
“Tyson, really, I don’t think to get up in the morning and perform road work and undergo an experience of economic training when he doesn’t have to do it anymore.”
Despite the retirement of Fury and the time of Joshua away from the ring, the fans are still calling a couple to lace gloves and face each other. Hearn, however, does not seem to be nervous that this fight happened because he thinks that the defeat of the Fury can end Joshue’s career for good.
He added: “If AJ lost again, [the Fury fight] It is not really. Perhaps his career is not, so we are not in any spy. “
Hearn also rejected Arum’s claims that Fury would not fight again because he claimed that the promoter and boxer “never really had the closest relationships.”
“Tyson looks in great shape. I think he said that one day he trains twice a day, so it would be very straightforward for him to go to a 10-week camp,” said Hearn. “Another AJ decision will be very crucial. I hope it is Tyson Fury – we’ll see what the boxes of boxing allow.”
