Danny Weidler baseless sensationalism/gutter journalism thread

1. If Weidler is being spoon fed a bogus story that he is eating up without researching it - shame on him and this will be his career down the tubes in this country. No editor or producer will want a bar of him.

2. If Weidler is spot on and he does have official results from a test that happened, good on him. He did his job. No medals given out for doing what you're paid well to do.

Pretty sure the results would be sent to the relevant boxing authorities and to Bothas management.

Really doubt results would be sent to Nasser which is the only way he would get his hands on them.

I am not clued in on the testing procedures in boxing any more - I thought pre-fighting testing wasn't something out of the ordinary in any country when a title is on the line.
Boxing isn't signed up to WADA. So ASADA supposedly getting Botha for doping is nonsense. Typical Weidler crap.

There are no lab results. Weidler is talking absolute shit.

Lab results would not even be back after 3 days like this either. Let alone a copy given to a piece of shit journo like Weidler.

Storm presser tomorrow according to Webster.

He assumed it's was announcing Bellamy re-signing.

I reckon you would be nuts to announce pressers in this climate!

But did Weidler say Botha failed a ASADA drug test or a drug test?

I have read somewhere tonight a story that the sample was tested by the WBA.

The WBA don't need to be there to conduct a test. Just contract a local lab here todo it all. Not saying Weidler is right but a WBA official not being there doesn't mean he wasn't tested

Surely it had to be sanctioned? Ha that would be a farce and be ruinous to Kill Billy's career.

I don't follow boxing, but a bloke on Talkin' Sport the other day saying they don't do any testing in boxing in Australia.

Whether this is true or not, how would Weidler get the report?

Just listening to Jeff Fenech on 2ky stating it takes weeks to get drug test results back.. Weiner is a lying tool.

Im getting the strong impression that Danny is going to come out and say it was a "privately organised test" and that it was the SBW camp that basically "organised" it.

Which is all kinds of muckraking.

Whats even more annoying about this whole thing is that fact that its distracted everyone from realising that he fought a 44 year old tub of shit in the worst shape of his life.

I thought as much too. Someone, likely Weidler, is going to have a lot of damn egg on their face. Again, if Weidler has ate up a "story" from the Nasser camp without doing proper fact checking shame on him. If he is proven to be wrong here I cannot see how any publication or tv network could continue with him.
