Let the fun begin. KO to the man in 3.

" the amount found was very little"

"I'm no expert but from what I've read Peterson had traces of a slow release testosterone drug in his system"

I'm no expert either but from what I've read Peterson's testosterone count was something like 3.8:1 whereas the norm is 1:1 so clearly it was a lot more than a "trace" or a "little".
Also why has Peterson asked for 2 adjournments on the investigation hearing?

I don't think the norm is circa 1:1, pretty sure the usual testing range is 1:1 to 4:1. Peterson's natural level is low, close to 1:1, but he tested at 3.8:1. This is kind of the point. Under the original, less intrusive, testing Peterson's testosterone level was at the top end, but inside, of the normal acceptable range. Therefore it was never investigated further.

However VADA test further irrespective of what the original testosterone readings are and found traces/evidence of synthetic testosterone.

Peterson didn't juice himself more than an average boxer would have naturally but he did raise his personal levels above what they would naturally be = seeking to gain an advantage by unnatural means.

That's interesting. So what you're basically saying is Peterson is a jaffa and the juice in his system was only enough to bring up to the levels of a real man.

Something along those lines, from my understanding. Am no expert and am mainly just repeating what I remember reading when this was discussed at length a few weeks back.

I read an article in Boxing News on 28/6, unfortunately I no longer have it to hand so can't quote directly, but I'm pretty sure what I previously typed was what was stated in the article.

Yeah I thought the Peterson issue was a case of "micro doping" where an athlete tries to bring his testosterone levels up unnaturally but keep the levels just within the acceptable threshold so it wont fail a drugs test.
