There has been yet another twist in the saga of Saul “Canelo” Alvarez and his clenbuterol headaches. Following two positives for the drug, which is considered a performance enhancer by WADA, Alvarez has been temporarily suspended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
According to the LA Times, NSAC said that they had been investigating the clenbuterol issues since early March, and have decided that they want Alvarez to face the commission on April 10th for a disciplinary hearing.
They also got a statement from NSAC head Bob Bennett:
“Mr. Alvarez is temporarily suspended for his adverse analytical finding, and an April 10 meeting with the Nevada Athletic Commission will fully address this adverse analytical finding,” Bennett said.
