After a failed drug test by WADA, Rivera is all set to join Canelo Alvarez and Oscar Valdez’s camp. Interestingly, both the fighters once failed a dope test by VADA, and their trainer was Eddy Reynoso.
Spence Jr. took a dig at Rivera for his latest announcement on Twitter. Although it is not officially confirmed, Eddy Reyonso’s fans could not keep calm over the news.
Michel Rivera is still in suspension following prohibited drug use
The recent days were not good for the Dominican star, as he suffered a defeat against Frank Martin last year December.
After that, he was put under suspension for using an illegal substance. He was suspended by World Anti-Doping Agency or WADA, for allegedly using hydrochlorothiazide and triamterene. Both drugs work as diuretics which let the body reduce fluid and also reduce blood pressure.
Although two months are over and there is no official information on the reversal of the suspension. In the meantime, Nevada State Athletic Commission still wants to review his situation, and for that, he is put under further suspension till his charges are cleared. Previously his team claimed that Rivera was given these drugs as vitamin capsules.
However, earlier, Canelo Alvarez and Oscar Valdez were also penalized for using illegal drugs. But the interesting connection that is emerging is, they are all trained by Eddy Reynoso.
The Twitter user, Ray Jackson wrote, “Breaking News: Sources say Michel Rivera about to join Eddy Reynoso camp with Canelo Alvarez & Oscar Valdez”.
