Jaime Munguia Faces Sanctions After Failed Drug Test

News summary

Jaime Munguia, former WBO world champion, tested positive for synthetic testosterone metabolites in a VADA doping test after his unanimous decision win over Bruno Surace on May 3 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Munguia has 10 days to request a B-sample analysis, which, if positive, could result in his win being overturned to a no-contest, a suspension of up to one year, and a possible fine. Surace, who had previously knocked out Munguia, publicly called for the rematch result to be overturned and highlighted the importance of fairness in boxing. The rematch marked Munguia's first bout under trainer Eddy Reynoso, who has coached other fighters with doping controversies. The British Boxing Board of Control is expected to enforce disciplinary actions if the positive finding is confirmed. The final outcome awaits the B-sample analysis, which will impact Munguia's career and the official record.
