Per Examine, Clenbuterol is an illegal beta-adrenergic agonist used to beef up livestock (before a metabolite was found to be toxic). It is like ephedrine, except much more potent and stays in your body for a day rather than just 4 hours. It is a potent fat loss and muscle preservation agent with side effects.

Per GBP, there were only trace levels of the drug, which are said to be consistent with meat contamination. This has impacted athletes training in Mexico over the past few years. Per Daniel Eichner, Director of SMRTL, the WADA-accredited lab that conducted the tests, "these values are all within the range of what is expected from meat contamination."

Canelo is moving his training camp from his home country of Mexico to the United States and he has agreed to submit to a variety of VADA testing ahead of the highly anticipated rematch. 

"I am an athlete who respects the sport and this surprises me and bothers me because it had never happened to me," said Canelo. "I will submit to all the tests that require me to clarify this embarrassing situation and I trust that at the end the truth will prevail."
