Outrage mounts with Erkan Teper

Kalle Sauerland

OUTRAGE has been directed at Erkan Teper after reports that the former European heavyweight champion failed a drug test emerged.

Teper knocked out Britainโ€™s David Price in two rounds to win the European crown, a belt which he vacated citing an injury.

Priceโ€™s promoters, the Sauerland Brothers took to social media to say, โ€œSHOCKING! Fighter was doped in big fight with a ‘big’ commission. It has taken them FIVE months to report. Wait til you hear it! Disgrace.โ€

It is an unpleasant reminder for Price, who hasnโ€™t boxed since losing to Teper in July. Davidโ€™s other conqueror, Tony Thompson was subsequently handed a ban for an anti-doping violation.
