UK Anti-Doping weren't aware that Mexican boxer Moises Calleros had passed away in March before handing him a four-year drugs ban, with the fighter having tested positive for cocaine

Mexican boxer Moises 'Taz' Calleros was hit with a four-year drugs ban before anti-doping chiefs discovered that he'd died three months ago.

Yafai, 31, claimed a fourth-round win via TKO in what was only his fourth professional fight. Subsequently, opponent Calleros has tested positive for the Class-A substance. "UKAD notified and charged Mr Calleros with ADRVs for the Presence and Use of a Prohibited Substance and provisionally suspended him. The case was then later referred to the independent National Anti-Doping Panel to determine whether the ADRVs were proved and, if so, the appropriate Consequences.

Replying to a social media post about the news, Yafai noted: "He passed away in March if you didn't know already! RIP."
