BBBC president Nipper Read dismissed Johnston's defense in a March 13 letter to WBC president Jose Sulaiman. He seeks to account for the fact by saying that he took a cold cure some eight or nine days before the contest. This is now proved to be a tissue of lies. Johnston's trainer Miguel Diaz dismissed the BBBC's complaints. Stevie didn't take any illegal substance.
Ephedrine is nothing anyway.
