## Key Points

- The ITA announced Lozan's suspension on October 28 for three missed whereabouts notifications within 12 months
- All VADA doping tests conducted in Saudi Arabia during the WBC Grand Prix returned negative results
- Sanctions and result annulments apply only to amateur boxing; the professional career is unaffected
- The result of the Lozan vs. Balaban fight (6-round victory) is not annulled
- On December 5, Lozan will fight for the WBC Youth World title

The Top Boxing Generation promotional company, representing Ukrainian boxer Danylo Lozan, has issued an official statement regarding his suspension announced by the International Testing Agency (ITA) on October 28. The team confirmed the anti-doping rule violation related to the failure to provide athlete whereabouts information, but assured that all doping tests conducted under the VADA program returned negative results. It was previously reported that Lozan received a 20-month suspension.

### Three Missed Notifications in 12 Months

According to Top Boxing Generation, the basis for the suspension is three instances within a 12-month period where the boxer failed to provide the necessary whereabouts information in accordance with anti-doping testing requirements. The team does not dispute the violations themselves and states that Lozan and his staff have accepted the consequences of the ITA's decision. At the same time, the promoters emphasize that this is strictly an administrative notification protocol violation and not the presence of prohibited substances in the athlete's body.

### All VADA Tests Are Negative

During the period of the ITA testing, Danylo Lozan was in Saudi Arabia participating in the WBC Grand Prix. It was there that the Ukrainian underwent doping testing under the VADA program. The boxer's representatives reported that all testing attempts showed negative results for prohibited substances. Top Boxing Generation stressed that there is no reason to doubt the athlete's integrity and urged not to confuse a notification protocol violation with a positive doping test.

### Professional Career Unaffected

The promoters paid special attention to the scope of the sanctions. According to their statement, the suspension and annulment of results apply exclusively to amateur boxing and have no impact on Lozan's professional career. Specifically, the boxer's representatives refuted assumptions about the possible annulment of his bout against Danylo Balaban, in which Lozan won by a six-round decision. Top Boxing Generation's statement explicitly indicates that there is no question of canceling the result of this fight.

### WBC Youth Title Fight on December 5

Amidst the proceedings with the ITA, Lozan remains focused on professional boxing. As early as December 5, he is scheduled to fight for the WBC Youth World Championship title. The promoters have not reported any changes to the training schedule or postponement of the fight, which indirectly confirms their position that the sanctions do not apply to the athlete's professional activities.

### Team's Position on Anti-Doping Programs

In conclusion of the official statement, Top Boxing Generation expressed its support for anti-doping programs and stated its readiness to cooperate to the fullest extent with relevant organizations to maintain clean sports. Thus, Lozan's team maintains a position of acknowledging procedural violations while insisting that there is no doping scandal whatsoever in the boxer's professional career.
