CSAC let HIV+ fighter compete on Glory 52

I'm curious about which fighter that is and most interestingly how Marco Rosales found out.
 
Featherweight 65 kg Robin van Roosmalen (c) def. Kevin VanNostrand (ic) Decision (Unanimous) 5 3:00 For the unification of Glory Featherweight Championship
Middleweight 85 kg Simon Marcus def. Zack Wells TKO (Punches) 1 1:03
Middleweight 85 kg Mike Lemaire def. Chris Camozzi Decision (Unanimous) 3 3:00
Lightweight 70 kg Josh Jauncey def. Stoyan Koprivlenski Decision (Split) 3 3:00
Superfight Series
Light Heavyweight 95 kg Pavel Zhuravlev def. Myron Dennis Decision (Unanimous) 3 3:00
Women's Catchweight 53 kg Anissa Meksen def. Ashley Nichols Decision (Unanimous) 3 3:00
Middleweight 85 kg Troy Jones def. Paul Banasiak Decision (Unanimous) 3 3:00
Featherweight 65 kg Zakaria Zouggary def. Bailey Sugden Decision (Unanimous) 3 3:00
 
If the fighter knows he has HIV, he's probably seeking treatment for it, the athletic commission would know this and ensure they are in treatment before approving them to fight. Especially CSAC. If that fighter was in treatment and taking medicines, he represents practically zero risk. If a fighter didn't know he had HIV and was allowed to compete and they found out after the fact, then that definitely is dangerous and presents major problems.

I don't believe their is a treatment that prevents HIV from being contagious...

You could probably narrow it further by eliminating guys that have competed since then.
 
it is most likely one of the guys from the prelims. ( because most have fought since then and every even half way shitty sanctioning body requires these blood tests) From what I can understand the guy who was job it was at the csac to get the paperwork clearing fighters of hiv and hepatitis from their doctor did not receive them for a fighter and he went ahead and signed off anyway allowing that fighter to fight on the event
 
This is completely the commission's fault, but you're a POS human being if you know you're HIV+ and decide to compete in a combat sport.
 
Think it's Paul Nichols. The way he refs he also kinda fights...

He should be sponsored by Kit Kat.

If it’s Zhuravlev it would explain a few things.
 
I don't believe their is a treatment that prevents HIV from being contagious...
if you have an undetectable viral load and are on medications to keep it that way, you pose no risk. At least that's according to numerous medical studies across thousands of people and from the CDC as well. Also once blood reaches the air, even the short amount of time that may occur during boxing, there is virtually no chance of the virus surviving the exposure and superficial cuts do not provide access to the blood stream.

Fair enough, but it would appear he did have a detectable viral load they just cleared him before reviewing the paperwork if what I am hearing is correct. Regardless, the referee should be able to make the call if he wants to run that risk given the circumstances you laid out.
