CANELO ALVAREZ has been blasted after failing two drugs test amid outrage he should be banned for LIFE.
The Mexican middleweight bruiser was given a year suspension by the Nevada State Athletic Commission last night, but will only serve six-months.
The 27-year-old twice tested positive for banned substance clenbuterol after giving samples on February 17 and February 20.
He claimed it was a result of eating contaminated meat, and went on to pass two tests ahead of his rematch against Gennady Golovkin.

And angry social media users, including WBO middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders and promoter Dave Coldwell have hit out at the ban.
