Russian wrestler Dmitrij Baborjko made a creative attempt to conceal that he doped with anabolic steroids.

This by taking a medicine for breast cancer that reduces the effect of steroid use.

However, during the U23 World Championship last year, he got caught in a doping test and is now suspended for two years and stripped of his World Championship silver medal in the 130-kilo class.

Russian wrestlers can compete as neutral athletes in the International Wrestling Federation's competitions.
