1) I dont think you are race baiting. It is a legitimate question and everyone has their own ideas, experiences, and opinion
2) You're not a white devil, its just that you can't illegitimize experiences of people from other races when you havent had to deal with their issues or day to day life. I can tell you what irish go through in britain or whatever nor can a brit tell a hispanic how it is for them in america. it goes both ways.
3) Povetkin hasnt fought in a while so idk if "traced amounts" is accurate. He may have been using it recently in small doses and maintaining his cycle time, who knows but IMO the reaction from fans is telling.
4) Povetkin has had the weakest reaction I've seen of a fighter testing positive. I never saw a fighter have excuses made for them for cheating and they are giving him benefit of doubt, which is fair. Yet others have positive tests, regardless of usage, bad meat, medical exemptions, or IV usage and they are automatically labeled cheats.
5)Personally its a double standard imo, its one in everyday life so why would it be different in the media or sports. Mexicans and blacks are labeled as criminals, lazy, dishonest by american media all the time and often make the worst instances visible and dont show much positive images.
6) The guy that killed 9 people in black church was apprehended non violently and was even taken to burger king because he said he was hungry before they turned him in. No guns on him, didnt beat him up, and the guy is a murderer.
ever heard of james dillion vs the nypd...this guy murdered several people, attacked cops and was not killed when apprehended but taken to the hospital...yet unarmed people of color are killed and beaten daily....just look up instances in this year alone in the us
is the definition of a double standard is laws, police profiling, safety, etc.
