Povetkin refusing VADA testing...could be trouble

I'm hearing rumors that the Povetkin camp is refusing to undergo VADA testing. Could this keep the fight from going forward? If I were Wilder, I'd be very nervous and very suspicious of Povetkin refusing to use VADA. From Wilder, DiBella Begin Legal War With Povetkin, Ryabinsky, posted today: Expressing concern over lack of neutrality – Wilder and VADA are both based in the United States – WoB sought an independent firm in Switzerland to handle such testing. It is being argued by DBE – on the basis of information provided, although it would have to be revealed should this go to trial – that Povetkin’s side simply wanted less stringent testing as to not get caught undergoing what has been suggested by DBE as sophisticated doping methods. As a result, a fight whose purses were determined as the result of WoB submitting a winning bid of $7.15 million at a WBC hearing in late February endured a delay of more than a month in getting both fighters enrolled in random testing. The WBC repeatedly intervened, even reminding WoB that all of its fights follow the same protocol. Hmmmmm...sounds suspiciously like the original post back in March saying that the Povetkin camp was rejecting VADA testing...

Come on guys, dont be silly now Dont try to vindicate this guy just because Povetkin failed the test he supposedly refused to take.. "The fight nearly fell apart because of delays imposed by Ryabinsky to begin the testing. DiBella groused about it and threatened to pull Wilder out of the fight if it did not begin... So instead of beginning about 10 weeks before the fight, which was what was agreed to, it began about seven weeks ahead of the fight.." Dan Rafael, http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/15531574/russian-heavyweight-alexander-povetkin-tests-positive-meldonium-fight-question Hmmm....that sure sounds like Povetkin's team was refusing to undergo VADA testing, as the original post said. And what was the date of the original post? March 30...a little more than seven weeks before the fight...same time as when DiBella was threatening to pull Wilder out. I guess that's all pure coincidence, huh?

**** it, if you a real champ, you fight Povetkin on steroids. It doesnt matter. Let the man fight on whatever he wants to be on. Let's go champ, man up champ. Errr Nope!

Raging Babe ragingBabe May 11 DiBella states that there has been some "bumps" with the VADA testing. They wanted it to begin earlier. What that means....IDK

LOL. Well there you have it, OP.

Not asking if it's true or not simply asking for a source. OP is now saying his source was in person, so if he says he's spoken to the WBC and Wilder, in person, I can't really do much with that since I have no idea who OP is. Guess I'll have to wait and see. he's Benny Blanco from the Bronx. You didnt know? lol

But WADA has something against Russian athletes lately. They only catch Eastern Block countries' athletes, but never others.

The Idea that Manatees are the basis for the Mermaid Myth is nearly as absurd as this thread. TS is a giant faggot.

Wilder be like... POVETKIN ON THE JUICE Yeah look at you motherfu*ker.... http://i.imgur.com/swxelkg.jpg

as of yet, nobody has been able to provide a source. :nonono: end thread/

There is as of yet nothing about agreed testing, this thread is all about unfounded speculation.

Gonna need a source before commenting.

I already stated my sources. Corroboration? How about this: http://www.boxingscene.com/povetkins-promoter-top-euro-lab-handle-tests-wilder-bout--102372 Wilder says VADA testing. Povetkin's promoter says no, it will be a "top European lab." So what I've personally heard is consistent with what Povetkin's promoter has already said publicly. that link is actually a legitimate source.......i thought u were trolling at first but that link is actually legitimate.

Where was this sourced from ? As of yet, nobody has been able to provide a source. :nonono:

Where was this sourced from ?

Considering the person who started this thread I'd say ignore it until there's a source. Or at least ignore it until next week when it becomes public that Povetkin is refusing to sign VADA paperwork and submit to VADA tests.
