ANTHONY JOSHUA has been assured he will be facing a clean fighter when he steps in the ring to face Alexander Povetkin on Saturday. Joshua, 28, defends his WBA, IBF, IBO and WBO titles against former champion Povetkin at Wembley. But question marks remain over Povetkin who previously failed two drug tests in one year - first for endurance-enhancing meldonium ahead of a fight with Deontay Wilder and then for muscle-building ostarine ahead of a clash with Bermane Stiverne.

Povetkin doesn't have a chance in hell here. Even if he was on the juice. He's at a distinct height and reach advantage and even if he lands power shots, he will be lunging and jumping to land them. They will be at the end of his punch which means the end of his power and won't have any impact. Of course he's been paid to not land them anyway but even if he wasn't, he wouldn't be able to.
Some haters claim to be from the UK part of the box but no one gives a heck.
Either you buy the fight or not, it doesn't stop the people's champ to do what he knows how to do best.
I'm not a A.J. hater and neither do I think the guy you aimed this at is.
There's tickets at almost every price still unsold.The truth is Povetkin is nearly forty years old ,has never been world champion and is involved in A.J.'s slowest moving sales fight for many a year....I just look at the facts!
Podvetkin was a former champ and a pressure fighter with only one loss to a serial champ. Ranked #3 in almost all the body's and it's a mandatory not voluntary.
We need to get things right before we write.
His resume speaks for him... 8 consecutive wins after his defeat to WK with 6 coming from KO.
You have to give honor to whom it's due.
Common man.

Lolx... Who are the "we"? Speak for yourself *****.
Nobody is gonna put a gun on your head to see the fight, you are simply a hater and there is no room for your hatred.
Stadium is almost sold out and the buzz is on sky9. Whatsz remaining is for the fight night to come

When a guy turns down 50 million dollars, of course his popularity is going to take a hit. How do you promote a fight with an old ped cheat after that? I know. Less is best.
Lolx..... It's better to promote another 2X PED cheat that fought a local champ..... Smiles.
Wise man!!

I hope the russians have cloned pedvetkn and the clean clone is giving the piss tests and the real pedvetkin comes out for the fight . Eould certainly make the fight more interesting than the clean version
If they could do that they could clone 11 Extra Povs and send a fresh one out each round.
This is so strange with the lack of buzz around this. It's still a huge event but there's no one talking about this like there was for the Parker fight.... and I think this is a much better fight!
I wonder if the Parker performance has affected Joshua's value?
I think it’s probably a combination of too many ppvs, too much Hearn talking about Wilder, not many casuals rate Povetkin and AJ’s fight vs Parker being dull compared to every other big fight recently.
It will still be a big show but AJ is probably getting to the stage where he needs Wilder more than he realises
When a guy turns down 50 million dollars, of course his popularity is going to take a hit. How do you promote a fight with an old ped cheat after that? I know. Less is best.
At his age, a clean Povetkin won't survive 12 rounds bout with Joshua.
Povetkin will be dangerous within the first 5 rounds.
If your right.. I hoping Povetkin KO AJ within five. Lol
