Comments Thread For: Povetkin-Whyte II: VADA Testing In Place Throughout Buildup To Heavyweight Rematch

[kafkod]

Some of these fans are like beetches. Just read the first few comments , it’s like Whyte is living in their heads rent free.

Anyways it’s good to know that we would or should be seeing a clean fight come Saturday.

They will never forgive Dillian for punking Wilder. They seemed to take it personally.

4 or 5 failed peds test between these 2.
Hoping serial cheater Whyte on the end of another KO of the year.

Whyte has never failed a VADA test. Ever. Povetkin has failed 2 VADA tests for 2 different fights. But Whyte is the serial cheater ... ?

I love how this is something that needs to be announced... We shouldn't ever have to hear about this, this shouldn't be highlighted. Don't we all just wish this was something that goes down for every ****ing fight?

True. But it seems like Matchroom are the only ones leading the way with this. PBC/Top Rank/Golden Boy are lagging behind.

im sure Shyte has been back on the D Ball cycle & Sasha got god knows what in hospital when he had covid anyways. VADA doesnt mean **** all tbf.

I can only wish for articles like this about other top fights...

Both these fighters have been popped with PEDs in their system. VADA is apparently easy to game, it was BBoC that popped Whyte, thus the theory that he moved camp to Portugal to escape their gaze.
You read Camus, a little skepticism is warranted, is it not.
Enjoy the fight.

Hearns attitude towards mandatory random testing and drug cheats is no better than any other promoter.

With the history of these two guys they have to test them as much as they can.

The same BBoC who concluded after rigorous analysis that the traces of metabolites were consistent with an isolated contamination event and were not the result of any wrongdoing by Whyte? Gotcha.

I don't understand why you say VADA is easy to game. They catch more cheats in boxing than any other testing agency and are regarded as the gold standard in that respect.

It was UKAD who popped Whyte twice. But the charge they brought against him before the Rivas fight was withdrawn.

UKAD test all BBBoC licenced boxers in the lead up to major fights, whether they are training abroad or not. Just checked their website and found out that, during the covid crisis, they have been asking local testing agencies to take samples on their behalf from UK athletes training abroad. So Dillian won't avoid UKAD by training in Portugal.

I've never read Camus, tbh, other than a few quotes. My avatar pic is artwork created by a friend of mine. I liked it so I decided to use it here. I'm sure I will enjoy the fight. It's a great match-up. Hope you enjoy it too!
