[BritishBoxing92]

The heavyweight champion of the world, Wladimir Klitschko, is not interested in Alexander Povetkin's request for both fighters to take part in random drug tests under the company WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency). Povetkin is Klitschko's official challenger under the International Boxing Federation (IBF). [Click Here To Read More]

HAHAHAHAH taking someone elses piss to pass a drug test is not the same as boxing testing, especially in Germany

there are many ways to screen,special elixirs you could say....but there are strict guidelines to make it work...someone would be watching him closely in the same room...he'd have every natural & unnatural ways of cheating...not saying he is but if anyone would have that information it would be a doctor in sports medicine...he'd know what shows up & what doesn't...he's a doctor!

Clean people are willing to be tested.

He's on roids.

Honestly not that far-fetched....

dear lord....now people are going to accuse wladimir of being on steroids...here we goooo...

Why would anyone accuse Wlad? He said NO period, He didnt say yes then back out then made different excuses that would arose su****ions he basically said No from the begining so yeah big difference here.

Here we go again, until the most stringent tests are introduced we will now see this in a lot of fights and even when/if the tests are introduced as mandatory it will still go on imo, even so none of these guys are tested year round so who knows whats going on if you want to be exact, if someone does want to cheat they may do it off season so to speak and avoid the tests that way

[BirdSong]

Wlad and haye need to fight and both of them undergo tests maybe, if your su****ious of one you need to be of the other too imo

I think Povetkin and camp pointing the finger at Klitschko and accusing him of using steroids is crossing the line big time. Ever since this whole Mayweather fiasco, it seems like it's open season on accusing people of taking 'roids. It's not about innocent until proven guilty; now it's, "You've been accused, prove your innocence."

Think about this though: Not a single soul who was ever accused and did NOT immediately do everything in his power to erase doubts, was found innocent. Not one.

From a principles standpoint it makes sense for both Wlad and Pac to say no. But I would like to see the sport cleaned up, so personally I wish all the top fighters would get onboard.

because whichever way you want to look at it, turning down a non mandatory drug test says something, not alot, but it raises su****ions. do i think he is cheating? no not really.
