Povetkin refusing VADA testing...could be trouble

[BennyBlanco]

still, no source yet?

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.

Ah... the good old 'spot a likely upcoming scenario, post about it early and pretend to be an insider' trick. Works like a charm really, you'll disappear if it doesnt happen and re-emerge as another random account, or the very likely scenario comes to fruition (issues regarding the testing agency).

Nope. I'm telling you what's actually happening inside the camps, right now. Not what's upcoming.

Problem is, no one believes you. Not even the people who agree with you. You'd be better off changing the thread title and using the sources and quotes I generously gave you. It's clear that Povetkin's camp is avoiding VADA and you have quotes to back it up. Nobody believes the "inside scoop" (nor should they) so give it up as it just hurts the credibility of your argument.

IF this is true then Wilder should insist on VADA or else tell Povetkin to go kick rocks.

Another Russian dude refusing testing...wow.

It's becoming a big problem over there.

Old news...statements from promoters and trainers in advance are often posturing. What's happening now is Povetkin actually refusing to sign and return VADA paperwork and refusing to take other actions to accommodate VADA testing.

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.
