Comments Thread For: Povetkin Tests Positive For Meldonium, Wilder Title Off

[elgu]

Vada sure knows how to catch people. Pity for Povetkin that he won't be allowed a TUE, this isn't USADA you know.

In any case he should have known better with all the athletes getting caught with it. The substance was banned and no longer fair play. This is what you get for not keeping up to date.

****ing hell! Is this fight going to get cancelled? This was one of the top fights i've been looking forward too **** **** **** ****!

We all knew he was a cheater. Wilder would/will still put his ass to sleep

What the **** is this dude thinking?!

[Clegg]

My guess is it will come down to whether or not Wilder's team are willing to go ahead with the fight despite the failed test. With the payday involved it's possible they do.

The same way they went light on Sharapova for taking the same drug. Had it been Serena......yup....

How do you know this? Because you're paranoid?

F*uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck! So long Povetikin, Wilder lives on. Hopefully the WBC will order Pulev to step in so we atleast get Wilder in a real fight.

He better puts him to sleep and get that big money (and provide proper medical assistance for that angel daughter of his)...

What a shame, I was looking forward to this, just saw the list of athletes caught using meldonium 99% are either from Russian or Ukraine
