Hm. Interesting development, however, I think I am going to have to wait to see how this plays out before I can form a proper opinion.

No.

He could have been dehydrated on the 27th, and thus the concentration would have been higher.

it's a full blown ped that greatly increases your stamina on fight night. it helps u breath better train harder and thus be in better physical condition.

If that was true, WADA wouldn't be under investigation for banning it given they can't prove any such advantage.

Open your eyes dude. It's a sham.

I used to think Dontae Boxing Nation was a supremacist channel but his views recently fall hand in hand with mine. I'm starting to believe in his coincidental list and I'm already aware of double standards.

It's one thing not giving your opinion and waiting to see the outcome, but to justify the drug and its use despite it being on the banned list is abnormal.

lol you yanks man!. I'm hoping this fight goes ahead but If it doesn't Povetkin should be banned for a year minimum.

[Pigeons]

I think the delay in the announcement is that they are waiting on what happens with the B-sample. Once it gets tested and comes back positive, the fight will be cancelled.

Damn shame.

[Flabulous]

All WBC can do is not sanction the fight.

If Wilder isn't a *****, and wants to get paid thrice as much as he's made thus far, he'll fight.


DON'T ***** WILDER. DON'T *****.

And in case you still question that meldonium is NOT a PED and thus this whole fiasco is a joke:

In summary, there are many other substances that meet the same criteria WADA claims to use, yet those aren't banned. The only studies done on meldonium are on those who had a medical condition; in other words, they were already compromised, and as I said, if the drug normalized them, that's not performance enhancing. No evidence of a perfectly healthy human getting any advantage from meldonium whatsoever. 200 athletes punished over it, 60 in 2016 alone.

This whole thing is a sham.

and... viagra was created to improve vision. Drugs which are meant to impact one symptom/ system can also impact other functions which is why medication infomercials have a 30 sec side effect segment. These nutritionists and strength coaches wouldn't use banned substances for no reason. That being said I'm a conspiracy theorist myself so I understand ur point
