Comments Thread For: Wilder vs. Povetkin Heavyweight Title Fight Officially Postponed

[Szef]

I was really looking forward to seeing this fight

**** you, Povetkin.

He had 3 clean previous test but then tested positive for a 4th one, so that excuse about using it on 2015 cannot add up, this positive test meant he either was trying to use a low amount of it whilst training and he end up getting caught.

Well Povetkin had a heart condition, that's why he like Maria sharapova was taking that heart defect pill (Medonium).... They didn't take it to cheat... I promise

LOL"!

Maria will probably get off easy.

Whole country of Russia been on "ped probation" since last summer and things get worse and worse.

Still no one will have the guts to kick them out of the Olympics.

LOL, Ortiz was only banned for 8 months for ANABOLIC steroids. Expect Povetkin not to be banned at all, the fight will be postponed and scheduled for a date later in the summer. Povetkin will be randomly tested until that point (no excuse for it to be in his blood), and if he passes, no reason the fight shouldn't happen at that point.

Called spot on before it was OFFICIALLY announced. Green K for you.

Real fans will continue to be excited that this huge fight will still happen, and eyes will be on Povetkin to be on his best behavior.

Absolutely gutted.

I don't think he will. "Postponed" is code for "give WBC more time to line up the next eliminator and get the paperwork in order for Povetkin's 1-year suspension."

I'm rooting on this being the reality, but I got no faith it'll happen. It definitely seems like Povetkin used this substance in training & while it was a banned substance. If the WBC wants to start its upcoming Clean Boxing Program right it needs to handle this situation right or that'll just show how limp ****ed the CBP will end up being.

[Cinci Champ]

did anyone honestly think povetkin was clean anyway?

[b00g13man]

Fuck Povetkin

[Baltimore]

I was really looking forward to seeing this fight

**** you, Povetkin.

My thoughts exactly.

Really ****ed Deontay and boxing fans over with his cheating

[RussB23]

If Wilder fights a bum, he should just drop the title

WTf? Your acting like this is his fault, blame the ***** pedvetkin.
