Comments Thread For: Povetkin's Promoter: Wilder is NOT Getting Paid Until He Fights!

[techliam]

Historically speaking and even now if you evaluate the best each divisions has to offer the WBC by far have most of the dominate champions. There is no other belt in the history of sports that compares in prestige even Vitali said that he did not hold the rest of the belts but he hand the ONE that matters even tho little bro was playing with his trinkets.

The WBA have an equal claim to that

The idea that the WBC is still the most prestigious is a myth. It hasn't been that way for a long time. The only division where the WBC champion has a decent claim to being no.1 is Flyweight

This is such an odd situation, Povetking was tested numerous times and apparently 3 times in like 4 days at one point and came up clean then he pops for this minuscule amount of whatever this crap is.

Is Povetkin and his team that dumb to use something knowing they would be tested again probably more than once before the fight? Were the other tests not done correctly? Did he test again the day after or since?

Seems weird to me...

If Ryabinsky tries to show that the 1st/2nd tests were not comprehensive..... and that the 3rd, was then.....Povetkin STILL FAILS

Nah, if Ryabinsky can somehow prove that the initial testing process was not comprehensive..... e.g. they didn't test for that particular substance in the first few tests, or that the first tests were urine only and the last one was blood..... then he may have a case......

..... but I would say that he is pretty well fk'd.

He needs to prove that the initial testing was somehow DIFFERENT, which is why the substance wasn't detected until now.

wilder sees his opportunity to run and he goes for it hahahahahaha coward. hes running from 70 nanograms of a drug that isn't scientifically proven to enhance performance. pathetic. JUST POSTPONE U PUNK!!!!!!!!!!! and let the testing continue.

povetkin easily KOs wilder. i want to see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Floyd found with nothing you scream dirty trick. Povetkin found with banned substance, his opponent should wait for again. Shoe on the foot, Wilder would be the worst thing in boxing. You racist fans are the shameless yet.

[aboutfkntime]

tell me if he took it recently then how come 70 nanograms???? that is absolutely incredibly tiny to be something taken recent. again a small amount of a drug can weasel its way into a test. doesn't prove he took it recently. it just proves it is still lingering in his system. makes sense now. not hard to understand.

True, it seems very minor.

Maybe they can dilute it, or flush it when they cycle off..... no idea.

But that is way easier to explain than why the first tests came up clean.

It's not looking good for Povetkin.

Like it or not WBC have more current lineal champions of course you can argue about it given the fact some have retired others have recently moved up..but Im not here for that now -- I just came here to laugh at you haters.

What i meant was it doesnt matter if he proves 1/2 werent comprehensive and the 3rd was cause Povetkin failed the 4th test

It's a turd-polishing contest.

So what if the WBC-turd is shinier TODAY, than the WBA-turd, the WBO-turd, and the IBF-turd..... the WBC-turd is still not definitive.

They don't consistently get it right, so they cannot be relied upon.

They have never recognized Wladimir Klitschko as the best heavyweight on the planet..... and their current middleweight champion has never faced a middleweight opponent, EVER!

well no **** maybe if u could keep from cheating the fight would be happening

[johnm is...]

u are a punk like ur hero wilder who runs from 70 nanograms hahahahahahahahaha. why not postpone?? becuase he is scared.

It's a lot easier to assume that the "scared" fighter, is the one that was trying to get an unfair advantage. You can cry "but it was just a little bit!" until your blue in the face. Your guy felt like he needed to cheat to beat Wilder. That's scared.
