    Those in team Wilder are free to do whatever they want to do...

      The problem for Povetkin is that he tested clean 3 times in April and then tested positive at the end of the month - it suggested recent usage.

      This was at the end of April and we are only finding out about this now. So there was a period there when things were being kept under wraps and the parties were presumably going back and forth as to what was going on with the levels in Povetkin's sample. IDK, the fact this dragged on for so long suggest that Wilder wanted to believe the story that these levels were holdovers from past usage. He wanted to go on, but upon further examination of the previous clean tests in April, consultations with PED experts, etc....it's clear to see that it's highly unlikely a positive sample would occur out of thin air.

      Maybe there is an explanation as to why Meldonium might not show up on a given test and then show up on another, I just haven't heard one yet and I'm sure Team Wilder never heard one either.

              I thought the "protocol" was suspension. Anyway, spin it any way you want. It won't change the fact that Povetkin cheated and if the fight never happens, we only have him to blame.

                There are right to cancel the fight and sue the Promoter and Povtekin and WBC perfectly legal grounds to do so.

                You not from a legal background so wont understand, but a contract was sign and now invalid due to drug taking simple really

                  Exactly! A contract was signed, you got caught cheating the contract becomes null & void. Can someone ple tell me who has Povetkin beaten? Who has he fought besides Klitchgo (which was a horrible performance)?
