Comments Thread For: Wilder Moves On From Povetkin, Plans Midsummer Ring Return

[robbyheartbaby]

Feel for Wilder, training camps would be s*** especially all over the world like that. Povetkin blew it, move on, hopefully still get 2 to 3 more title defenses in the US. Povetkin can wait and earn it again.

but wilder aint hahahahah. you left out david haye who keeps getting bigger and briggs

we don't have proof about those fighters tho

Anthony Joshua would be a great match up for Deontay Wilder. He is a World title holder and very green. He'll make an excellent tuneup for the winner of Fury/Klitschko II.

Pedvetkin promoter is one that said his test came back under the threshold to try and have fight go on because it fits they agenda vada the company that he tested positive for have not said that it was promoter

Dumb fk also said it was the blood test. He FAILED the Urine Test. Go read it. He says BLOOD test. Lol can't even keep his lies straight.

I do to. That's a lot money down the drain. Bringing entire team overseas?? He also had his flight ready to leave that Sunday. I don't believe for one second he last took the drug in Sept. And how do you pass 3 blood tests looking for that drug and fail a urine one??? Because you took it between those dates. They still haven't asked for the B Sample to be tested. Or *** take another test and if it comes up the same numbers then I could believe his POS story. Instead their pulling a Lance Armstrong move and attacking the other guys.

Lol at people blaming wilder

I know!!! Some people have no shame... I would be saying g the same thing if Wilder failed his test. I don't care what color or nationality a CHEAT is! I lost a LOT of money betting on Oscar when he fought Mosley the 2 time. And to know that Mosley was juicing!!! Really hurts.

I have ZERO tolerance for cheats.

I like Povetkin a whole lot better than Wilder. I wanted Sasha to knock Wilder out. I can't believe the crap I'm reading from the Wilder haters. I'm as unbiased as it gets as my favourite fighters were Lennox Lewis, James Toney, Francois Botha, Andrew Golota & Neven Pajkic. I don't care where you are from or what colour your skin is. 2 of my favourites were drug cheats. When they won world titles (Botha & Toney)at HW I was excited but it was short lived as they both failed their post fight tests. I was disappointed but I didn't make up excuses nor did I stop liking them. They FAILED a test & got what they deserved. Povetkin got caught cheating & he should pay for it. It's not like he won't get a shot when a suspension is up. Ortiz got an immediate shot at the interim title even after he failed. He should of lost his ranking & had to work his way back up but he didn't because GBP backs him. It will be no different for Povetkin. He may lose his mandatory position but he won't be far off because of who his promoter is. It's not Wilder's fault Povetkin's team got caught. Let's not forget Povetkin has already dropped out of 2 mandatory shots in his career. One Rahman replaced him & the other Sam Peter. Maybe POVETKIN IS THE REAL COWARD here. 2 drop outs & now he fails a drug test a few weeks before fight night. Everything points to Povetkin not wanting the fight not Wilder.

Its cherry season.

Time for another cherry picked mediocre for the canelo of the HW division. Wilder weaseled out of Povetkins doom he should be forced to rematch Stiverne at least.

What are you smoking? Joshua isn't a tune up for anyone.

I'd still favour Wilder if they were matched up though. Wilder has more experience, he's much faster and can go the distance.

He passed the three blood tests and they do look for Meldonium. Even said that Meldonium was not in his system. He failed at Urine Test. And no one said how much. Only Potkvekin side said it. Please provide link where it was 70 nano whatever.

If he comes up clean than I'll admit I was wrong. But 1st he has to ASK and pay for the B Sample to be tested. And so far he has not. If that comes up positive then your considered an "official cheat" A sample Only tells the parties involved.

When is he gonna ask for the B Sample to be tested???

Your post is inaccurate. WADA uses urinary testing to detect Meldonium.

Blood testing is NOT used to test for Meldonium. Hence, all this Povetkin hate should wait until the jury gives it's review over this case. Make no mistake--- they are reviewing this case for sure (well, that should be obvious).

Unfortunately, there's a lot of second guessing and finger pointing going on here when nobody knows the exact details. As I've said before, Povetkin could be guilty or innocent (innocent in that the Meldonium was taken before January/the ban date).

Again: WADA urinary testing is used to detect Meldonium.

So it's basically this:
A) Povetkin 3 blood tests pass
B) The urinary test detects the Meldonium in his system

Leaves us with the big question of:
C) When was the Meldonium taken?

Hence, even if he did request to check for his B sample, it would probably still fail as the Meldonium remains in his system regardless.

What do you think will happen if it turns out Povetkin did take Meldonium only before the ban date, and never afterwards? That spells disastrous for team Wilder. Of course, it's disastrous for Povetkin if he did take it after the date.


Regardless, everyone here needs to shut the **** up and wait.
