Comments Thread For: Povetkin Kept in Mandatory Postion To Deontay Wilder's Title

[Bronx2245]

I just wish the same people putting so much time into investigating Povetkin would have at least kept it 100% fair why was Floyd Mayweather not properly investigated?
Boxing politics absolute bull****!

I thought Povetkin already cleared his name against this ****.

While we're keeping it 100%, why wasn't Pacquiao investigated after his own trainer Freddie Roach said Alex Ariza was giving Pacquiao "suspect shakes?" Why didn't Lampley do a show on that? You're right, boxing politics is absolute BS!

They're both SUSPECT, and so is Povetkin and many others! We just need the WBA and IBF to follow the WBC's lead and develop a year-round testing program!

I don't understand why you guys have to lie so much. Wilder's team cancelled the fight? Are you guys sick or something? Do you type these things from your bed in the mental ward or what? I really don't get it?

Everybody knows the wbc postponed the fight pending further investigation, so why lie about something so obvious?

Mm yeah... like Wilder had nothing against making the fight.

WADA guidelines didn't account for a guy having a clean slate for three consecutive blood tests and then having the drug magically re-appear again. But then again, we both know this and it's obvious you just throwing shade on the facts to confuse the casual.

Ps. You're not a Wilder fan, a Wilder fan wouldn't blatantly lie like you just did.

It's not magic. Some drugs are stored in fat cells, so they can re appear in the blood stream when fat is being burned, in very small quan******. Exactly what happened here. Nano grams of meldonium were detected, way below the illegal limit.

So, the OP reads: "The World Boxing Council has released their ratings for the month of August and Olympic gold medal winner Alexander Povetkin (30-1, 22KOs) has retained his mandatory position, sitting at number one, to WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder..."

... and it reads what it reads...

i feel that povetkin was cheated or at the very least played by someone deep in the industry. i do not believe wilder nor his team wanted that fight, especially his "adviser".

Perhaps so, this fight just has to happen.

This is great news. Now the only way bumsquad can avoid his beating from povetkin is by vacating. Happy days.

Umm dummy the rankings didn't change because its status quo, WBC didn't make they ruling yet if he loses mando spot or not way to jump the gun though

[Larry the boss]

You wanna know what? when you are doing steroids (just as every HW) you don't go there cancelling fights or saying stuff like: "I will fight him but can he pass the test?". That's a ***** move. You're taking roids aswell, be a man and fight and don't make excuses.

WBC cancelled the fight.

I havent followed this much but wasnt the amount found in his system below the legal amounts or something?

Yes...and this is what many boxing fans are completely overlooking.

The amount found in his system clearly was not above the allowable limit, but you got folks out here saying that Povetkin "failed" the test.

There are a lot of athletes from Russia that had meldonium in their systems after January 1st that appealed because it was below the guideline set by the anti-doping agency.
