Somehow the worst fanbase in sports history will find a way to blame Wilder for this.

yeah all 0 of those povetkin fans are so much worse than the ward fanboys / ggg haters.

Povetkin is a cheating c*nt.

It's been obvious for years. A guy that goes 12 with Huck then out of nowhere starts knocking guys cold.

They are all on the stuff over there...drug cheating is sponsored by the state in Russia. Even their state sponsored hooligans are on the gear

Like the Chinese they are desperate to compete with the Americans and will go to any length to get a win

The fact that it's state sponsored is the biggest problem. On the other hand it's worth remembering that USADA just kept retesting Morales in the hope he would show up clean when he fought Garcia. VADA is the reason these guys are getting caught. There was a time when half this board were saying it was ran by Victor Conte.

crazy we were talking about this just hours before this news came down.

and he's fighting Duhaupas tonight or what?

wouldnt be shocked if wilder ended up fighting stiverne again lol

Which Wilder was hoping for in the first place...he hasn't stepped up since winning the WBC belt yet.

[GGG Gloveking]

So Russia can hack the US election, but they can't find a way to get their boy to pass a damn test?

Anyone know how this plays out with Dillan Whyte winning the eliminator? I dont want to see Stiverne get beat down again...Deontays career has been put on hold because of these cheats...he should drop the WBC title and fight the winner of Joshua-klitschko.

It's wilder/stiverne 2 or stiverne/whyte in final eliminator I would suspect. Although there is a possibility of Wilder not taking a tuneup fight & going straight into a second Stiverne defence.
