I don´t know if there´s any conspiracy, but it´s obvious WBC prefers to have a US HW champ.. so, Pov might be "popped", but not twice.

It's too weird. He got in trouble for legal traces of a very minor substance then in his first fight back he took a fullblown anabolic PED knowing he'd be under the microscope?
It's up to you to decide whether he sabotaged his own career or someone has it out for him like the guys who threw boystov into a subway

If Povetkin was Wilder he would be blackballed from boxing by now and it would be 100 threads calling for prosecution.
You see how they calling Spence a drug cheat.

I always liked Povetkin & was very impressed with his run following the Klitschko loss. 2 of my favorite boxers Botha & Toney both got popped for PEDS following title wins. I didn't stop liking them & I still like Povetkin but he needs to take his lumps for cheating. I personally think he cheated both times. The first I can give him a mulligan. The drug that was found was a pretty low limit & was only banned several months prior to the failed test but the second failed test was from a drug that was banned in 2008. There are guys who want to make conspiracy theories & that is fine but I think he is guilty & I don't think there is any conspiracy at all. It's not like he is the only one who got caught in recent years.Last edited by joe strong; 02-02-2017, 10:58 AM.
