Comments Thread For: Alexander Povetkin Ring Return Set For July 1 in Moscow

[ShoulderRoll]

The PED cheat is being allowed back in the ring so soon?

What you're suggesting is boxing turns into another UFC basically. Maybe a good idea in theory, but don't look for it to ever happen. Too much cashish being made by and with all the different sanctioning bodies.

No I'm suggesting elite level boxing becomes like elite level every other sport out there damn near.

And it'll happen...eventually...I'm obviously not holding my breath on it or anything doe...cuz it makes all the sense in the world to have things streamlined + boxing is only getting smaller & less respected year by year in the sports world by not doing it.

wbo ibf also suspended him from fighting from belt but yea he shouldn't be able to step foot in a sanction boxing fight again

Oh fair enough then. I wasn't aware of that. And yea absolutely no commission should allow him to compete in the ring.

he's fighting for no glory...

I don't think he should be fighting at all is my problem, but respect to the other alphabet groups for going along with the WBC on this one.

He's fighting in his home country which is having issues with WADA thus rebelling against them... not much can be done about that...

**** this guy. I don't ever want to see him fight again.

What a shame, he improved so much since his early pro days, after the Wlad loss.

Not interested - **** off Cheater

[LoadedWraps]

Will be interesting to see what Wilder is doing around that time...

LOL no sh^t about that. When your whole country just about gets banned from the Olympics cuz of state sponsored PED usage/cover ups there is a mfing problem.

So Povetkin is basically just fighting for money at this point right? He ain't getting near a title shot any time soon now, so there's no reason for him not to be juiced to the gills to beat some poor bastards brain dead while collecting a nice check. All his boys in Russia will just look the other way or assist in covering up anything they can. Hope somebody else goes in roided up and beats the **** out of this dude. He'll probably end up with someone like Dimitrenko or Rudenko and end their career.

[bballchump11]

It's a shame this piece of **** is coming back so soon.

[tommyg6]

I hope some day that Povetkin fights Wilder and KO's his ass.

[A.K]

Almost all boxers juice they just have ways to cover it up, this idiot just got caught.
