Comments Thread For: Alexander Povetkin: I Want The Joshua Fight Immediately

He & AJ probably use the same kind of Steroids

Nah, AJ is clearly using better steroids.

[M Bison]

Can believe it that hes in this position as boxing is a joke.

Well you have a steroid cheat holding 4 belts in HW division so why are you surprised?

You really need proof for this? Use your god damn eyes man!
I was saying the exact same thing about Nelo before he got popped as well.

Problem with that is that PED use doesn't necessarily equate to a chiseled set of abs. There's guys using who look pudgy and out of shape and others who are clean, at least as far as we know, that look fantastic.

That's why we have testing. Joshua is possibly the most tested boxer in the sport and he's yet to fail a test.

In any case, if you want to use your eyes why don't you take account of his gassing halfway through a fight? If you only take note of evidence that supports your case and not that which undermines it you've blown all claims of being objective.

pretty much on the nail

I understand bro, everybody wants a piece of that glass chin, everyone who has a punch is anxious because once this fraud gets knocked out, his stock will drop along with him

[Kezzer]

I can understand his view point. If Joshua faces wilder , there will likely to be two matches - it goes to next year. By then mandatories will likely be called from most the bodies so what’s the guarantee he will even end up getting a shot. Even more than that he may end up fighting wilder which is worth much less than Joshua.

I would be pushing to fight now in his position too, better to be guaranteed the fight than wait and hope.

Steroids don't give you an infinite amount of stamina hence why Canelo punch output through most fights is generally always low, the roided up version of Nelo who fought GGG gassed halfway through the fight just like AJ who gassed through the Parker fight...
Steroids aren't some sort of magical pill that will double your stamina and double your lift, but they will give you an unfair advantage in training fitness hence why an awkwardly tall guy like Joshua is capable of retaining the muscularity and power that he has whilst doing all the hard cardiovascular work that follows a true boxing regiment.

Is Anthony Joshua taking gene doping tests? Or how about getting tested straight after waking up for HGH detection? The answer is no!

So being the 'most tested boxer in the sport' doesn't really mean much, if the testing isn't complete or sufficient enough.

If Povetkin were to be on significant PEDs that would significantly have improved his attributes, he would've turned into a 250+ pound Ike Ibeabuchi like boxer whilst improving his overall athleticism. But such isn't the case! Povetkin has always remained the same, in terms of weight throughout his entire career. His punching power has also remained the same, relatively speaking. Same with his speed and overall athleticism.
