Comments Thread For: Hearn Says Povetkin Will Be VADA Tested For Joshua Clash

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Eddie Hearn, who promotes IBF, IBO, WBA, WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (21-0, 20 KOs), is not worried about the drug testing path of Alexander Povetkin. Joshua is going face Povetkin, who is the WBA's mandatory challenger, in the fall. Povetkin had more than his fair share of drug testing issues in 2016.

Pedvekin will cycle off for a fight.
Is Joshua undergoing the same testing though?

I don't know if everyone agrees that three fights is a long time.

Also, this article appears to be very misleading. Povetkin is enrolled in year-round random VADA testing anyway. Joshua isn't. Duh, Povetkin is fine with AJ doing the same testing that Povetkin is already doing.

AJ isn't enrolled in VADA's year round random testing. For literally the last three months AJ could be taking almost anything. When a fighter fights once every six months or so, that means that fighter could use all kinds of peds for the three months immediately after a fight, and then quit for the three months before the next fight. That way, you still reap the benefits of peds, but without worry about failing a test. Unless, you are too ****** and push it too close, like many suspect Canelo did.

Povetkin is and has been enrolled in VADA's year round random testing. Ever since the WBC rescinded his suspension a year and a half to two years ago. AJ isn't. Povetkin can't cycle off for one fight, because he has been enrolled in VADA random testing anyway!

AJ on the other hand, just turned down a $50 million payday. If AJ woulda accepted, he could either lose to Wilder or if AJ won, he would then be forced into VADA's year round testing. The same testing Povetkin has been undergoing for some time now.
