Comments Thread For: Wilder-Povetkin: Latest Court Ruling Should Finally Provide Closure

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Deontay Wilder and Alexander Povetkin continue to have to relive their fight that never was, although the latest ruling should finally provide closure-even if it means having to once again live with a double knockout. The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City affirmed on June 12 a ruling from last April dismissing claims from both sides of a breach of contract from their canceled May 2016 heavyweight title fight in Russia.

Give wilder his money, and let that Russian drug cheat rot in obscurity. Pedvetkin cheated us out of seeing him knocked out in dramatic fashion.

Next time try reading an article... not just a headline.

"...Studies conducted by World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) were issued in June 2016, informing all that test results showing less than 1.0 microgram per milliliter (µg/mL) of Meldonium were to be deemed as a finding of no fault to the offending participant.

Povetkin’s “A” sample produced 0.07 µg/mL, while the “B” sample showed 0.072 µg/mL, roughly 14% of the maximum tolerable amount as deemed by WADA...."

Doesn’t matter he tested positive again the next text they gave him. Two positives in one year should be a five year ban.

Why is this still a thing???

Povektin's excuse is rediculous.

Molodium was banned in January. He tested positive in late April, 3 weeks before the fight. The WBO pulled their sanction for the title fight.

Povetkin says he didnt use molodium since the previous september, 7 months ago and that caused the positive GTFO of here with that.

That rule was made after the positive test. Thats like getting busted for speeding and they raise the speed limit on the road 3 months later and then say oh so you werent speeding now since we raised the limit.
