Comments Thread For: Usyk vs. Spong in Doubt - Spong Adverse Finding in VADA Test

[Tatabanya]

Andy Ruiz Jr will replace Spong at the last minute, will knock Usyk out and then proceed to knock Joshua out in the rematch.

Watch them make Senad Gashi fight Usyk smh

Seems su****ious. Also a disturbing trend with hearn fights. This is the 3rd with drugs as "the story".

Very inconsistent of hearn to publicize this, after keeping so silent about the Whyte affair until after the fight. VADA had alerted all involved, but no one had called off the fight before hearn publicized it. Yet he didn't even alert the other camp in the Whyte situation. Very inconsistent (save all that BBOC (co-conspirators) rules mumbo-jumbo, that won't fly in the US). Doing the right thing trumps that noise.

If Spong's 2nd sample returns clean this will be even more mysterious. Disturbing.

How is hearn so lucky to always have test-flunking fighters and drug controversy in his mix?

Has me wondering how many people are being bought out of their integrity. Lots of strange stuff going on.

I guess Usyk gets any ole cab-driver in light of all this. Spong wasn't a safe enough opponent?

Time will tell.

Whyte didn't fail a VADA test, that's the difference

UKAD has other rules

Dont they normally still let them fight when they fail a test?

No, that's only in UK.

It wont be Chisora thats for sure, Hearn wont sacrifice him to Usyk at late notice knowing he can make more money of him in the UK

Eddie will probobly call up Dave Allen

Parker's pulled out of the Chisora fight and it looks like Spong is going to be pulled from the Usyk fight, I'd watch that fight between 2 jilted boxers - it would remove the obstacle of finding 2 late notice replacements of high enough quality to keep people interested.

No, that's only in UK.

parker wil want a lot of money. he made 12 million bucks to fight joshua. spong is probably fighting for 5% of that at the most.
