Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev Tests Positive For Synthetic Testosterone, Putting Jan. 30 Bout in Jeopardy

[Apollo7]

I don't think anybody is surprised by this.

The fight was originally scheduled to be in Moscow. Maybe he figured anything goes over there and he'd be safe.

VADA is VADA so it doesn't matter where the fight was to take place.

Kovalev has always done voluntary testing. Voluntary, or maybe his "nutritionist" messed up? In any case, it's disappointing news.

Whatever it was, he's definitely not getting the Canelo treatment of popping positive for PEDs. Some people here were almost blaming GGG that Canelo popped positive...

plenty of clowns in boxing but none bigger than Khan. Gets sparked by underdog Prescott and blames corner. Gets new trainer, gets sparked by underdog Garcia and blames trainer and lucky punch. Gets new trainer again and gets sparked by canelo. Blames trainer and alleges 40 pound weight gain. Gets new trainer. Gets embarrassed by Crawford and quits. Now is finally ready to fight brook after blatant ducking for years. Oh and he told the world Aj made him a cuck and smashed his wife. No bigger clown in boxing than that guy..period.

Many good to great fighters in history have been beaten by underdogs. Nothing exclusive here.

Khan clearly was at the wrong weight at Lightweight. LightWelter was clearly more suited to him as it proved. His punch resistance improved immensely.

He's beaten Kotelnik, Mallinaggi, Maidana, Alexander, Judah and Peterson. Wilder has not one win anywhere near as good as any of these.

He also has decent wins, all better than anyone Wilder has beaten too in McCloskey, Diaz, Collazo and Algieri.

Thinking it was something bad in losing to Canelo who was a Cruiserweight like he always is when he steps into the ring (Canelo doesn't like giving his fight day weight because it will expose this) is beyond ******. No Welterweight including Floyd had he fought that version and at that weight would have beaten him.

Stepping inside with the lead uppercut from the outside into a fighter that throws the left hook when ever you move was taught by Freddie Roach. You saw the result of why that is criminal to do such a thing. It wasn't amateur, it was dangerous as you saw. It wasn't a pay off punch that ends the fight immediately if it lands. The straight rights from the outside where more powerful and doing more damage whilst being at the correct distance against Danny's style. That shot made no sense to anyone who isn't backwards. Roach should have been questioned more on that move but he wasn't. He got away with it.

Khan has only ducked Brook. Wilder has ducked f3cking everyone. Khan has travelled and won against world level fighters. Wilder hasn't even beaten one, let alone travelled to beat one. He hasn't even attempted to do so. Khan has said some deranged shlt when it comes to the topic of Brook. Wilder says nothing but deranged shlt on every subject matter. Wilder is a coward. A pathological liar. Pathologically delusional. He has no courage to speak of. He's a pathological hypocrite. He can't say a single sentence without contradicting himself. He has a serious personality disorder. So Khan is bad, but he's nowhere near to the level this freak is. Nowhere near.

Apples to Oranges. Canelo had a small substance consistent with tainted meat. There is little to no benefit from that substance outside of extremely high doses. It was months before his next scheduled fight. There would have been no benefit for him that far out from a fight.
Plus that same test would not have triggered a fail result based on current standards.
Plus he had a better performance in the second GGG fight with more stringent testing involved.
But hey don’t let the facts get in the way of your hater narrative.
Kovalev was deep in camp and came up dirty. I doubt he just decided to do this for this fight he was favored in vs a fight vs the top P4P guy that would have been a legacy win and set up bigger paydays.
It’s like Margacheato’s loaded gloves vs. Mosley. Does it makes sense he did that in a fight he was a heavy favorite but not the Cotto fight he was a slight underdog in?

I'm not going through this all again. It's been proven false all the defence for Canelo on this subject. Search the forum to find facts that conquer every lie being told by Canelo fans.

Canelo was never tested that far out of competition before. That's when drug cheats are mostly doing their cycles. What you're saying makes no sense.

Canelo fought differently than the first fight, but still lost by the same margin on my card. It just looked better for him but brought no better results. Plus, Gennady was older by that point and clearly gassed out in the middle of the fight but held out like Prograis did against Taylor.

Kovalev is shot and is probably looking for a boost in the same way a shot Bute did after losing to Froch. But you're just looking to make Canelo look better like all his nutter fanatics do. I've already dropped a post with all the facts you could want on it only for you to ignore it. Go and search your quoted posts and look for my name. It was in the last week so you won't have to look far. It's a real haters narrative. And it's constant. All slander and can be proven as such.

Do you consider every Mexican fighter who fails a drug test to have been on it always? Or will you contradict yourself like you've become accustomed to?

he’s a clown and the thesis you wrote won’t change that.

I don't dispute the fact he's a clown. I'm dis*****g your opinion that he's the biggest clown in boxing. He isn't. Deontay Wilder clearly is. There's many more before you get to Khan. But i know you'd rather have any other fighter from a different nationality than the biggest clown being from the US. That's the clown house the US. You've produced more clowns than the rest of the world combined. Your desperation won't change that either.

what’s your definition of a clown? Wilder is a clown for getting his ass beat by fury and then making up absurd excuses. Khan is a clown for getting getting ko’d multiple times in comedic fashion, twice by significant underdogs, quitting in the ring and always blaming something or someone else. Literally every single time. Not to mention him telling the world that Aj fked his wife. There’s no argument that can really place anyone above him. Even Wilder. Who at the very least didn’t quit.

Canelo tested positive for clenbuterol not synthetic testosterone.

And Mexico has a legit problem with clenbuterol being used in the meat industry. Entire youth soccer teams have tested positive for clen down there. It's a real thing.

That's why the dirty cheat Kovalev isn't going to get the same treatment.

I just don't see any upside for Kovalev taking test.

Why the risk? What would be the reward? He needs to focus on boxing Bek and stamina, not more power.

It's too big of a risk and Kovalev knows damn well about testing. He's always tested without issues. I think someone in his team messed up and gave him something they shouldn't have.

I just don't think Kovalev would voluntarily dope himself for that fight. Call me an idiot, but I just fail to see the logic.

Wilder is the absolute definition of a clown. Every inch of him.

Losing to Fury isn't really the reason why he's a clown. It's a tiny part of it. What makes it embarrassing was Wilder's side trying to get him weak so he could go further into his delusions, if that's even possible . Wilder hasn't fought anyone other than Fury who is actually world class. Khan has a good handful of world class wins. And if Khan were to fight a damaged fighter the way Wilder did in the first Fury fight, Khan would put them in the hospital within the first couple of rounds. Wilder fighting the level Khan did would have seen that idiot wiped out from the get go. He doesn't have the capabilities to achieve what Khan has. Not this life or the next.

Did you just talk about excuses in an discussion about which one out of Khan and Wilder is the biggest clown and think it was Khan here? All fighters in history combined don't even equal 10% of Wilder's laugh out loud and deranged creepy excuses. Only an idiot would think that. Khan could actually kill my whole family and Wilder would still be the biggest clown. You should have a think about what you've just written with that one. Seriously.

Wilder would be KO'd by everyone if he didn't duck them like histories biggest coward. Khan couldn't wait to travel and prove himself. That's the heart and mind of a fighter. He didn't need to be dragged into doing it. He went due to his own courage like it was natural. Wild horses and hundreds of millions couldn't get that joke to travel and fight a world level fighter. They are worlds away from each other in the clown world.

No fighter blames others for their downfall anywhere near to Wilder's level. Do you even know who i'm talking about? It reads like you're clueless about this prized f3cking tit. It's a dark place where Wilder is. And he's taken a large part of your country with him.

Lets see how Wilder performs when he's a shot fighter against a prime one overseas. Lets see if it takes a low blow to bring about the end of the fight like it was with Khan. But considering he ducked everyone like a coward which is worse than quitting, i know it won't take much for that weak idiot to fold.
