Why aren't they stating the banned substince in the article?


This is what i was thinking.. really hope its not for all this fuss
this might be situation since he was a last minute replacement/cherry (no GGG hate)

I hope this is true. Source? Where'd you hear this?

well it certainly isn't performance enhancing. Source? Is this true?




Atleast WMJ has been in big fights and has been active - Korobov hasn't. Hard to say who the better match-up for Jermall is, but there is definitely more questions with Korobov, which makes it a more intriguing fight.

Although no specifics on the adverse finding was announced, ESPN's Steve Kim reported that Monroe tested positive for testosterone in a urine exam done on November 3.

It sounds so cryptic.

Far better fight, hope this happens.

Bring on Vanes Martirosyan.

Korobov is a fighter who could have accomplished more.

Instead, for some reason, he disappears after a loss to Andy Lee in which he was boxing very well before getting KTFO. I don't recall hearing about him being injured.

He took a year off, came back, and then took another year off. Like, wtf?


I would rather see him fight Jermall, but at this point, I have no idea how much he has regressed in ability.

Top Rank did a terrible job bringing him along then stopped doing anything for him post Lee then dropped him altogether. He was without a promoter for a couple years and i'm still not sure if he even has one.
