Povetkin tests positive for PEDs. Fight is off.

What the Russians think is ok, the West doesn't.

 

[Seano]

Doesn't matter what anyone thinks. Povetkin agreed to the drug testing they used.

I thought Povetkin could beat Wilder and then pose a challenge for Joshua. But this type of incident at the age 36, means you're pretty much done.

 

[CountOfSoCal]

Welp. Shit.

Dirty cheater, I'm glad his ass got exposed. Inb4 every other elite boxer is on PEDs.

Povetkin took Meldonium when it was legal just a few months ago. The fact that there are still traces in his body doesn't prove anything in itself.

I'm pretty sure i've read reports that Povetkin was tested early April, multiple times which came back negative and another test taken at the end of April which tested positive for Meldonium.

The whole story looks like bullsh@t. I just don't buy it that Povetkin would use meldonium during this hysteria and being randomly tested every week (or even 3 times a week - WADA tests on 4/7, 4/8, 4/11).
I would rather believe a conspiracy theory that it was a setup by Haymon+Wilder's team+ZOG.
P.S. What about probe "B"? And how can the amount be so low (70 Nanograms) just 2 weeks after previous "clean" tests? Is there a possibility of an error? How is it checked?

The guy who didnt cheat is looking for a way out? Rofl.

 

[BamaBoy91]

Lol @ this

 

[burningspear]

Regardless of who's to blame this is a damn shame, I want to see how Wilder looks against a legit opponent.

PEDs come out of your system much quicker than people think.

lmfao, haters.

Wilder should be the one suing. Povetkin cheating ass just cost Wilder a 4 Million payday if the fight never happens and all kinda of out pocket money for training overseas and shit.

 

[PUO3]

Povetkin should have to pay their camp costs. Thats bullshit.
