    The fact he admitted his body has changed so much is basically implying yes I am on roids but shush I'm cleans. All down to vitamins yeah lmao.

    So...Wilder wouldn't say his body has changed? He's added 22lbs since his debut...

    Not a beanpole like Wilder so he's obviously on the roids. Notice how the people who accuse Povetkin of roid use the loudest are big Wilder supporters? Wonder why?!

    Wilder looks more roided than Povetkin.

    In a recent interview, Wilder accused Povetkin of using steroids to enhance his body and achieve some of his recent crushing knockouts. Povetkin feels that a lot of fighters in America are always pointing fingers with PED accusations.

    "On a regular basis I am undergoing testing. Nothing has ever been detected. The difference now is that I live a little healthier. I changed my diet. I enjoy taking more vitamins, amino acids. This talk about steroids is a typical American ploy. They like to shock people, that's their business. I am always ready to be tested and prove that I am clean," Povetkin said.

    Yes and yes. But American fighters need to shut the fu*k up accusing fighters from other countries of being on PEDs all the time given how rampant PED abuse is in their own neck of the woods.

    What american fighter besides floyd who had a very reasonable reason of assuming that Pac was on a PED, and Wlad have accused fighters from other countries? I didnt realize it was done regularly.

    Off the top of my head. Ridd*ck Bowe accused Golota of being on roids. Steve Cunningham accused Wlod of being on them too. Floyd obviously accused Pacquiao of being on PEDs. Wilder flat out accused Povetkin of juicing. I'm sure there's a few more but my brain is switched to sleep mode as I'm off to bed very soon.

    So only American fighters accuse fighters from other countries of using PEDs?

    There's so much wrong with your post you seem to live in a reality all to yourself.
