    If they didn't test for the drug in previous tests then the record would show that. The fact is that the man got busted and can't show why the drugs are there legitimately. If he and his team can do that then he is off the hook. If they can't then he has to pay the price for being stupid and getting caught.

    It doesn't matter, Povetkin will forever be labeled a druggie and he'll be avoided like the plague from here on out. Still it's strange the he tests clean 3 times and then less than 2 weeks later he has tiny trace amounts in his system from a substance with a very long half life. He'd had to have taken an extremely small amount which wouldn't have benefitted him in anyway. At the end of the day money talks and boxing is a shady, dishonest business so nothing should come as a surprise.

    I used to be critical of how Wilder was brought along but no more. I feel he'll still get his big fight. maybe not against Povetkin, but late this year or early next year he'll be ppv

    Are you dumb? It was the WBC who ruled against this fight happening, not Wilder. How the fk is he going to "sue" wilder? Because he didn't push for the fight happen against a cheat?

    testing negative repeatedly and then positive may throw a wrench in that.

    Not really, all it does is remove the timeframe and the argument will fall to did you dope? To which the answer will be, yes.

    WBC wants to postpone the fight until a proper investigation can be done, no conclusion yet at all, that's why it is only posponed, not cancelled. Wilder is extremely afraid and has threatened the WBC that if they make him fight Povetkin he will give up the title, so let Wilder give up the title and allow someone who deserves the title to fight for it....................

    He can test negative, because the quanity is so f***** low. Not because he clean then, and ****ed later.
    And Povetkin sample was with fu**** 0.07 microgram, which is below allowed, so i dont see the whole f****** problem.
    Its a Wilder ticket to escape the as****** he would get from Sasha....
