    I see, so he's basically got no excuse then? How long will he be banned for?

    September 2015 the drug was added to the banned substance list and all athletes were advised it would take effect in January 2016.

    No, 1 microgram is an allowed amount for tests taken after March 1st. Before that, it was 15, I believe.

    That's what it seems like possibly. But he had until last September to clean out.

    Why are these loons fighting so hard to protect Povetkin?

    How many of Floyds A samples came up positive and had their B samples conveniently destroyed and untested.

    Only a paper champion with no heart would take the lastest flight back to Alabama over a fraction of a microgram of anything. Wilder is one cowardly individual. Never mind that he was going to make millions for the fight, no business sense either.

    I'm defending Povektin despite my opinion on the matter being that Wilder stops Povektin late. Why is that? Maybe some people are rational and don't abide by some dumb agenda. Or maybe you think Wilder has nothing to lose with this fight not happening?

    This entire situation is a mess. Hopefully VADA, WADA and WBC come out with some clarity on the situation.

    It's simple:

    He heard about Juanma drinking urine and thought it would enhance his performance.

    But instead of drinking his own urine, he drank the urine of another Russian athlete who was on meldonine so it showed up in his **** test.
