    " Banning of meldonium was a political provocation"

    This is perhaps the most boxing-nerdy sentence fragment I have ever read in my life.

    RJJ, Toney, Holyfield, Mosley, etc. "Legends" that all took banned substances when they were still banned and are regarded as "greats". Lol.

    Is there a report function for endless stupidity?

    They talk about Americans popping pills like candy but it was the Russians all along - no wonder they lost the cold war, the whole population are meldonium addicts.

    Is there some independent scholar review or something of that nature for meldonium? It shouldn't be too difficult to assess whether it qualifies as doping or not. Otherwise whatever we say is pure BS. Although from what I've read they are likening its effects to that of blood doping. I don't know how much truth there is into it. When so many healthy young athletes found to be using a certain heart medication, it's rather difficult to assume it is for any reason but enhancing performance.

    How is this political? It's not banned outright, it's only banned when it's used in professional sports. If it doesn't affect performance as you claim why would he risk it all for a useless drug?
