Per Dan Rafael on Twitter BREAKING NEWS: Deontay Wilder has won his civil case against Alexander Povetkin. The jury in U.S. federal court... http://es.pn/2lHwZZh Wilder is likely to receive $4.5 million, Povetkin can appeal. Jury found Povetkin guilty of PED use.
Good. I may grief on Wilder a fair bit for the obvious reasons but he went to Russia, he trained and he went to Russia. They lost alot of money on that cancelled fight. And why people have been defending the Russian on this must be nuts. He obviously had banned substances in his system or none of this would of happened.
Pretty sure that didn't come up in the courtroom and was ruled immaterial. He should receive a lifetime ban now. The WBC ruled in letting him slip by on his meldomium positive test that if it was established in court that he took the substance after the Jan. 1 2016 ban went into effect, that it would consider it a Strike 1 drug fail. That is exactly what the jury ruled -- they heard all the expert testimony and found Povetkin's side to have no credibility (not enough to even debate for an hour). Now he's had Strike 2. And both B samples tested positive. Dude should never be allowed near a boxing ring again. He's a disgrace.
Indeed. Can't see him getting a dime though considering Povetkin will prob never step foot in the US again. Personally I hope he does get the money as with 4m in the back he might finally develop the balls to take on the top guys knowing he's already financially set regardless of the outcome.
He didn't lose anywhere near 4.2M... Why should he be entitled for something he was only set to earn if the fight actually happened? Complete crock of ****. Besides Povetkin was cleared by the WBC the first time, the last positive test can't be disputed... But that has zero to do with Wilder.
Headvetkin is a scumbag of epic proportions. He's a ****en disgrace and I'm glad that he won't ever fight for a title again. He might kill someone one day since he won't be fighting world class ranked fighters. He will be fighting bums fro here on out. To see Duhaupus get ktfo by this clown was appalling. The mother****er used Ostarine too. I hate this mofo. Hate him... ****en Weight class brain.
What about my post is there to dispute? You don't contribute anything other than bunch of epithets followed by incoherent rambling.
