    So why all hate to the poor innocent Povetkin? most of the best HWs of the last 30 years have been in some sort of drugs in their career.

    3 reasons:

    1.Social media did not exist in the 90s like it does today.
    2.What guys are you talking about that got caught in the 90s, all the ones I know about got caught after the year 2000?
    3.Nobody went out of their way to become overnight scientist and SJW to defend them like YOU do for Povetkin.

    He was caught dirty multiple times in less than a year. Let it go and be a man. I don't understand why it's a factor anymore? People formed lynch mobs about Mayweathers "saline" IV BUT, you want passes for Povetkin based on what?

    He's not a good fighter.
    He's not popular.
    He does not generate money outside of Russia, even though the internet alt-right swear by him, they won't go to his scraps.
    What is it bout Povetkin that anyone should care about?

    Give us a list of drug cheats who have failed two tests in less than a year's time in all of that span.

    It's because he's 100 percent BLATANT about it. Look at Pudge Povetkin before Klitschko beat him like the red-headed stepchild that he is, and look after. Then we have, beyond the obvious eyeball evidence, scientific PROOF of two failed tests.

    It's not just that he cheats, not just that he's blatant about it, not just that he has apologists like yourself lining up to help him by holding it while he gives his urine sample (while making a career of your spam attacks on Wilder -- the aggrieved, innocent party in this) ... but he and his team are COMPLETE AND TOTAL INCOMPETENTS at it. They're the Keystone Kops of doping. It's a freaking comedy how bad they are and how easily caught.

    You CLAIM that "most of the best HWs of the last 30 years" have "been in some sort of drugs" in their careers -- do you mean PEDs, or does someone smoking marijuana count? And can you supply a complete list of who has been PROVEN to have been using PEDs (along with a list of every other top 15 contender in the last 30 years who NEVER were proven to have done so, to back up your claim that most of them have).

    So while you theorize, suppose and wish the majority of heavyweights have been cheats, there's nothing but your opinion to back it up for most of them. But YOUR BOY has been caught TWICE.

    Game over. Povetkin is a disgrace to boxing, to Russia and even to drug cheats who at least do it with enough sophistication to make it a challenge for the drug testers.

    Yes they were, but Povetkin should have been up to date with the ban list from the WADA and gotten better and more careful with taking PED's with today's tougher drug protocols. If Povetkin was competing in the 90's he wouldnt have gotten caught. There was no WADA or USADA to catch him, no VADA either :beer-toast1:

    Steroids weren't even banned in boxing until the mid-90's. Why the hell wouldn't guys have been using?

    Because fans on a message board 20 years later would object and retcon them as cheaters? GTFOH.

    Steroids were illegal in the mid 90s, they were banned. The tests weren't as strict.

    WWE still has a stricter testing procedure.

    I just say to myself that everybody might be on something. Might not be right, but it helps me sleep easy. Innocent until proven guilty, as well.

    I'd be willing to bet money fighters like Holyfield, Jones Jr and Ibeabuchi had a way more potent and hardcore 'supplement regimen' than Povetkin.

    Anyone who claims otherwise should be put down like a rabid dog.

    That's not drugs. Just your run of the mill ESB Lomachenko supporter after finding out they are multiple inches below the the listed average size of micropenis.
