    Povetkin popped dirty. Only bottom feeding losers blame that on Wilder.

    He basically ran away from Povetkin fight the first second he got a chance and Povetkin was “caught” for some micro residuals of meldonium that isn’t even proved to be PED and what was within tolerable amount under WADA guidelines.

    No, and in case you e forgotten the fight you'll se it again soon.

    Thing is he rebooked Ortiz but with Povetkin he fled across the globe and has never since mentioned his name.

    Credit to him for fighting Ortiz, that's the level of opponent a world champion should face, but saying he didn't duck Povetkin is rubbish.

    The WBC never made Povetkin mandatory again after he failed a second test against Stiverne. He was given two opportunities to face Wilder by the WBC and he failed both times by popping dirty for peds.

    Ortiz passed testing the second time which is why he got the fight?

    Not strictly a duck but made clear had no intention of fighting him.

    Finkel “Look, (Wilder) is a baby winning the title. It was his first title fight, they'll be a time for unification, they'll be a time for all those things“.

    Coming up for 5 years later and still waiting for a first attempt to unify!!!

    Finkel said to the Tuscaloosa News. “It's not the right thing yet. Give him a couple of fights, maybe bring something back to Alabama.

    How is that making it clear he had "no intention". ?

    Its not often you see somebody unify in their first title defense.
