    He's exciting, seems honest and funny, he fights the best without excuses and doesn't mind taking risks.

    He's my favourite Heavyweight now and the one i actively route for. Although I'll be torn between him and Usyk

    1 was for an over the counter supplement and was decided by a tribunal that he didn't knowingly take the substance.

    And the recent one I have no idea about. He's failed one test that was appealed and was cleared to fight and has passed all the VADA tests. But he still failed a test. So I'm waiting for it all to come out. If it does.

    But he's honest in interviews and signs up for VADA himself knowing he can get an 8 year ban for a second offense. I don't think he's taken anything on purpose. Yet.

    Yep. I was just starting to become a fan aswell.

    The tainted supplement excuse is thrown around, but ultimately an athlete and their team is responsible for what goes in their body. The only legit supplement problem was with Yoel Romero.
