    This would be a potential problem from the start with a bulked up guy fighting overseas as a kick boxer who was a natural light heavy, I know this bc they don't test overseas and Spong has fought no.one at legit level as a boxer . Spong would have needed whatever bc he wasn't winning that fight .

    I forget who but I mentioned Spong would not be the same guy you see kick boxing , there's no way it's the same guy who fought Overeem awhile back who built his reputation on steroids going from.205 to 270.

    Chuck him in with Eric Molina or Arreola, or a top 50 opponent

    Maybe they can pull Golota out of a bar on the North West side and get him to go out there.

    Seriously this really sucks. What can they do here? Maybe offer the fight to one of the sparring partners?

    Peds just should be allowed for anybody and then we would not have all that kindergarten action.
    I like usyk but come on he is as much on gear as sponge, they should just fight anyway.

    Can't say I'm shocked or even a tiny bit of surprised, but Usyk really doesn't seem to be allowed to make his HW debut.
    Hope they find a decent replacement, maybe just go the Fury way and just pick a no name with a good looking record.

    I gotta say, I'm genuinely beyond shocked. I mean look at Tyrone, he's got such a natural build. Not suspect in the least.:rolleyes:

    With you there. Not canceling bc I’d like to able to say I saw an Usyk fight regardless but I think we’re probably looking at someone like Joey Dawejko in a best case scenario.

    You do know there are folk on here who would spit the usual nonsense about being innocent until proven guilty and "my wife has this physique from going to the Gym"?
    Having popped dirty I feel for Usyk.

    yeah and that for me wouldnt cut it... spong vs usyk for me personally captured my imagination. So I am truly gutted but I am sure Spong and Usyk also feel like crap right now
