    Ive got a rematch clause...thats who will win....were ever it happens...the winner will have to travel to the other mans back yard and defend...making multi millions on ppv and fixing the second fight to make a trilogy....I can only look.at boxing on the financial side now...

    Different people process it at different rates, however I'm not an expect on whether him taking this at the end of last year means he will still have some in his bloodstream

    Still sick about reading this news FFS

    On reflection I just cannot see this fight going ahead now and Povetkin must be facing a lengthy ban similar to Sharapova.

    No chance this fight goes ahead.

    Povetkin tested negative for any banned substances on April 7, 8, and 11, before testing positive for meldonium in an April 27 test.

    His defence down the pan.

    This cannot go ahead now - the message is clear if it does simply Boxing cares more about money and condones PED cheats.

    There is no excuse now the results of the previous tests have been made public.
