    We Be Crooks are a joke... Stiverne failed a drug test and hasn't done anything since losing to Wilder other than get knocked on his ass by featherfisted Rossy and win a razor thin decision. Anyone else find it strange that fight hasn't surfaced yet?

    No, that was a untelevised fight and Stiverne was knocked down in the 1 round in that fight as well.

    There still should be fan footage of the full fight... In this day in age there's always someone recording with a Go-pro or their phone. Not suggesting anything, but it's just weird that it hasn't surfaced yet.

    That's about where he belongs at this point. Though I would put him at 6 in the top 10 with Fury out and PEDvetkin about to be suspended. He's done more recently than a lot of similar boxers in the bottom half of the top 10 (probably 10 boxers could fit in that space depending on point of view).

    And here I am still wishing for the Wilder-Harold Sconiers fight to materialize somewhere...

    ...yes, I know it'll never happen.

    It was on YouTube few years back. I don't understand how in today's day and age a fight can't be found like that.

    Povetkin Alexander (31-1, 22 KOs) after the raid Doping lost his place in the rankings heavyweight WBC and IBF can try to fight for the IBO belt federation. That the road to the title of the International Boxing Organization faces the Russian opening, confirmed in an interview with the agency Tass representative of the federation.

    - Povetkin may be a contender for the IBO belt. No fights waged under the banner of the IBO, so we can not punish him. At the moment it is on the third position of our ranking - Tass quoted its source.

    Title IBO heavyweight for years belonged to Vladimir Klitschko, who in November 2015 he lost it to Tyson Fury, currently resting from boxing.

    Before a court in New York takes the process between the camps of world champion WBC heavyweight Deontay Wilder (37-0, 36 KOs) and former title challenger Alexander Povetkin (31-1, 22 KOs). The case relates to the consequences of appeal planned for May fight boxers after it turned out that the body challenger detected traces of the banned since January 2016 fumarate.

    Americans demand from teams rival financial compensation the amount of $ 5,000,000 for the cancellation of a duel. Russians in a separate lawsuit accusing opponents of defamation and other losses demanding compensation in the amount of 34.5 million.

    As part of the camp, Powietkina presented the analysis of the Dutch expert, which prove that Russian boxer after fumarate reached yet in 2015 when there was it on the list of doping. Team Wilder sued to witness two specialists from the USA, who in turn presented an expert standing in contradiction to the opinion of the Dutchman.

    It is worth recalling that earlier federation WBC refrained from punishing Powietkina, explaining that the current state of knowledge on the metabolism fumarate does not allow the unequivocal opinion that the Russian a prohibited enjoyed in 2016.
