    Holding someone around the neck and pushing them down, digging your elbows into the back of their head/neck (which Wlad does all the time) is illegal.

    Mind you, Wlads last few opponents are incapable of using their fists as a weapon, never mind anything else.

    Lennox did the same exact thing. Where was the complaining then? They were taught these tactics by the same exact trainer.

    Povetkin and the person promoting the fight. :lol::rofl

    You don't even understand this. They guy is wanting to bring in 3 testing agencies :rofl:patsch That isn't normal procedure and you know that.

    Any additional testing beyond what is required has to be agreed to. And the Promoter is not the person that dictates that anyway. Too many people in this thread don't even know:

    A. What the issue is

    B. The correct protocol

    They can be tested by 100 different Organizations it just has to be agreed to by the fighters. The WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO, etc. are not going to dictate anything more than basic testing.

    I am all for random testing in EVERY World title fight globally it just has to be agreed to by BOTH fighters anything that is beyond normal procedure. You can't just tell a guy "hey, we decided we want to use 3 different testing agencies" it doesn't work that way.

    I suggest you go and read Thomas Hauser's articles on PED testing in Boxing. You might learn something for once.

    If Wlad gets stripped because he tries to talk his way out of fighting in Russia then I am losing a bet with dinovelvet and won't post for 3 months. This would be the most irrational and dumbest thing Wlad could possibly do, considering he'd be losing out on the highest guaranteed payday of his career.

    Wladimir did not want to be tested by the russians. So Hrunov said that theycan make the testing by the germans, russians and usa so it will be 100% clear that there are no PEDs in the game. I see no reason why Wladimir should not agree to this. One thing is sure! Wladi cant expect that the german agency alone does the testing when the fight takes place in russia.
    We will see.. If this fight does not happen because of this bull**** Wladimir wont have many fans here.

    That's the bottom line. What is the big deal in being tested by 3 agencies instead of 1? No big deal.

    It's not as if Povetkin is saying ONLY USE MINE. He's saying USE ALL 3 to be safe.

    Link? There is no mention of additional testing for the fight later this year. The disagreement stems from who will oversee the standard testing for the fight. Unless you can provide a link to me saying that Povetkin and his team have asked for additional tests to take place before the fight this year then STFU.


    They didn't want to bring in three testing agencies. They were happy for the testing to be overseen by the WADA affiliated RUSADA, AS IS THE STANDARD PROCEDURE for a fight in Russia. It is K2 who said that unless NADA (German national anti-doping agency) then they will walk away from the fight.

    Now, considering you're so keen to talk about what is standard procedure, perhaps you'd like to explain when it has been standard procedure for a fighter to demand that the testing for a fight in Russia is overseen by the German anti-doping agency?

    The suggestion that the preferred agency of each fighter is used, plus one neutral agency is an attempt at a compromise to stop Wlad walking away from the fight. They're not talking about haing three agencies come and extract blood and urine from the fighters, they're talking about having the samples tested by the three agencies.

    Apparently it's you that doesn't understand this.

    Again, who's talking about additional testing? Please provide some evidence for this or stop saying it.

    The correct protocol is for drug testing to be overseen by the WADA approved national anti-doping agency of the country in which the fight will be held. The fight is in Russia, and therefore protocol dictates RUSADA would oversee the testing.

    If this was a case of demanding additional testing then Wlad could tell them to **** off and the fight has to go ahead as they have no right to force that upon him, he wouldn't have to walk away from the fight. However, he's trying to change the fact that RUSADA should oversee testing for a fight in Russia.

    Instead of going along with the standard procedure, Wlad has threatened to walk away from the fight unless his preferred anti-doping agency oversee the testing.

    I've read everything he's written on the subject thanks. I suggest you stop making suggestions to me, Brittard.

    Hey stupid, the fight is in Russia and under a Russian promotion...Wlad has no liberty's after he lost the purse bid..Just like all his former oppoents had no liberty's when they fought him in Germany....He is in no position to demand German testing be the only method of testing...The german agency have diddly squat to do with the situitation.

    Rico Spadafora the small headed moron.

    Do you still not get the situation. Povetkin wants 3 tests.... Wlad has YET to reply. I highly doubt he will. What's wrong with 3 tests instead of the one Wlad usually takes? Unless Wlad is hiding more than just glass?

    I would like to see the reaction of the posters on this forum who can't look at this issue rationally (you know who you are) if K2 would have won the purse bids, and Povetkin said that he refuses to have his samples tested by NADA (national anti-doping agency of Germany) and will only fight if they are handled by the Russian anti-doping agency.

    Exactly, imagine if athletes in other sports refused to compete in other countries unless they had their own drug testers.

    :rofl:patsch

    Shaunster you still don't understand. Normal testing is just an A and B sample before and after the fight on the day of the fight. That is it. Random WADA testing is NOT normal procedure. Period. You as usual are trying to make this a 'Klitschko' issue. I don't give a **** who tests them. There is no need nor should there be 3 organizations involved in testing. I am not going to go in circles with you on here while you Troll when you don't even know what normal protocol is versus what is being proposed.

    I don't think Povetkin or this Promoter character are out to get or 'cheat' Wlad. There will be a resolution there is too much money at stake for their not to be. And if you have read Hauser's articles you wouldn't have posted what you just did :patsch
