    Here is a view of a lawyer on first part of the report:
    http://www.forbes.com/sites/rkatz/2...ate-sponsored-doping-have-merit/#1f63213129c6
    In comments he clearly states if that is taken to court it has zero chance to win and that first part of report is not worth a paper it's written on. But that was enough to ban whole paralympics team (which by the way was not mentioned directly in the first part of the report) but who cares, right?

    I've had a quick look on the second part of the report and it's supporting documentation. I would say it hasn't moved far from the second report but then again it was enough to take bobsleigh championship from Russia and further steps will be done with USADA demanding sanctions and bans.

    VADA is no way an international organization, headquarters are based in US and Russians as well as many other nations do not have any representation there. So how can I trust this organisation with recent American policy, lies and breaches of agreements?

    Returning to that report. Damage had been done and that was the main goal. So was the situation with MH17.

    I am not saying that it is 100% this situation with Povetkin and I wrote that 80% chance Povetkin is an idiot who should be banned and 20% that VADA is going to be exposed, since they have duplicated the doping tests with Swiss laboratory.
    But frankly with all that Russian evil threat hysteria I wouldn't count that out as well.

    again im going to wait until all the facts come out like last time. Making no rush to judgement although on face value this seems more legit than last time

    last time i defended povetkin and found the whole situation ridiculous and wilder ran like the wind, i was proven right.

    When all the facts come out il decide on this, the povetkin apologists you are on about are actually the people who were proven right last time. I admit this on face value looks more damning than the last time but im not going to rush to judgement until we get all the facts

    this.

    best post on this thread, ,again this seems a lot more damning than the original doping case but i don't exactly trust that politcal forces aren't trying to corrupt sport. The USA government are lying to stir up anti russian hysteria, why wouldn't they do something like this in sports?

    you also have to look at how quickly anti russian media outlets eg the gaurdian etc jumped on this povetkin story , a paper that cares very little about boxing, but they can run with the anti russian aspect of this.

    How come no one is reporting that stiverne failed a drugs tests and povetkin said he would still fight him? how come people aren't giving out about stiverne being a hypocrite and ruining an event?

    Yes, Wilder was right on avoiding mandatories for 2 years. Now he can sleep well. He will get another tomato can for one of his parodies of title defenses.

    i just want to see the best fight the best and no one should be allowed hold a belt while fighting only useless fighters

    for that reason alone i don't like wilder at all

    if wilder knocked out a few top fighters and was as entertaining as he always is, id be he's biggest fan, id even say he would be one of my favorite boxers, but right now he is too frustrating and looks like a coward

    No im on the side of clean sports a cheater is a cheater and should be permanently banned I cannot stand Wilder's poor competition especially when he talks crap like with Joshua. However the whole Melodium thing i could kind of understand since he may or may not of taken when illiegal this however shows he was a POS and probably lying about not taking Melodium ban his ass.
