    How would it be financial reasons when it will be Wlads biggest payday???? Wlad is ducking him because he does not have control. That means Wlad is scared to fight Povetkin without have a ref that will let him cheat. Get out of here trying to defend Wlad. This duck by Wlad will be remember as one of the biggest ducks in history.

    Exactly. By refusing Russian, German and neutral testing he sets precedence for other fighters to claim to be clean but worried there is something shady with another countries testing.

    You are aware its just you and dinovelvet circle jerking each other and that's about it when it comes to people realizing anything.

    Any person with half a brain will see how this gets resolved first before jumping to any conclusions like ******ed haters.

    What's that last sentence supposed to mean? Wlad is obviously trying to imply something here, but I can't see what he is refering to.

    Anyway, this whole affair is hugely disappointing. Wlad should be man enough to fight abroad from time to time, apart from a few occasions in USA and one in Switzerland he has been fighting on home ground his whole career.

    So, lets say Wlad or Povetkin has a sample that fails one of the testing agencies but passes the 2 others. Do you honestly think that just because it passed the two others that everything would be OK? And that the one org that had the failed sample would just shrug their shoulders and say they messed up and take legal responsibility and have their organization be run through the mud as inaccurate or incompetent? :huh

    Yeah right. It would cause a mess. There is ZERO need for 3 agencies. One agency is fine. If they can't agree on Russia use the USA or France or some other neutral country and be done with it.

    Wlad agreed to be tested by multiple agencies. It is Povetkin who refuses to take the test.

    Wladimir Klitschko may pull out of fighting Alexander Potevkin over drug testing, the Ukrainian's manager has warned.

    The WBO, IBF and IBO, WBA 'super' champion was due to face the WBA's 'regular' champion in Moscow on October 5 - but the camp are insisting Germany's National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) handle any drugs testing.

    Povetkin, meanwhile, wants to use a Russian agency - and Klitschko's manager Bernd Boente has confirmed that the disagreement may result in the bout being called off altogether.

    He said: "There are still huge gaps in the contracts, not only in terms of the drugs testing.

    "Better safe than sorry. I've already seen too much in this business."

    Dude, you're right that it's better to use ONE Neutral testing agency. I 100% agree with you on this...

    But it's highly unlikely to happen, because one side is insisting on Russian testing, and the other insisting on German.

    Using 3 agencies, (Whilst being highly inefficient) is the next best solution.

    But I disagree with your argument for why it would be a farce.

    Hypothetically speaking, Wlad and Povetkin test positive. Povetkin with the German Agency, and Wlad with the Russian one.

    That's where having a third testing agency would help.

    Also, if only one fighter tests positive with one agency, they can easily relay their results, and the tests to the other agencies, and explain how they came to the conclusion of a positive test.

    In short, if you say somebody is positive, you can PROVE that they're taking PEDs.

    If you're lying, well then you will get caught!

    Why isn't anyone bringing up the possibility of Sasha testing positive under German testing? Why is this only about Wlad?

    Has it been revealed what the arbitration process would look like if the results from one agency came back positive and the other two negative? I've not heard of those details personally so I can't be sure of how significant the other agencies' involvement would be in the event of conflicting test results.

    Wlad is the favorite so, probability-wise, assuming most of us here are right in expecting a fairly easy victory, the possibility of corrupt test results coming out after the fight are more significant for Wlad. Germany has also hosted many more significant fights and has a proven track-record, so no one seems to be concerned with German testing. Major fights in Russia are a rare event.

    The obvious answer, though, is a question: which country do you trust more in general, Russia or Germany? The concern with the Russian results overshadow concern with the German results.

    Anyway, I'll propose a different solution than most: I don't see why three doping agencies is necessary. **** Germany and Russia, go with a neutral country.

    These people really just need to make this fight. Maybe a neutral ground with the world doping agency would be appropriate? It just seems both parties don´t want to fight a even fight.

    If this fight does not happen it will ruin this division. If we care to, we will have to watch a bunch more meaningless matches, And I´m sick and tired of it.
