Comments Thread For: Povetkin KOs Late Sub Duhaupas After Failing Another PED Test

[New England]

How on earth was he allowed to go ahead and fight after failing another test? Regardless of whether someone wanted to step in last minute - it shouldn't have been sanctioned.

money talks. nobody gets paid if they don't fight. everybody loses a lot of money.

this sport needs global, altruistic oversight, and it's just impossible for any entity to provide that at the moment.

It desperately does, and it is incredibly sad and frustrating that it just won't happen.

Boxing really is the wild west, and we are so, so far away from any form of alignment, standardization or proper governance.

I bet the waiver Duhaupas signed has more holes than swiss cheese. A hastily thrown together cluster****.

Wild west is better than a single organisation which can be just as ****ed up and backwards.

Vote with your wallets. Don't buy cards featuring Povetkin, Luis Ortiz, Lucas Browne, Tarver etc etc. Don't let these ****ers be profitable for the sanctioning bodies.
