What's the outcome of the Ostarine B sample? Just a ban with the WBC? If he's pissed hot, which other sanctioning bodies will rank him?

You can't trust him to make it to a fight. Ryabinsky overpaying is the only way he'll get a recognizable name.

You can't trust VADA... Povetkin is clean and always was... He'll get fights... He'll probably be exonerated in the end if US courts work at all for Russians.

And he'll get opponents... He's pissed as Hell about being screwed over by the American media and he's going to continue to fight the smear job.

Father Time. He'll probably be 38 or 39 by the time he fights again.

He won't be interested, he has allways done everything naturally, he doesn't need American roids like ostarine, it's actually even illegal in Europe.

In reality, Povetkin probably doesn't give a flip about it all. He's wealthy, and backed by a juggernaut. Povetkin seemed natural prior to the Wlad fight, but has since most likely joined the majority of the sport in taking some form of PED. I don't know why you care so much. Povetkin clearly doesn't.

Povetkin is old. He could fight Ortiz.

I am surprised that Povetkin is rated the No. 2 heavyweight on boxrec, but maybe I shouldn't be because Bellew was briefly rated No. 2 after his win over Haye. Then they moved him back to cruiserweight.

Yeah I noticed that too, why the hell did that happen?!

Probably because it was embarassing to their rating system. Ring magazine did the same thing. Ring chose to keep Bellew rated as a cruiserweight. Both boxrec and Ring had Haye in their top ten. Bellew's win over Haye made it possible for him to be considered a top ten heavyweight which Ring obviously did not believe, so they kept him at cruiserweight and boxrec switched Bellew back to cruiserweight, but I saw that Bellew was rated the No. 2 heavyweight and now Povetkin is.

Briggs doesn't use roids, Stiverne does, maybe Stiverne can fight Arreola, they might shoot roids between rounds indeed.

Yeah, stiverne/arreola 3 is a good call. Briggs is for sure clean? Not even in astma medication.
