Ortiz at number 1 is good.
Briggs? Come on....
And Povetkin with the continental belt at 7?
Shows how much they think of that belt then, must be plastic and pleather.
The only guys on that list I don't see him beating is AJ and maybe Ortiz..

But he didn't, he even schooled Wada several times.

Briggs has got a (*) meaning status under review

I just don't get how he has a spot though. Him and Guillermo.. The WBA really love their pensioners

You have anything I can read regarding his ostarine test? Not trying to be argumentative, just want to look into it.

They say they went to another drug testing agency right after, and he tested negative. Sounds like what Salido did after the Robert Guerrero fight. I think everyone is on something, but I also think VADA/WBC has been a bit suspicious in how they're treating Povetkin considering what happened with Stiverne failing too.

Ortiz has looked horrendous lately. I think Povetkin eases through him now; although, Wilder might get to him first. Ortiz is at that point in his life where he's already becoming old. It's the right time for any contender/belt holder to get a win over him. I no longer think Ortiz really beats anyone.

Looks like a joke, but it's not :brick:

#2 didn't fight for 2 years, and when got some Brazilian punching bag...

#3 Grandpa

#4 Grandpa, no fights since 2014

#6 Last fight vs not punch bag happened 2 years ago, when he was KOed cold by cruiser

I think that any boxer with self respect should ask to be removed from this disgrace :stop:

An official independent Wada lab even and on top of that, the origional lab in America is suspended by Wada.
