By Scott Gilfoid: WBC heavyweight champion Deontay “Bronze Bomber” Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs) says he still wants to give Russian Alexander Povetkin (30-1, 22 KOs) a real thrashing despite him having tested positive for a banned drug Meldonium, which has resulted in their fight being postponed.
Wilder says the drug wouldn’t have stopped him from giving the 36-year-old Povetkin a beating in front of his own fans and the president of Russia if the fight had taken place next weekend on May 21 at the Khodnyka Ice Palace in Moscow, Russia.
