i still don't know what to believe. I do find it hard to believe that the Hep reports were made up.
I guess that we will find out when/if he fights on the Oct card

I hate the CSAC more than anyone, but it's hard to believe they would make such a viscous lie about something so serious.
However, I wouldn't put it past them.

I haven't seen the CSAC confirming the rumors at all. The closest I've seen is "rumors from someone close to the situation..." Anyone have any legit quotes from the CSAC on the rumors?

If he were really a Nazi he wouldn't have signed with a Jewish manager, Vadim Finkelstein, but that won't placate some people.
Given the conflicting stories it is perfectly reasonable to speculate what really happened.

Hasnt that tat been covered up?
