Why MVDP is Linked to the Doctor of 96% of Dopers

Mathieu Van der Poel is undoubtedly the Number 1 favorite to win Paris Roubaix 2024 after winning Tour de Flanders 2024. But mvdp couldn't be there for the hard crash of Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel, Primoz Roglic and Jay Vine at Itzulia 2024, so the topic of the day is his interesting relationship with Dr Luigi Cecchini, one of the doctors with the most doped clients in cycling history. Why do Mathieu Van der Poel and Luigi Cecchini get along so well?

[@cyclinghighlights]

Tomorrow we will analyze the very serious crash of Vingegaard, Evenepoel, Roglic or Vine among others, stay tuned!

[@aristaeus2514]

So because a doctor takes residence in a cycling hotspot, because thats where a lot of cyclist live/train, the hotspot suddenly becomes tainted and the reason for them to go there is the doctor? Not only is it a good spot to go if you work with cyclists, it also is a beautifull place on earth to live and enjoy cycling yourself. Use your brain a bit please, this channel is only instigating slander and not out to find truth at all. Truth: Luigi Cecchini has been under investigation many times and never charged with any crime. None of the dopeurs that later went public has ever mentioned Luigi Cecchini in relation to doping.

[@aristaeus2514]

So after being persecuted and investigated all through his career, after riders have spilled their beans on all the doping doctors but yet none say anything bad about Luigi Cecchini. After all that, you just know more about this than all the legal teams and riders... What if this man is just legit and pasionate and just as much a victim of the doping scandals? What if he was too trusting with other doctors, thinking they are just like him? Only cheaters would have suspected all the other cheaters, an honest person can easily be blind to his surroundings. Keep making up things while slandering people, one of these days you'll slip up and find yourself in court for it ;)

[@cyclinghighlights]

Aristaeus2514 I think you’re really close to Don Luigi because its the first day I saw you here. Do you watch the video by yourself? I have the same conclusions than you. Check it again dude. If Tugboat claims about a lot of doping doctors but not about Don Luigi is for something dude, I believe that!

[@christianfibiger3146]

Hmm it looks suspicious, I give you that but at the same time, it is a bit vague. I miss some hard core data that proves mvdp has and is doping. That being said I think the police should investigate after this video. Tap their phones etc whatever is needed within the law to get some strong solid evidence. Maybe also some to follow them, where they go.

Don't you think Cecchini is one of the most important figures in cycling on the last 35 years? Why?

[@dagmarvandusschoten9167]

I see no proof whatsoever so with our current state of knowledge, this is slander. You might be right, but you provide no proof as you only declare guilty by association. Maybe you have linked up with some suspicious person yourself in the past and thereby we now have to declare you a criminal? No proof means not guilty and association with non-convicted people means, in the end, nothing. So, at the moment this qualifies as pure slander and you should be ashamed of yourself (you won't be).

[@cyclinghighlights]

That I declare who is guilty of what. As I have repeated numerous times in the video, Cecchini is not considered by any of his clients as a doping doctor, indeed, they even defend him. The clients were doped, but by other doctors, Cecchini however is more of a psychologist according to them. It is you who draws these absurd conclusions about our video. Why do I show it? As I indicate in the video, I had been told about MvdP and Cecchini, and here I simply show why they are connected.

[@dagmarvandusschoten9167]

@@cyclinghighlightsWell, when you look at my reply I do the same as what you did with your video. I did't say that you said MVDP is doped, did I? Had you said that MVDP is doped you would have a legal problem, but your video is way to clever for that. It's all implication and suggestion. Looking at the reactions it seems to work. Looking at your reaction to my reply, where I only accuse you of slander without being explicit, I suspect that this is the intention of your work; making people suspicious about the somewhat extraordinary performances of MVDP, or maybe you also want to do the same with WVA, or Pocgie or Vinnie?

[@cyclinghighlights]

False, dude. You say I'm slandering someone, which I'm not. You don't say I'm commenting on MVDP being doped, you say I'm defaming him and I'd like you to tell me WHERE I say that, because it doesn't happen at any point. I do not make any insinuation or suggestion, I expose what these people expose by themselves in their social networks or those of their teams, from there you can draw your own conclusions. You yourself speak of somewhat extraordinary performances of MVDP, that is, out of the ordinary. Therefore, it is normal for people to react as they see fit. But obviously, we are not responsible for the opinions of others, if you have something against what they say, tell them, not us.
