If you believe Ovi couldn't break the record because of legit reasons (like he is too old, the game has past him by, etc.), I am ok with it.
But I have a problem with people when they are being vindictive - saying things like Ovi should not be allowed to play because he is Russian and automatically he is evil by default, Ovi is buddy with Putin therefore I hate him as well, etc. These are just lame excuses.
We need to separate the politics (most of them are one-sided view anyways) from the truly great achivement this athlete is about to accomplish.
