No wonder that unlike the much more expensive USADA, VADA has actually prevented some PED abusers from entering the ring. That is, provided that's the goal.

This is the opposite from cycling, here the athlete is in an adversarial position vs the testing agency.

Commissions should get their thumbs out of their butts, pick a testing protocol and make it mandatory for a certain level of boxing. Then the commission really WOULD be doing its job.

point is if usada is as corruptible as you guys claim there are ways around a commission, I'm just following your conspiracy line of thinking.
why ruin lance but protect the fraud?

Lets be real,,, everything in boxing is corrupt.......
state commissions- still sending out horrible judges, so every year their can be horrible scorecards,,,
Ref's- they are usually ok, but some of them really suck, and can be biased.... but nobody does anything about it
sanctioning bodies-- Do i even need to explain
Promoters-- do i even need to explain
managers- just look at what happened to Tua and his managers, and whats happening to manny right now
fighters-- Nearly all the top guys are doping,,, most dont get caught, but doesnt take a genius to realize that boxing is in an era where you have to use enhancements to keep up with the competition,,,,,, Just look at the names that have been busted, and all the different things guys can use,,,,
Drug testing agencies- When it comes to boxing im pretty sure they are corrupt,, just look at the winky-quillen fight, There is a reason why no one uses WADA,,
USADA and VADA are competitors looking to make a profit,,, busting every client while the other guys sweep it under the rug will only make you lose business,,, If you think USADA and VADA are on the up and up,,, then you have no critical thinking skills,,,,

One agency is willing to sign a no disclosure clause, one isn't. That's one big difference. Nothing corrupt about what USADA is doing, they're going by their contract, they report to their employer. Well, I shouldn't say nothing corrupt, lots of sketchiness all around: Morales Garcia, Quillin Wright, Broner DeMarco/Paulie, no USADA for Peterson Matthysse. But even without this, you have built in conflict of interest

Originally posted by Marvellous1 View PostI'm not going to argue with that. I see that based on recent events, people are riding with VADA. Has USADA in comparison caught absolutely no one? Is there proof that any of the protocols are corrupt and can be bought?
