Which is a better drug tester. USADA or VADA?

sad as hell....now we have fans of drug test companies fans of promoters fans of advisors fans of networks I agree, it is stupid. Personally I do not know too much, if much at all, about either of the drug testing companies, but therein lies the point. I haven't researched them in order to chose a favourite so I can then argue a case in favour of a fighter that I follow. It is not to different from arguing about PPV numbers, revenue percentages, promotional/advisory 'bosses' etc...You wont catch me arguing about 'VADA sucks coz it does this' or 'USADA is best coz does that'...I blame the people who are fans of Floyd (and ONLY Floyd...) as he mentions these types of things and then his fans argue and bicker with other fanbases and treat the matters with utmost importance, in part because Floyd brought it up. But anyway back to the point, it seems there are pros and cons to any drug testing system as we have to assume there is always the chance of developing methods and hush money etc. Plus people who are more fond of certain fighters will more than likely drift towards preferring the testing that they do, which as you say, is pretty sad.

USADA can be bought.

The answer is the same because both are getting tested at the same accredited lab. I believe it is UCLA

VADA Ask Timothy Bradley funny because its the one Arum has them use.....

There are issues with USADA's transparency when they're contracted in to test in boxing. Hard to have faith in them given some of the stuff that's happened. Both are an improvement on commission testing though.

Vada is known to be more stringent So vada gets my vote

I'll go with the one that doesn't reek of corruption. USADA - known for DESTROYING samples (wtf? why?), notifying only the fighter/promoter and NOT the commission of positive results (lol. just lol). Also costs like 5 times more than VADA :lol1: where the fk does that money go? to keep people hush hush?

Vada is número uno.

USADA is dodgy as ****, covered for Lance Armstrong for years and I assume they are very corrupt. VADA has never really caught anyone lol. Which drug tester is better? you need to change the BS in the opening post VADA is not used because its a legit clean company that catches cheaters, in addition to catching Berto... http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/10134718/brandon-rios-failed-drug-test-fight-vs-manny-pacquiao http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/7913481/lamont-peterson-amir-khan-canceled-failed-urine-test

VADA Ask Timothy Bradley
