Oh I don't know. I don't have an agenda. I'm not here to disparage the boxers.
of course you dont have an agenda... the boxers being questioned here is not on your list.
was there any extra drug testing for this fight??? vada? usada? anything???!!

SO the USADA that is used Worldwide, that has taken down the likes of Lance Armstrong and Marion Jones is corrupt. But VADA that is used by boxing that is fronted by Victor Conte is the legit one. That's sounds logical

they test less and they cost a hell of a lot more.
floyd used them for... *cough* his own reasons. they gave him a TUE for dehydration when he claims to cut no weight. just know that dehydration even when it's considered moderate is BEST treated by administering fluids and electrolytes orally. IE they will literally give you a gatorade in a hospital unless you're severely dehydrated.
look, i have no beef with people suspecting manny pacquiao of PED use. found a lot of power at WW after 5 weigth classes and in his 30's and 40's. worked with alex ariza, a known drug cheat and a shady dude. but just don't act like you woulnd't go f#cking nuts if manny pacquiao got caught with a TUE for a bunch of IV fluids administered in the exact same manner used to mask drug use when he CLAIMED TO CUT NO WEIGHT! you'd be going f#Cking nuts, flowmos, and you should. just go nuts at floyd, becaus he was probably on drugs when he fought manny pacquiao. my guess is that both used testosterone. makes no sense at all for atheletes in 2019 to fight 10 years longer than athletes in 1950.
What happened? Now it seems it’s only VADA?
USADA got TUE shamed with the Floyd travesty, so BALCO Vic VADA took over with the newest sham a reinvention of His BALCO days.
Only in the dumbed down sport of boxing could he make such a comeback.
From all we heard and read about USADA they were nothing more than an assistance to American drug cheats.
Pretty much. What better way to convince the world you aren't cheating then by hiring a corrupt testing agency to "test" you while claiming you want to clean up boxing? An ace up the sleeve.
What happened? Now it seems it’s only VADA?
It's VADA because USADA is corrupt and lost their credibility. Their urine testing is substandard and they rarely catch anyone.
Here is a quote from an article by Thomas Hauser..
A simple comparison will suffice. As of Aug. 1, 2015, VADA had conducted drug testing for 18 professional fights. Three of the fighters tested by VADA (Andre Berto, former IBF-WBA 140-pound champion Lamont Peterson, and former 135-pound WBA titleholder Brandon Rios) tested positive for a banned substance.
Contrast that with USADA. Annie Skinner says that Mayweather-Berto will be the 46th fight for which USADA has conducted drug testing. In an Aug. 14, email she acknowledges, “At this time, the only professional boxer under USADA’s program who has been found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation is Erik Morales.”
One can speculate that, had Halestorm Sports not broken the Morales story, USADA might not have “found” that Morales committed an anti-doping violation either.
It's a long article but here is a link.

Tim Bradley explained why he doesn’t fk with USada in 2013 “did you know USada allows up to 4% use of an illegal substance” Bradley told fight hype. Video is on YouTube and it was also USada that somehow lost the quillin samples for his winky Wright fight which there are a ton of quotes from wright about how shady they are. Can any testing protocol be cheated? Sure. But USada deals with the promoters first and VADA with the commissions from what I understand.
When Floyd started random testing in all his fights VADA did not exist
VADA was created as cheaper alternative for people that don't have Floyd Mayweather money
