        Depends of the intensiveness of the procedure. Hair cannot be copied it is like your dna. Your genetic make-up is in there.

        toxic substances in the blood are quickly deposited into tissues which makes blood tests less accurate than hair samples.

            Hair does.

            If you clicked my link you'd know that toxic substances in the blood are quickly deposited into tissues which makes blood tests less accurate than hair samples.
            Yep, but they've got to finds ways to detect these substances in the hair, they have only just found out how to detect drugs that they have been detectable in urine for years. How is it better than blood/urine if they can't detect the drugs in hair that they can in blood/urine?

              The article (which is even inconclusive) that you gave only implies that DNA testing cannot detect illegal substance then but it can detect it NOW.

                Here is the question again:

                Then answer my question you will still cheat? Answer it explain your answer? Lol this will be good..

                Question: If you are a fighter who takes peds, would you still take Ped's knowing you will got caught with the hair samples you just submitted and the results will come after a few weeks of the fight?

                Still waiting....5,4,3,2,1,0!!! Owned!!! Geez what a ***** down again haha!
                i wouldn't cheat to begin with. are you too dense to understand that blood testing would serve the purpose of catching cheaters after the fight, as you are proposing hair testing for, as well as catching them before the fight up to a certain date. why use more expensive testing that is less flexible? because one fighter says he's afraid of needles? keep talkin that ***** **** with all the !!!!! like you really showed me.:****you:

                  yes, if its to make ONE fight happen.

                  Are you floyd fans more concerned of getting what floyd wants? or wanting to make the fight happen.

                  Option B, hair or saliva samples, can detect PEDS. But "option floyd" and the USADA wants blood.

                  "well hair may detect PEDS, but floyd wants blood. soo lets go with that"

                    Just a thought lol.
                    no doubt...but the reason PEDs are banned in boxing has alot to do with fighter safety. i'm sayin if you're gonna implement a new testing system, it should focus on catching cheaters before the fight and deterring them from using them altogether.

                      why do you assume i'm a floyd fan. i'm talkin about a new testing method for the sport...not to make one fight happen. the suggestion of hair testing was made...and i'm sayin why i think blood testing would be a better way to go.
