Interview: Dr. Catlin on Performing Enhancement Drugs

[Ryannn]

This is all you need to read.

"DT – Sir, how long after ingestion do the PEDs remain detectable in blood and/or urine?

Dr. C – Steroids can last a day or 40 days depending on which type. Of course the smart ones would take a short acting anabolic steroid, like testosterone. If you take a long acting steroid, you will eventually get caught by the testing agency. There are many kinds and doses of EPO and the test is not very sensitive so I would say that we could detect modest doses for up to three days in urine. "

If you are only testing during training it does not matter.... They aren't going to be on their cycle during testing times anyways.... How hard is it for you idiots to understand. The only way this testing would work is if it were year around.

cool.

go write a letter to nsac and say their testing sucks

Wouldn't do any good anyway. They met awhile back to discuss the testing procedures and voted against upgrading them. Truth is the athletic commissions don't really have any money so even if they wanted to upgrade testing they couldn't due to lack of funds. Also with thier current testing you don't get the results til after the fight. So if someone was actually doping and got caught the damage would already be done. These fools can't even tell the difference between animal piss and human piss. Look what just happened in the UFC a few weeks ago.

[Canelo Phresh]

it isn't up to pac. its up to the commission to improve their testing.

proof positive that *******s are communists. its up to the government not the individual. what the **** man. think for yourself for once.

i thought they didn't upgrade cause they agreed it was "fine" the way it was.

its the meeting in which tygart was present, right?

Really a shame when you think about it. Essentially, it's up to the fighter to protect himself. And not everyone is in a position to afford doing something like that.

yeah the government is the mommy and the daddy til the day you die. what my point is since you cant grasp it is that you hate the individual as compared to the mob. you lack the ability to appreciate intelligence and drive of one man and can only understand and respect what the herd does compared to the individual. theyre are many people who share your hive mentality.

[Ryannn]

as i said before, nothing wrong with floyd asking for the extra tests. nothing wrong with pac refusing it either.

however, its up to the commission to implement better testing if the current testing is crap

The commission has already pooh-pooed the idea, much like it did when the subject of steroid testing was first raised 20 years ago. That's really no surprise. But it started with two fighters paying out of pocket to do it. Then doing it again and again. Then more joining the fray--those who could afford it. It took the commission about five years to get on board. So while we here you that it's up to the commission to implement better testing, the driving force behind them doing so are the clean fighters and articles like this that raise awareness.

[tangalog2200]

fighters only have to abide by the commision rules
