Originally posted by SoggyLungs View PostUSADA was formed in the U.S. in 2000 seperate from WADA (world anti-doping agency which was formed in 1999). WADA was formed in Switzerland, their headquarters for WADA is now in Montreal, Canada, and the vice president is Australian...and USADA is well, all-American. USADA did not sign the WADA code (essentially an international set of rules and regulations created by WADA for conducting anti-doping procedures) until 2004. USADA recieves U.S. federal grant money whereas WADA recieves it's money from the IOC (International Olympic Committee) and from different governments around the world. WADA does the testing for the olympic games (i.e. Beijing olympics and now for the London 2012 olympics) while USADA (a national anti-doping organization) generally does not do testing in the Olympic games. So as you can see, when arum says he wants a neutral/olympic organization (probably meaning an international organization NOT national) to do the testing then it's probably WADA (world anti-doping agency, which is led by the International Olympic Committee).
Good ****...

Annie Skinner our Media relations manager (who I copied on the email) will send you something by Monday mid-morning our time, if that works with you. In the meantime, you can see the basics www.usada.org .
Thanks and let me know if that is a problem.

"The nurse can't find the vein"
"Floyd will not fight someone like a Shane Mosley who can beat him"
"The only way the fight happens is if Floyd signs with Don King"
"We agree to full random drug testing as long as the needles used come from another testing organization and Ariza supervises and conducts the test on Manny every time, and is allowed to inject Manny in the butt on special occasions in private.
Trust me. That's the only way the fight ever gets made this time."
