    The Commissions do not do strict drug testing, and it's not random. NSAC has a new strict random drug testing program though, but they have only used it for Bradley vs. Marquez. And that was because Bob Arum basically forced them to create the program.

    Rios was caught through VADA's testing, not a Commission's test.

          Source?

          It's said to be only slightly more stimulating than a cup of coffee it's probably banned for safety reasons, as there have been a number of deaths attributed to it.

            With something like that which not exactly a cutting edge the amounts matter. Did he just have a smidgen, did he have a normal dose or did he have enough in his system to pump up a small horse.

            Once again PED aren't a magic wand, to be effective they need to be used with very hard work to push your body beyond it's limits, using it as a shortcut or even just using it to get a bump for a fight (which is probably the case here) is not really going to do much for you. Maybe in a fight where guys are almost even it could maybe then it could give a slight edge but it would not change a fight where the levels are clearly different.


            I doubt much happens to Rios though other than future scrutiny considering the fight was in China and he has his dough. His career is pretty much on the rocks anyway.

                Rios, who passed four of the VADA-administered tests leading up to his match against Pacquiao, failed the urine test afterward. He tested positive for the banned substance methylexanamine, a stimulant that is commonly known as dimenthylamylamine or DMAA and has been used in dietary supplements.

                "Efforts to reach Alex Ariza, Rios' fitness coach, were unsuccessful."

                tsk tsk ariza


                Ariza is gonna get fired twice in a row and now that his reputation is ruined,its gonna be difficult for him to find boxers that`s gonna hire him.

                  Floyd asked for both urine and blood testing but Pac-juice wanted cut off dates so he could cheat.

                    Cheat!

                    Dimethylamylamine is a drug made synthetically in a laboratory. It was originally used as a nasal decongestant. Today, dimethylamylamine is sold as a dietary supplement used for attention deficit-hyperactive disorder (ADHD), weight loss, improving athletic performance, and body building.

                    Some products claim that dimethylamylamine naturally comes from rose geranium oil. Supplements that contain this ingredient sometimes list rose geranium, geranium oil, or geranium stems on the label. However, laboratory analysis shows that this drug probably does not come from this natural source. It is thought that these manufacturers have artificially added this drug to the supplement rather than obtaining it from a natural source. Dimethylamylamine is considered a drug in Canada is not permitted in dietary supplements or natural health products.

                    Many athletes take dimethylamylamine to improve performance. However, dimethylamylamine was added to the World Anti-Doping Agency’s prohibited substances list for 2010. Therefore, competitive athletes should avoid taking it.
                    Ban this cheater!!!

                      Pac-juice wasn`t tested by Vada who have special testing.
