          PAC is lucky he is not on that juice, good move to get rid of ariza he would have failed this drug test. This only proves that PAC was a cheat

            The 'catch' has little meaning though because Brandon Rios will walk-away free from penalties. At best, he may face a monetary fine from the Chinese Commission. But Rios will be free to take his next fight as soon as he wants, because VADA does not penalize athletes like NSAC or USADA does. VADA is good, but this is one of the 'loopholes' that exist when they are used.

            If it were NSAC or USADA that caught Rios, he would be facing a suspension of some sort at the very least.

              Exactly, couldn't agree more. They're the only ones who actually get positive test results.

                NSAC has gotten a bunch of positive drug test results this year alone. Remember Mickey Bey and J'Leon Love? Catching drug cheats has lots of variables and it depends on a variety of factors. And NSAC's drug tests where they caught guys in boxing, aren't even as strict as VADA, and yet they had some positives. Just goes to show.

                  USADA has as much power as VADA, which is none

                    Take it as a percentage of fighters failed over fighters tested
