No announcement yet.
Could THIS Be the Reason Why Shawn Porter Hasn't Signed the Contract to Fight Brook?

The most VADA has done in terms of a UK athlete is testing Amir Khan while he was in the Philippines training for the rematch with Peterson.

It's a moot point in regards to the discussion. It doesn't change the fact that UK fighters are randomly tested year round.
Unfortunately, American fighters are not.

When Bob Arum came out and said, Top Rank wants WADA instead of USADA, was that correct? That was incorrect and Arum had no idea what he was talking about. This is no different.

UKAD does the random drug testing year-round for UK athletes. Not VADA. This is a fact! UKAD would never work with VADA. USADA would never work with VADA either. UKAD has been around way before VADA even existed and has way more experience. You guys are comical.

Do you have Twatter? Maybe you could take Hearn to task on there.

The issue is worldwide....ok so do American fighters have a system like this in place where their fighters are tested randomly year round? Yes or no?
