    Not quite right. IV treatments are prohibited by USADA. If you want to have those you have to give USADA a reason to give you an exemption.

    IV rehydration is widely used in boxing and MMA.



    source?
    Don't remember the source, you can search it if you want.

    UFC knew they had major steroid problems last year when there stars were popping left and right, and the whole TRT thing really blew up in there face.

    So there was pressure to clean it up, so they asked USADA to do a random test to get a idea of just how many fighters were dirty.

    When they got the results, they told USADA they didn't want to do the testing anymore realizing it coud he devastating to the company.

    When Anderson popped is when they agreed to do USADA testing. I personally wouldn't trust USADA, UFC wouldn't do this unless they knew they had complete control over results.

    That's why I'm pretty sure haymons guys only do USADA.
