VADA testing for GGG announced

[Zaroku]

This is the second fight in a row where he's started testing with less than a month to go even though he's announced the fight over six weeks ago. Ward and Barrera started testing the day after they announced the fight. Testing is pointless now.

Enough time to be clean for GGG, proves nothing by not testing sooner!

The ones crying are the Floyd fans who act like he cleaned up the sport as he was getting back room deals from USADA to hide tests and get exemptions he should never get..

Ya but no one Should care what Floyd stans think anyway. Most of them aren't real boxing fans and have basically become the forums most annoying fan base.

They don't care about any other fighters so they constantly make threads about how amazing al Haymon and PBC are, and try to keep bringing Floyd up, because no one cares about him anymore.

The rest of us real boxong fans have moved on a long time ago.

Did GGG have an excuse for the 3 weeks of testing in his last fight? Was it a paperwork hold up?

No, nobody asked him AFAIK, the boxing media would have been all over it if it was almost any other fighter.

Only thing I found was this.

I have a comment on some criticism from you and others regarding the VADA testing," Sanchez told me. "First, understand that we, teams Golovkin and Lemieux, were under no obligation to test. There is a substantial cost for tests, but Triple G requested that and understood the costs. I want to point out, fighters get criticized for not taking it, and now we are being criticized for only giving it one month. If a fighter is dirty, it will only take one sample to prove it, they take blood randomly. Why is it there can't be at least an 'attaboy!' for agreeing to take it?

For a team that that says one test sample is enough to prove a fighter is clean, is it really that surprising that GGG is only testing for one month again?

[Larry the boss]

Is there any videos of GGG actually being tested?

[MisterPullman]

100% natty. This is what real men look like. Dem asian genes

[SplitSecond]

Still no word on drug testing Roman Gonzalez WBC title bout

Have you any evidence that the testing for Ward/Barrera began the day after the fight was announced?

The VADA tweet doesn't say that and it seems highly unlikely to me.

Second fight in a row where GGG gets tested for less than a month. VADA should be ashamed for allowing their brand to be used for this type of farce testing and then proclaiming #cleansport. You can have the best protocol in the world, but allowing GGG decide when testing starts (especially this late) makes it all moot.

There was no VADA testing at all for Wilder's fight with Szpilka. Didn't notice you crying about that.
