    Why is VADA now all the sudden being questioned?

    I thought they were the best and caught all cheaters right?? so why all the excuses for Povetkin?

    I remember USADA being slammed for allowing dirty fighters to fight, now posters are asking VADA to allow a dirty fighter to fight?

    Cause a lot of people really wanted to see this fight so they're willing to overlook a seemingly small amount of a PED and have Wilder take the risk. We're animals we want to see someone get their head punched off.

      The thing is, there's some ignorance about how much power the drug testing agencies have. Here we see another case where the Commission is allowing a fight to go on despite a positive result. Before they blamed someone like USADA for allowing it, allowing the fight to happen, and for allowing testing to continue despite the positive. Today though, a blind eye has gone down with VADA.

      Where is Hauser? Anyone see him?

        USADA/VADA etc don't have the power to stop fights going ahead. You've dragged the testing agency into a field they don't operate in, to try make a snide point.

        You know this, yet you posted anyway. This is really why you posted: Larry likes Mayweather, Mayweather is associated with USADA, USADA is questioned by some, Larry doesn't like that, Larry goes on to post about VADA in an attempt to deflect the USADA criticism.

        Playground type of stuff. Anyway, I bolded what you typed. Shouldn't we praising VADA for catching this cheat?

          Well Povetkin fans hate VADA now for obviously reasons but I would like to know why VADA SHOULDN'T BE QUESTIONED when Victor Conte is or was associated with it! VADA is also Independent as if it is no way they can't be corrupt as well?

          They also just caught Francisco Vargas and let him go allowing to clear stuff out of his system so the fight can happen that is not being talked about much because everybody is focused on Povetkin but this Vargas situation looks REALLY BAD!

            The problem isn't VADA, it's posters.

            There are some posters that opined that a positive on a VADA test was indicative of cheating. They didn't ask for more information or questioned VADA protocols in any way when they caught other fighters.

            Now that it is Povetkin there are a number of what I would say are credible, solid posters that have completely switched their opinions regarding VADA testing.

            They are asking for more info, careful investigation and saying that the positive doesn't mean Povetkin was using. This is not right and those posters need to be called out.

              I disagree. His post is very relevant because he's showing the bias regarding the matter. VADA today is in the same identical position that USADA was in once upon a time and got criticized for.

              One point was that why did USADA continue testing after Morales was found positive? Well today, VADA continues to test despite a positive result. And the irony is that it's happened this year with not just ONE fighter, but with TWO separate fighters. And one fight is going to happen regardless.

                  We should, but that hasn't been what we have seen from many posters and that is a huge problem.

                  We've also seen people blaming Wilder for the fight not happening. That is preposterous.

                    Nobody is questioning Vada.... I love that you just make assumptions based on a few trolls on here and then proceed to smear an entire group of fans... Nobody has questioned VADAs integrity......

                    Similar to how Golovkin was made to be involved in this fan boy debacle of may and pac. I saw with my own eyes..... Boxingsceners like larry X smear GGGs fan base as pacs fans. Getting his fan base involved in your ***** arguments. This came from nowhere and has smeared GG's fan base. I literally can't comment on GG's abilities because I would get smeared as some nutty fan boy.. when the only fan boys are May Pac fans... But the funny thing is may pac have retired..... yet their fan boys are still bickering as though its 2009. SMH you lot are f'cking *****ezzz that have ruined the sport with your fan boyisms and your fabricated truths.
