Danny Jacobs still not enrolled to Vada?

[Jubei]

GGG vs Jacobs is getting closer, the fight is going down in 8 weeks, GGG has been enrolled to Vada Testing since 2015 and Danny Jacobs is still not enrolled.

I tried contacting Vada and they usually reply on Twitter, but when being asked about Danny Jacobs they just totally ignore the matter and do not reply at all. Jacobs Team and Loeffler also remain totally silent about the topic.

Jacobs mentioned Vada Testing in an interview but only for the GGG side, that they required GGG to participate in Vada Testing as a requirement to sign the fight. Loeffler only mentioned Vada briefly when asked about it, that Vada Testing was not "a problem!?" during negotiations.

When you listen to the interview from Jacobs manager Keith Connolly he said there were a lot of requests/demands from Team Jacobs and quite a few clauses that GGG had to agree to and sign off to to make the fight happen:



To me it seemed like Jacobs only signed for the fight if GGG does Vada Testing and Jacobs himself does not have to do VADA at all or only enroll in the last couple weeks prior to the fight, when its basically too late to do proper testing.

Have you heard anything different? Is Danny Jacobs already being tested? Is Vada testing effective when you only test a few weeks prior to a fight?

I seriously doubt that Danny Jacobs is such a cash-cow to enable him to have influence on the established policies of the World Boxing Council that have had significant consequences in the sport in the careers of notable characters : Pedvetkin, Stiverne, Browne etc. Golovkin on the other hand is the HBO Hype-job that the WBC and the network would want to protect so I see no reason for su****ion.

Man, we are in sync... look at the post I just made in the other thread:

People, what can I say, that was Jacobs before his "magical" physical transformation... if you know what I mean. Don't compare that skinny guy to the MW beast that he's now:

He looking like phreaking Anthony Joshua now...

Something is fishy. I was thinking about the same thing...

Edit: Looks like the situation is being discussed in other forums aswell... Jacobs still hasn't done any VADA testing they say.

Are you serious? What the ****

Some people say he might have a medical certificate to use TRT (roids) because he's a cancer survivor.

OMG sad...Golovkin beating up CANCER survivors!

To be fair the VADA website doesn't state that GGG is under VADA testing at the moment either. They normally announce when each fighter starts the testing for a fight.

Saying that, yeah, I find kinda strange the physical transformation that Jacobs had... he used to be a skinny MW and now he's very bulky but you never know... I'll leave it like that.

Didn't help his chin any. (Refer to the Mora fight.)

Pretty sure both fighters have to do the same testing. If one is doing VADA, so is the other.

Or if they agree on no testing, ect.

Jacobs can take all the drugs he wants which by the way he is, but he can't change his dna. GGG is a freak of nature. Nature > drugs. And steroids can't change your chin either. GGG must have been laughing at the demands. Just shows jacobs has very little confidence in himself.
