"But I’ve seen a lot of fighters who’ve looked great against inferior opposition"

Somebody is in for a rude awakening ...and it aint Barrera!!

Post-Ward Barrera looks like he's been juicing to me. Went from looking like Luis Ortiz' younger brother to looking like a WWE Wrestler.

Barrera wants to do VADA testing.

Bivol is the one who is dragging his feet and stalling.

I would just not take the fight if he doesn't accept VADA. Try to fight Beterbiev with testing - fk it.

I don't trust any of these Russians with testing - I actually think Khabib in the UFC is juicing also.

He's fighting for the WBA title, all top 15 fighters from the start of 2018 have to enroll for VADA testing or be stripped of their ranking or titles as per the WBA's fair boxing program. All fighters and promoters have been informed of this on the 6th of April 2017.

So it doesn't matter if he agreed or not to this, he has to do it and should have technically already enrolled or risk being stripped.

Yeah like the WBA doesn't lie...

WBA announced that reducing the titles are their top priority and then sanction secondary titles at Heavyweight and Welterweight

My question is will SK step up and fight Bivol in his next fight or ***** out !!

Well if the WBA don't enforce their own rules it would be pretty simple for any opponent to take the fighter not enrolled to court to get them stripped.

All the details of the fair boxing program is on their website, it's pretty black and white rather than the WBA saying something and doing another it's much harder to prove intentions rather than clear legislation written down.

The rules have been laid down, it's now up to the fighters to follow them. The WBA are simply copying what the WBC have already done.

Last year the WBC released a list of boxers that had failed to enrol in January, I expect the WBA to do the same this month for those that have failed to enroll.

Last I looked Bivol wasn't enrolled in VADA???

Mark my words, Krusher consolidates ALL LHW belts. He beats Bieterbiev easier than people think. Bivol beats Bererra and Krusher beats Bivol. Then Loma and Krusher fight and Loma makes him quit in the sixth. LOL! Lets see which moron calls me out on this and thinks I'm serious. lol!
