    Would AJ even be allowed to fight in Nevada?

    As some of you have heard Jon Jones lost his license to fight in Nevada due to the banned substances they detected in him. So the UFC moved state lines to Cali.



    How would AJ do on such testing in that state?

    I don't follow NSB as much anymore, how do folks feel about PED's here nowadays? They don't actually think AJ doesn't take anything do they?

      Who knows.

      In the UK, the UKAD only have a budget of £4m a year for their whole organisation. AJ/Matchroom could double their budget and still not make much of a dent in their earnings and get away with failed tests.

      Not saying they do that, but nobody can tell me this kinda stuff doesn't go on. A few backhanders to ignore or fake tests. Corruption exists in all industries.

        They only care about it when it’s a fighter that they don’t like

          not to mention UKAD seems to think PED's are okay as long as they aren't on fight night.

              AJ has done advanced VADA testing for some of his title fights - possply all of them, not sure about that.

                UKAD follow WADA rules, as do every European and North American boxing commission, including Massachusetts.

                They all allow use of Oxylofrine, except on the day of the fight.

                  Such a ****** thread.

                  Fighters all over the world take PEDs. Very few are caught. Whether AJ is on PEDs or not is irrelevant. All that matters is whether he can pass the tests. If he can, he can fight anywhere he wants.
