Is There VADA Testing for Lomachenko vs Campbell?

[KTFOKING]

Does anyone know if there is VADA testing for this fight? Did anyone ask Hearn about it today in the press conference?

It’s for a WBC title, so id assume yes.

Not the type of testing I'm referring to. That is the WBC VADA program, which is different than having contractual VADA testing.

Bump for those who may have watched the press conference.

Anyone? Where my UK peeps at? Did you guys hear anything about testing during the presser or later interviews?

[KTFOKING]

So watched a few interviews and some of the presser and I didn't hear anything mentioned of VADA.

But I'm sure there will be VADA testing though.........

And there you have it. Legit 9 weeks of testing.

There was VADA testing for Whyte-Rivas. Didn't do much good, UKAD had to catch him.

Sure, never said it wasn't possible to get around testing but this is the first fight Lomachenko will have legit drug testing in. Actual 9 weeks unlike his fight vs Linares which was like 5 or 6 weeks.

Good news is it'll have UKAD testing too.
