    Out of everybody involved or people close the only person to say it wasnt real, after admitting it was genuine and all down to AJ, was Eddie Hearn.

    Literally everybody else with a bit of inside knowledge, even his Dad, said it was real.

    Not getting into a debate about it as it's boring but these are facts.

    Show you an example lol how about 255 boxers who make up the top 15 in each division with the WBC they are all subject to random 24/7 VADA testing anywhere in the World.

    Anthony Joshua is not tested 24/7 when he’s out of the country or not signed up to a fight with VADA testing also Jarrell Miller refused to be a part of the WBC VADA testing program.

    Because Vada have more stringent rules regarding peds out of competition. I’m all for this mate, i’m not against it. WADA, UKAD and all the other drug testing organisations need to change their rules and bring them into line with how vada do it. However, for now, unless it’s stipulated in a fight contract vada have absolutely no authority.

    Whyteleafe has to deserve some credit here for leading by example with voluntary VADA, when trying to get a fight with big iosh.

    Similar to when mayweather took the lead when trying to get a fight with pac, at the time it was also “an open secret” within boxing about pacs supposed substance usage.

    I'm not sure what the big deal is here. As a World Champion, AJ is signed up to the WBC Clean Boxing Program, and can be tested year round by VADA or UKAD. He uses VADA for his fights.

    Their testing is no different from UKAD, the only difference is that UKAD and Vada have a different definition of in and out of competition. UKAD consider fight night to be in-competition, VADA consider training camp as in-competition.

    He's signed up to UKAD. He might have signed up to VADA for certain fights.
    What tests does he have when conditioning in Oregon or Dubai?

    He pays for UKAD and WADA in competition testing but he's also subject to 24/7 worldwide testing out of competition through UKAD.

    The link for worldwide testing has no mention of Joshua.
    Last year he said that he signed up for every day testing 3 months before a fight. This doesn't seem to coincide with his overseas conditioning camps.

    UKAD literally shat the Tyson Fury legal battle because of fears they would go bankrupt! LMFAO! So if anyone genuinely believes they have the coffers to send testers abroad, paying flights and accommodation and other associated expenditures, you are well and truly off your rocker. When Big AJ goes abroad you better bet your arse he's away from the testers.
