    Forget VADA.

    They are irrelevant here now.They play no part.

    They don’t get to say ‘woah hang on a minute,we know Dillian is a good boy and so these tests are rubbish’.

    UKAD are the body to who the UK answers to.He may be banned in the UK but not elsewhere.

    This. It wouldn’t shock me if Eddie works his magic and manages to get the public and the authorities to look past Whyte’s accident. I think Eddie missed his calling as a fixer, since he seems more talented at covering up scandals than he does promoting boxing. Eddie even has a striking resemblance to Howard Strickling, who was a master at doing damage control for celebrities.

    Why did they ask for VADA reports at the hearing?

    I'm a fan of Whyte but this was ridiculous, honestly reading that account from Rivas' team probably made me more pissed then this drug ****. They could have been loaded, they did visually look tiny compared to what Rivas was wearing. It's no wonder that jab/double jab worked so well and froze Rivas in his tracks all night when Whyte's never been known for his jab in the past.

    I'm not sure VADA would even take payment tbh. Otherwise any doper could pay them for testing for their own research. Never mind the huge conflict of interest, shades of Fluid paying 150K to USADA. Fyi, random joe public cannot use the accredited lab testing for personal use anyways.

    What are you referring to? Wilder has a pattern of coming in underweight against his top opponents, which suggests he trains hardest against them and struggles to put on weight. That's not uncommon for someone with his body type, as 6-7, 215 is fairly thin for a professional athlete. If he were roiding, you'd expect him to add mass while maintaining his athleticism.

    He has come in under 220 on three occasions since 2012: Stiverne I (219), Ortiz (214) and Fury (212).

    Whyte, by contrast, dropped 13 pounds in *two months* in 2017. He fought Tann at 260 and Helenius at 247. That is fairly suspect.

    Wilder's weight peaked against Molina at 229, and he fought Szpilka at 228 six months later. That's when he started to drop weight again, but it was gradual. Szpilka at 228, Arreola at 226 six months later, Washington at 222 seven months later, Stiverne II at 220 nine months later, Ortiz at 214 four months later, Fury at 212 nine months later. He gained 11 pounds in five months prior to Brazeale, so if you want to flag that then fine. But it's generally much easier to gain than lose, albeit Wilder has had trouble in the past.

    Well done, Ortiz did indeed get it, and Nery is now getting big fights too...and Top Rank with Beltran

    Then again Ortiz and Nery (PBC) and Beltran (Top Rank) look like anomalies, not the trend like Matchroom...who JUST TODAY announced they had signed another man with a chequered drug past, appear to have.

    Hearn accused a country of having a drug problem, when it seems the bigger problem is in his house, with the people he signs. If you want to clean up the sport, start with yourself Edward. Stop rewarding cheats. Cut them off.

    So do you think that is a good way to do things? Just coz a fighter hasn’t yet died doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be one death away from being crippled on its knees. This is the worst time to get caught coz the sport has had two deaths within a couple days of each other

    How do you know what’s biologically possible in terms of trap size, Rivas has big traps but he is no mr. Olympia. Anyway whilst you could be correct one passed the test and one failed, we know one is a cheat, we can only guess the other isn’t.
