Bang on. I’m not going to pretend that Im not extremely interested in the main event, but the actual complete card with all the drug cheats and the location etc leaves me feeling very cold about it.
"While the situation with UKAD is being sorted out, Whyte is free to continue his career. He was never suspended by UKAD or the British Boxing Board of Control. Both Whyte and Rivas passed the drug tests administered by VADA as part of the WBC's Clean Boxing Program." "Whyte's promoter, Eddie Hearn, admits that he's frustrated with the ongoing wait for UKAD's decision." "He is not suspended by the British Boxing Board of Control or UKAD and he has a career," Hearn said to BBC Sport." "He needs to fight. This is his career, his livelihood, his job and what he does. We are still waiting for UKAD to give their official synopsis of the event but he's had his hearing [back in July], he is cleared to fight. It would be ridiculous of him to wait while there is no reason for him to wait." "It's not a game. It's not about chess moves. We went through the correct process. We had a hearing with the National Anti-Doping Panel [in July] and they cleared Dillian Whyte to box. If you have a problem with that show me another decision but make sure it's the right one." "We can't wait, wait, wait. We saw Ryan Martin banned for a fight that took place last November. These processes are taking too long. Whyte had his hearing [in July] and has been cleared. If you have something to say, let's hear it but in the meantime let Dillian continue his career."
God knows, in their own rules and regulations it says after a hearing it will be made public within 30 days or something around that figure.
Guilty as charged. Just lock him up already and put him in the same cell with Aydamn for ultimate punishment.
UKAD, let's stick with VADA, they seem okay... give'em some authority to enforce and we're good to go.
You mean VADA who failed to detect the dodgy substances in Whytes system ? UKADs testing clearly works, its their ability to or willingness to enforce sanctions which is in question.
According to VADa they dont test for such low minuscuke negligible amounts so the threshhold is different for different bodies, obviously as per WADA a fail is a fail qualitatively speaking but funny how thenthreshold is different for all bodies in detecting the required levels So no... VADA would never have failed Whyte for that amount.
So we should embrace a testing agency who employ a less stringent testing program making it easier for lads like Dillian to cheat ?
what is less stringent to you is actually negligible and not a reason for deliberate PEDs use in the eyes of a professional Youd be suprised what trace amounts of anything can end up in your body just by everyday contact with the world and mankind
Ain’t that the truth. Recently attendees at a Dillian Whyte meet & greet all came up testing positive with dianabol. After being scrubbed down like Karen Silkwood at the Kerr McGee plant, they were given the all clear by Eddie.
