This content is protected Only UKAD testing. Absolutely disgusting considering this is the biggest fight Boxxer have put on this year. I presume there was no additional testing for the first fight either. No wonder people on here seem to think all Matchroom fighters are on PEDs when it seems like they are doing more testing than Boxxer and Queensberry combined. Hopefully Ben Shalom can clarify the situation.
They want Eubank juiced to cash in on a trilogy. The fix is in, who is the ref? Who are the judges? Cher ching.
I think it's because UKAD hardly test. Dave Allen said that UKAD haven't tested him for his fight yet. I'm not knowledgable about this but I believe in most scenarios UKAD only test after the fight and maybe once on fight week. That's why there is VADA and WADA (Drug Free Sport) to do more stringent, random testing during the training camps. Not a good look that this fight has no additional testing. I don't think Khan vs Brook had any additional testing either.
Presumably neither fighter requested VADA. its also not a title fight of any significant description as far as I’m aware. It’s a domestic fight- there is nothing wrong with relying on UKAD in this situation.
I'm baffled as to why a service exists but yet there's a need to have additional testing from another company at all The initial service should be all that's required and if there is any flaws, fix them
Well considering all the promoters know the limitations of UKAD, they should be paying for additional testing in the meantime. These are top level fights. I am interested to hear the response of the Boxxer and Queensberry defence league regarding this. I remember when people were giving Hearn stick on here for having no VADA testing for Cordina vs Rakhimov when there was extra testing from Drug Free Sport! I will be finding these posts and quoting them here soon.
Have fun finding these "pots" And thus trying to split an already segregated forum even more Does Boxxer even have a "defence league?" And you say "the British Forum" has the agenda Anyway why don't British promotions pay to get UKAD up to scratch then? Which should stop the need to sub
This is only a basic non title British fight and don't see what all the fuss is about. There is no Box Office elements to this fight and hopefully the public agree and ignore.
Are you actually going to give up hours or your spare time to trawl through thousands and thousands of posts to find something to support or challenge your view? Seriously, how on earth do you get the time for that? Between my 9-5 and family commitments their isn't a great deal of spare time other than the occasional skim read and odd post, I don't know where people get so much spare time to spend on this kind of thing
I think UKAD have an annual budget of about 9 million to do the testing for every sport. No wonder boxers barely get tested.
