    his statements re usada are factually accurate. one of you is undeniably displaying bias.

    Didn't Marquez offer to do testing against Pacquiao in the 4 th fight anyway? But Pacquiaos' team turned it down.

    Maybe you can direct us to a link where it states USADA was corrupt or even incompetent in testing for the Morales fight.

    Where or how did USADA err???

    My understanding is that Morales tested positive for a PED and USADA made it public.
    Them retesting Morales was by choice of GBP who asked that Morales be retested. USADA did, but by no means did they classify Morales previous positive test as void.

    I dont see any wrongdoing here by USADA.
    The wrong doing is what GBP and the boxing commision did by letting the fight be staged despite a failed drug test.

    I dont believe USADA has jurisdiction to stop a proffesional prize fight from happening even when there's a failed drug test.
    Thats up to the boxing commision of that state to do so I would guess.

    what is wrong to my understanding is that usada has a contract with gbp where usada reports the the result to gbp.

    it will then be up to gbp if they want to release the result or not.

    in the morales case, it got leaked out, gbp then came out to admit that they've had the info for a while and morales had already tested positive 2x.

    We dont care that he tests.

    Floyd could have gotten paid if he just asked nicely without being a dick about it.

    They had a private contract and we only found out about it because Angle Garcia leaked it to force it to go public. Under the private contract they couldn't/wouldn't? release the information to the relevant commission as VADA does. If the commission had the relevant test results they would not have been able to ignore them. As it was, they only had reports of their being failed tests, not the tests. GBP is ONLY using USDA to make sure their fighters are clean when they take the commission tests, nothing more. That is the difference between USDA and VADA and why GBP will never use VADA again. They don't care if the sport is clean. They care about not letting it interfere with revenue. I don't think this is even debatable anymore.
