This content is protected Both Jordan Thompson and Richardson Hitchins posted on their Instagram story of themselves being VADA tested during their camp. Important for keeping the sport as safe as possible.
Didn't have the power to pull the fight lol The board eventually made the decision to not sanction the fight. They could have made that decision weeks prior
There’s an easy solution to make sure the board don’t have to pull a fight because of a failed drug test…
Matchroom are good for testing tbf but its badly negated by the fact they ignore and cover up results for their star fighters.
I see Amir Khan persists he didn't take anything despite his failed test... "I requested the testing in the first place" etc. He reckons he got it from drinking someone else's drink. Under strict liability that's his fault; he's not denying the failed test, just denying that it was deliberate. Sadly in most sports, it makes no difference.
The opposite. You can't have someone else's drink (if that actually happened) and use it as an excuse.
