    I think we can all agree VADA is the gold standard of testing they are strict and catch people Floyd says he wants a clean sport why not go for the best?

    This in itself is suspect VADA catches people and does CIR checks is it because Floyd gets advantages with USADA he knows he wont get from VADA like one example CIR checks?

    I heard from a very reliable source that USADA is the "gold standard" for testing so there!

    I will quote myself from another thread

    This is precisely why Floyd "Hardwork&Medication" Mayweather always prefers USADA.

    PEDs are part of all sports and I would say about 50% of athletes are on the juice. Floyd would of been given the benefit of the doubt if it wasn't for the 4 failed tests that were covered up by USADA, his public admission of blood doping and the recent illegal use of IV.

    The only way this can be fixed is if all athletic commisions require VADA/WADA testing.

    USADA should have been banned a long time ago, they don't give a full test and charge more than double. They have a history of covering up for PED users. This corrupt agency has ruined the sport and needs to be dismantled.
