Overeem approves of more drug testing

[Warner2BruceTD]

Fact is there's no steroid that they can test for in urine that won't show up in a blood test. If urine was a better method of testing they would use it for Olympic events instead of blood, and boxers like Floyd wouldn't be campaigning for blood test. So at this point your argument boils down to someone being pissed off that Overeem one-upped the NSAC by giving them a more substantial test. A test that more convincingly proves that hes clean.

Are you a chemist? Because i'm not, and I don't know if this is true any more than you do. All I know, is that according to the NSAC, they believe each can detect different things.

The bottom line is they asked for a urine sample and it took this guy a month to provide one through the proper channels. Even worse, his communication was bad during the entire ordeal. Whether you believe there was intent or not (and to me the intent is obvious), the fact is a 28 day delay or whatever it was is plenty of time for certain PED's to leave the system. This is why they like to test about 6 weeks out before a fight, because everybody knows these guys stop using around a month out at the max because they know they will be tested on fight night.

To me, Overeem is a clown who can not be taken seriously, and the commission has no back bone and credibility issues.

New procedure he's never dealt with - Pissing in a cup should not qualify as a "new procedure". Nothing confusing about that.

Stopped reading here, because you're being a retard.

Wrong.

A doctor testified during the hearing that the blood test would not show certain substances that could be flushed from the system like a urine test would.

That settles it. A doctor. Good call.





































I had a doctor tell me once that I should eat 6-8 meals a day to get my metabolism going. Doctors are sometimes retarded about some things. The IOC blood tests for a reason.
