UFC KUENDIGT NEUE DOPING POLITIK AN

[Nefercheperur]

Bellator President Scott Coker meinte nun:

“There are so many athletes out there who are clean and not taking drugs. I just hope the journalists and fans don't say, 'Right, this is MMA.' It's not. You're talking about three athletes (Jon Jones, Nick Diaz and Anderson Silva) but there are thousands of athletes that fight in MMA. I'd hate to see that be thrown on everybody. Hopefully that won't happen.

“It can't just be one organization. It has to be everybody together. The only way that can happen is if the athletic commission says, 'Ok, we're all going to do WADA testing.' California, Nevada, New Jersey and everyone else gets together and says, 'Hey, we're going to require WADA testing for all MMA events.' Then it could happen. If it's just one league trying it, it won't work. If we do it and the UFC don't, it won't work. But, if the commission required it, everybody would do it.”

Anmerkung: Hoert sich ja gut an, allerdings ist das schon ein bisschen hypokritisch weil bei Bellator nicht mal bei jedem Event getestet wird. Niemand wuerde Coker aufhalten das er bei Bellator VADA Testing einfuehrt, das Argument das es ueberall sein soll damit es funktioniert, ist imo vorgeschoben.
