What troubles UFC president?


The UFC president Dana White supposes that many MMA fighters use marijuana. This person is troubled by this issue. While anti-doping agencies try to clean sports from administration of steroids and other related medicines, the UFC president notes that it is necessary to test fighters for recreational drugs randomly. Dana White affirms: “Forget about steroids!” He states that it is the time to be troubled by usage of marijuana and other recreational drugs by MMA fighters.
It is known that those who are caught administering anabolic steroids and/or other related medications are banned from competitions. Which sanctions are for those that are caught taking recreational drugs? You should know that the punishment is similar.
Don’t you wonder how many fighters test positive for marijuana and/or other related remedies, if random testing for recreational drugs will be conducted in the UFC?
475 fighters have signed contracts with the UFC. It is supposed that if random testing is established, approximately 80% of these fighters will test positive for these drugs.
The United State Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) and the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency (VADA) would be glad to sign a contract with the UFC in order to eliminate doping from MMA. They claim that the UFC should have the same anti-doping program like other sports organizations have. But Dana White doesn’t desire to sign a contract with the USDADA and the VADA. He notes that the State Athletic Commission test fighters for prohibited substances. It is enough in order to clean the UFC from usage of banned drugs, according to the UFC president.
It becomes evident that the UFc president doesn’t desire to clean MMA from doping. Previously he has pronounced some statements for support of testosterone replacement therapy among fighters. He has affirmed that any fighter should take steroids under indications of his doctor, if he has hypogonadism. Athletes must obtain therapeutic use exemptions in order to compete professionally while using several steroids. But it is possible to suggest that therapeutic use exemptions often serve as an excuse for doping. A lot of celebrated fighters have acquired therapeutic use exemptions and apply steroids while fighting. Thus, doping continues prospering in MMA.
Why doesn’t Dana White put efforts to eradicate usage of performance-enhancing drugs and smoking pot from MMA? Think logically! The fight against doping and smoking will influence on business negatively.
