Does Bellator Really Not Drug Test?

[orangecuse]

They don't do strict drug testing, they don't provide fighter insurance like the UFC, they put some embarrassing Dada 5000 like characters as main event over great fights and legends, they pay some guys on the prelims like $500, are weird with title shots at times.

Uh I mean...I can't wait until the honorable Bellator takes over MMA. They are just so respectful of the sport and care about the fighters so much.

And UFC ratings have plummeted.

Make no mistake, Bellator is looking better than they have in previous years. Fuck, i didnt even know they had been arou d this long and now we have a mir v fedor matchup? Color me hard.

Mir v Fedor?

Who cares about two washed up hasbeens fighting each other. Have you actually seen Fedors recent fights? that guy is a joke now.

2010 wants its card back.

actually usada are the "administrator" of the whole program so usada test, not ufc

Your contractor fucks up doing the shit you contracted to them. YOU are liable. They are your arms. They are your servants. Basic principle of law, life and logic.

Don’t play semantics with a lawyer.

but they arent a contractor, they are an administrator. if usada fuck up, they are liable, not the ufc


if you represent a client and the judge fucks up, the client doesnt sue you, they sue the judge

 

[Wariowokecancel]

You guys have a hard on for semantics.

UFC had shittier, i mean, stricter drug testing. Period.

Basement dweller trying to be a smart ass via semantics as to who is the administrator.

I take your money to invest, put in a bank, it collapses, I pay.

Your subcontractor is YOU. I should charge you lot for basic law lessons.

 

[Fishmonger]

I always cry when I go to court as a bar admitted smartass.

Work on your putdowns, you’re not as smart as you think you are, kid.

 

[mime]

so many bellator threads on the first page, i honestly thought i was in worldwide and had to double-check

Are you fucking stupid?

Judges have basically blanket immunity from being sued. That’s not have the law system works.

If a judge ‘fucks up’ you appeal and pray that your appeal will work.

Also a judge is not my contractor/

And lawyers have fucking insurance for a reason because you are the first guy who pays.

Stop being smart ass, you’re digging yourself deeper talking law with a dude with 20 years in the business who would not even try to talk oil filters with a car mechanic.

Law isn’t words. You might think so but there is a reason a good lawyer is expensive.

 

[Wariowokecancel]

Guess why Hunt is suing the UFC and Dana personally. There is a clear basis in law.

Want to discuss? Billable hours or a flat fee?

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Just a "whiz quiz", only the winners, and mainly Main Card fighters.......

 

[TriangleMonkey]

Ive been to plenty of Bellators shows, backstage with the fighters, and never personally seen them test.

 

[Championstuff]

There was pretty much no testing when Rebney ran the show. Coker is slowly but surely legitimizing many different aspects of Bellator.

He’s doing so by having all of his fights at casinos, like how tommy Morrison did so he could still box and have aids at the same time

Add that they have fighters selling tickets to be on a card & ..............

 

[El Fernas]

The comissions that sanction Bellator dont use USADA with them, also not being the same State AC`s as the ones sactioning the UFC, big events like their MSG card might had been tested by a legit state AC, but they might not use USADA, just like the UFC didnt worked with them in the past.

 

[JonesBones]

the joke is on you because I doubt they wanted to "clean" up the sport. it doesn't make any sense from a promoter standpoint, it makes the fights less exciting, in turn they sell less, less people want to watch it and all that. and like dana and lorenzo are such ethical people. what happened is that they saw a golden opportunity to inflate the UFC's price to make a killer sale. and they did it and also signed reebok to help them with that, to make the UFC more "professional". and boom, 4 billion

No, they didnt want to clean up the short. They wanted the APPEARANCE of cleaning up the sport. And from appearances, MMA stars are busted a lot. I am totally talking appearances. A casual sports fan or person sees UFC stars and champs popping left and right. That doesn't fuckin look good. So it did backfire. It was a PR movie that blew up in their face.

And yes, short term thinking to pass it off on some fool.

The investor Warren Buffet talks about spheres of competence. He quotes an IBM guy who said he isnt a genius but he is smart in spots and sticks close to those spots. MMA is outside the sphere of competence of the new owners. You know more than they fuckin do. All that shit looks good on paper but we know it is a con. People act like investors are these fuckin geniuses. Not even close. Buffet would pass on this because he doesn't understand it. Neither do the new owners.

 

[Organic Damage]

They test but they give the fighters the answers beforehand.

 

[BALLERSTATUSMCG]

And it backfired. Just makes the sport look dirty with people popping all the time. It has had the opposite effect it was intended to have. classic UFC short term thinking.

its making the sport clean, which is what it was intended to do

sorry bones popped twice

usada bless

UFC doesnt drug test either

USADA and the state commissions do

Get your terminology game in check fam

hey everyone. its charlie sloth.

Didn’t really answer my question.

My reasoning is that Coker is holding more and more events in actual arenas, less Indian reservations.

Rebney was basically all Indian reservations. Add in the fact that Coker is putting testing stipulations in some contracts, and it’s logcal to think that Coker’s approach requires my testing.

 

[Deleted member 519031]

Obviously not to Bellator, as shown by their crappy ratings event after event.

dont be a fanboy bro. bellator are up coming fast. competition is great for both brands. dont tell me you wont watch the heavy tournie?
