How important is the UFC to USADA?

For the first time i have actually been to USADAs website and one thing really drew my attention.

USADA has "UFC program" on their top, main menu. Yes, right there on top of the page together with stuff like: About / Testing / Substance / Science / Media / Resources / Services, and then UFC Program.

There is no olympic / paralympic / pan american section, or whatever else USADA is involved or does testing for... The ufc is the only thing featured along the other items there.

Its really wierd as it doesnt even match that category of options available in this menu. Go look for yourselves: https://www.usada.org/

Not to mention the fact that, the ufc program is a fairly new thing they've picked up. AFAIK they have been working with other events such as olympic stuff way longer, and there are no featured sections to click for those.

So the UFC quickly became their main thing just like that? How important is the ufc to them to deserve a special place in their main menu?

Interesting.... They might have that there for a completely different reason and im just going full eddie bravo here, but how does that old saying go? "never bite the hand that feeds you"

there job to kepp brock lenser jon jones Anderson silva out of the game so it really important.
who cares how there website looks since it job is to catch cheaters and they do it just fine.
 
No it isn't lol.

You guys think usada even catches 20 percent of the fighters on PEDs?

Not a chance or popping wouldn't be so damn common. It seems like once every two weeks a fighter pops.

They are cheating because they still get by with it so they take their chances.

it cause there catching the cheaters dumb enough to think they get away with taking peds.
 
Usada will always be around, but they make making atleast 95% more now than they were pre UFC.

Mainly because most major sports leagues dont use Usada. And for good reason, could you imgaine how boring Patriots games would be without Gronk ;)

beer not a baned item.

No they aren't. They are catching a small fraction of the cheaters.

Why do you think they are catching them? The answer is obviously because there are tons of them to catch because they don't care.

6 month to one year ban? Who gives a fuck when you can get by 7 or 8 fights without getting caught.

What do you mean "it's no big deal?"

They catch idiots. Drug testing is basically a waste of time. A minor inconvenience. The drugs will always be ahead of the testing.
