News [updated] Statement from Novitzky and the combat sports commission of western Australia

[Dirty Frank]

His manager admitted to using the IV haha.... "no evidence" because you turned a blind eye to it and it's not on paper like the drug tests. You can't fake a drug test as easily because the labs are independent and produce the reports. You can see how nervous they make Dana. Hiding IV use is easy.

<{chips}>

 

[Dirty Frank]

so why did dan hooker / bokamoto expose USADA then? Why does a commission come out with a nothing statement about WADA? no one's even talking about that, people are easily misled. this also just opens up more questions. does WADA have similar rules? like come on man. you saying that, means jack shit.

All your "contribution" to this thread and the putative pursuit of truth... has been... JACK SHIT

 

[Dirty Frank]

doesn't change the fact that hooker and bokamoto exposed loopholes that abe lincoln has to do to make 155. go fuck yourself harder noob

 

[Quietus]

That's a non-statement, it doesn't mean what you think it means. Saying someone "didn't use an IV to cheat" is not the same as saying someone "didn't use an IV at all", and prior to this week nobody thought anyone was allowed to be using them, suddenly we learned as of 2019 if you are able to get a UFC doctor to okay it you can rehydrate with one, which opens the doors for selective cheating if the UFC allows favored fighters to use IVs.

Nowhere in any of those statements does it refute that an IV was used, but simply that it was used within some arbitrarily alotted dosage so not technically "cheating", yet prior to this week everyone would've thought IV usage was grounds for suspension and making the fight a NC. Even fighters themselves seem surprised about this, so clearly this wasn't something everyone knew, its a backdoor loophole they snuck into the rules to allow selective cheating.

No evidence, but Ali Abdouche did inadvertently admit that they did use IV, though he said it was within legal limits - before deleting his post

If Islam didn't use an IV, why didn't he definitively say that? Instead, he and his team has been careful to say that he didn't "cheat", not that he didn't use an IV.

The UFC higher-ups took a couple of days to formulate and coordinate a response, which turned out to be deciding that IV use was now legal in many ways, much to the surprise of UFC fighters, who had been told exactly the opposite for years.

The UFC sent Novitsky scrambling to backdate USADA's policies posted online, then sent Okamoto what they wanted him to post on Twitter. It was "oh look what I found" in the USADA handbook of policies for the UFC. Funny how the teams of all 600+ UFC fighters coincidentally skipped that page of the handbook for years.

It's very clear to me Johnny that you have an agenda to run and you don't give a fuck about the facts but I'll try to reason with you. Here. Islam has had the same stance since the beginning. No IV use and he has said it in interviews.

It's funny to me that "rules that have always been public, but I never knew because I never read them" = "loopholes"

Maybe what was "exposed" was your ignorance?

Looks like Kadyrov made a phone call!

or one of the sheiks from abu dhabi

Hooker has been very outspoken on Twitter but didn't even bother to make an official compliant to the commission... Okay.

Hooker dudnt want to be a snutch by making an offucial complaint

People who don't privately tell the proper authorities of his claims, but instead out it as publicly as they can on Twitter are definitely not snitches..

i accept your concession, noob

Think Hooker drunk tweets

 

[NoSmilez]

USADA follows WADA. WADA is the entity that makes the rules worldwide. USADA is in agreement to follow them and enforce the rules set by WADA. USADA uses WADA's prohibited list. I think some posters are confused.

I bet you were the classroom's snitch

Bro, I love anonymously ratting on my competition, tbf.

Don't be sloppy, losers. I will use every tool.

But he used a massive social media platform to publicly spread the supposed transgression?

I should’ve included “/s”

The quality of evidence seems to be lacking. So much so that no one in the 'dumb cunt' 'USADA doing fuck all' camp could even be arsed to file a complaint. Embarrassing for a lot of the drama queens on here..

This is every situation ever where someone talks a lot of shit, but knows they have absolutely no way to back it up. The fact that there isn't even an official complaint says everything.

Doesn't Dan Hooker have proof?

Of course he doesnt. Notice how he hasn't said a word since his drunk Twitter tirade?
