UFC president: “Forget about steroids!”

Dana White, the UFC president, thinks that numerous MMA fighters administer marijuana. He is troubled by this issue. While anti-doping agencies put efforts to eliminate application of anabolic steroids and other related medicines, the UFC president affirms that it is needed to test fighters for recreational drugs randomly. Dana White claims: “Forget about steroids!” He claims 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 applying steroids and/or other performance-enhancing drugs are sentenced to suspensions from competitions. Which sanctions are for those that are caught using recreational drugs? You should know that the punishment is similar.
Don’t you wonder how many athletes test positive for marijuana and/or other related substances, if random testing for recreational drugs will be conducted in the UFC?
475 fighters have signed contracts with the UFC. It is suggested that if random testing is implemented, circa 80% of these athletes will be caught using these drugs.
The United State Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) and the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency (VADA) would be happy to sign a contract with the UFC in order to clean it from doping. They claim that the UFC should have the same anti-doping policy like other sports organizations have. But the UFC president doesn’t desire to sign a contract with the USDADA and the VADA. He notes that the State Athletic Commission subjects fighters for drug testing. It is enough in order to clean the UFC from application of forbidden products, according to Dana White.
It becomes evident that the UFc president doesn’t wish to clean MMA from doping. Previously he has pronounced several affirmations for support of testosterone replacement therapy among fighters. He has claimed that any fighter should take anabolic steroids under instructions of his doctor, if he has hypogonadism. Sportspersons must get therapeutic use exemptions in order to compete professionally while using several steroids. But it is possible to suppose that therapeutic use exemptions frequently serve as an excuse for doping. A lot of successful 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.
