Dana White talks Olympic-style drug testing for UFC, MMA

On this edition of The Fight Fix (short and sweet this week), Dana White answers the question about when or if the UFC will ever implement Olympic-style drug testing.

NOTE: this interview was taped on August 27th, presumably long before anyone knew for certain Sonnen's urinalysis showed elevated levels of testosterone.

"I mean, really. What else can you do?"

Ummm, a lot, Dana. You really open Pandora’s Box if THAT is your counter argument to stricter testing.

I think it was actually a pretty shitty evasion with a stupid comparison.

Good way to sum up this interview:

“Dana, I’d like your opinion.”

“Not happenin, kiddo.”

He brings up ONE good point,

He wants the UFC treated like other professional sports. He will go as far in drug testing as long as it matches the level of testing in the NFL, NHL, NBA, etc…
