Controversy over Dillian Whyte's failed drug test highlights inconsistencies in boxing
THE controversy surrounding Dillian Whyte’s failed Ukad (UK Anti-Doping) drug test a few days prior to his clash with Oscar Rivas just got more intriguing with the revelation that he passed all of his Vada (Voluntary Anti-Doping Association) tests both in the run-up to and after the same fight.
This revelation will no doubt form the basis of Whyte’s defence against the Ukad test result as he fights now not for a world title but to save his career.
What we know is that the Ukad test was conducted at random — ie without Whyte or his team being given advance notice.
