Considering the b sample is taken the same day, what were we expecting here?
How about they mentally test the dorks who like to test these guys? They have to watch the fighters penis. Who wants that job? not this guy........
From my understanding they test two sample to make sure one wasn't contaminated. It's irreverent that it was taken on the same day...

From what I understand, this is how it works.

USADA shows up to random test and they draw blood. That blood is put into two vials. One is the A sample, the other is the B sample.

Both samples are taken to an accredited lab.

The A sample is tested. The B sample is frozen.

If the A sample comes up negative, it is retested several times to ensure the results are 100% accurate. This can take several weeks.

Results are released to the UFC and the athletic commission.

Fighter then has the option to have the B sample tested by the same lab, or a different accredited lab. B sample doesnt take as long because it's only proving the results match the A sample test. It doesn't have to tested, retested multiple times.

irreverent? It's not that or irrelevant. I've already explained it. It's about the possibility of Human Error.

You guys have, obviously, never worked in a lab setting. This testing isn't just pissing in a cup and putting a stick in and waiting for it to change colors. The B sample is to make sure there wasn't human error causing a false positive. Jesus Christ, how fucking hard is it to understand so much of the shit that has been discussed over the last 24 hours?

Did a couple of you dumb-asses actually group Burr with Callen? Da fuck? o_O
so 1 stick for all those banned substances?

What about the c-sample? Are the testers illiterate or something? C'mon USADA, there's a whole alphabet left!!

So why does it take 2 to 3 week for the first test, and the second is done in under 24hrs, why can't we get faster testing so if someone pops there is a fair chance to change things up
It's a bit easier when you know what substance you are testing for. There is a long list of substances to test for and different tests for many of them.

Keep taking blood till we get a negative test! I don't care if it drains Jon dry!

I normally hate this, but I was bored and time to get a few back :)

So now I can't complain about it anymore.
