Couldn't disagree more with this.USADA goes way too far with it. Waking fighters up at 5 in the morning, grabbing Mighty Mouse in a store while he's shopping with his wife, making fighters declare their whereabouts like they're sex offenders... not worth it.
In regular life, we have a balance between privacy and security. With USADA, there's absolutely no balance: they can do what they want, when they want. Holly Holm has like 6 fights under USADA and she's been tested 35 times. Seriously?

Got it. I agree with him there.he's saying that the fighters should have a union negotiating these things. But in a way that doesn't piss off UFC and affect his access.
