M-1 pulling a Mayweather. Wants strict drug testing for HW tournament
Fedor's manager Vadim Finkelstein,
"The only thing I said and will say, Fedor - is clean. He trains in the mountains, to improve endurance, and from the eight fighters, they have already caught two for doping - Josh Barnett and Antonio Silva. And surely someone else uses it, while they insist that it is all the same, to have equal strength."
"We have never shied away from a particular battle, I just want for his fighter to be professional opponent, "not a chemist." Today doping can significantly add speed and endurance. We just want all parties to the Grand Prix and potential rivals to play by the rules."
"Terms of the tournament are determined, the grid is painted. Although, if Fedor will be in the semi-finals, I plan to insist on a thorough verification of the opponent on drugs. You know, I experienced a lot of problems when there was a struggle with Josh Barnett, and do not want this situation again. I then had a lot of money to lose on advertising and a big problem with television. I want this time for everyone to know and be aware of the facts that they will test it very seriously."

Barnett has a history, cant blame them
The issue with Flod was there was none for his OSDT demands vs Manny

Difference is Barnett is a known user and it's also been wildly speculated that Overeem is juicing.
Frankly I still can't believe blood testing isn't a normal occurrence in combat sports.
