NSAC triples allowed marijuana metabolite levels

Shouldn't even test for it at all, but nice to see they are going in that direction I guess.

Yeah you know as an x chronic and now moderate user I just cant see any advantage of smoking a gagger before a fight. Those who have tested positive probably had in their system from a day or days prior so even the effects are gone.

I think it's pretty certain that the stuff doesn't lend itself to combat If a fighter wants to have a toke on off nights in training weeks before a fight or whatever instead of drinking etc, who the hell cares.

No doubt. Apparently lots of ufc guys like their erb. I dont follow the sport but I'm pretty sure they took it right off the list.

I don't like the change, it's a move in the wrong direction, in my opinion. Here's what I see.

We have a problem, my fighter has a hard time making weight. Not a problem, lets add some more weight divisions.

We have a problem, my fighter can make weight but he's so dehydrated he can't last more than a few rounds. Not a problem, lets get rid of the same day weigh-in that way he has time to rehydrate.

We have a problem, my fighter's testosterone levels are low for his age. Not a problem, let's get him on a Testosterone Replacement Therapy program.

We have a problem, my fighter likes his weed and finds it hard to follow the rules, and when he gets caught it costs him money. Not a problem, since marijuana isn't performance enhancing lets triple the test levels. We aren't lifting the ban, we're just fixing things things so we can ignore the tests. Now everybody will be happy, especially those fighters who can't follow the rules.

That's what I see.

It would make sense if weed was actually a performance enhancer. I mean having it on this list makes about as much sense as banning potatoes.
