Mitrione Denied VADA Testing Only Due To Inconvenience | UFC NEWS


“Roy asked me, I don’t remember what day it was, whatever day it was, it was probably a week and a half something like that ago,” Mitrione said. “I just never, I had a bunch of other things going on. It felt like a little bit of a distraction, I just wasn’t able to.

I have no problem with being tested, people can come and test me whenever they want. It’s a couple weeks out on my training camps, I was so intent on getting my blinders put on, I cut my career off, I canceled my Twitter. I didn’t want distractions on somewhat short notice, cutting a couple weeks out of my camp … I wanted to make sure I didn’t have any issues couldn’t distract me.

Actually it wasn’t that big of a deal, you know, I asked him and its either a yes or no question and that’s all I can do is ask for it and you either take it or you don’t,” said Nelson. “You know, so far I’m 0 for 2.”

  1. Pierre says:

    I agree with all the above picks, except I think Daley will take out Kroscheck. Looking forawrd to seeing Kimbo demolish Mitrione, but sad to see Marcus Davis demoted to the undercard. He’s about as Irish as Jackie Chan, but still a great fighter.
