Fans are excited about Dillon Danis vs. Logan Paul, and Paul’s controversial VADA drug test was dismissed as meaningless by UFC veteran Chel Sonnen.
Fans are excited about the most anticipated boxing showdown of the year, but surprisingly, it’s not a showdown between experienced boxers. Dillon Danis and Logan Paul were set to compete against each other, and their heated arguments and heated trash talk caught the attention of fans. To quell speculation and maintain credibility leading up to the event, Logan Paul chose to undergo a drug test through VADA. However, this decision drew criticism from UFC veteran Chel Sonnen, who said he was unnecessary and pointless.
Chael Sonnen, UFC Veteran, Lambasted Logan Paul for VADA Testing ahead of Dillon Danis Bout
October 14th will feature a anticipated matchup between KSI and Tommy Fury. However, the excitement surrounding Danis and Paul’s fight elevated it to a level comparable to major boxing events. Jake Paul spoke with The MMA Hour about his decision to take a VADA test to clear his name and silence his critics. This move attracts the attention of fans and increases expectations for the showdown.
Chael Sonnen is skeptical of Paul’s decision. According to Sonnen, VADA has no real credibility as a company, and Paul’s attempts to get his VADA tested will not be officially recognized. According to Sonnen, “You have to be particularly stupid to join VADA“
The UFC veteran said, “Once you sign this, the agency has the power, but they don’t have the power, they don’t have the money, they don’t have the credibility.” He is not saying this to condemn VADA. For example, Dr. Margaret Goodman is an amazing woman and she started VADA and there was nothing wrong with it. But the athletes who chose Vada did. If VADA had her own PR department, none of this would have happened. If passing these tests will give you something
He added USADA will give you an ugly jacket and take a photo for Instagram. You get nothing from VADA. So if you want the honor of being a clean athlete. They’re not giving it to you. You will only receive bad news. ”

Sonnen wonders why Paul, a wealthy and highly trusted athlete, would choose to become involved with what he considers an organization as untrustworthy as VADA. Sonnen said given that VADA is a voluntary anti-doping agency that athletes want to join, he believes USADA is a more prudent choice for an athlete of Paul’s stature, a reputable and well-respected company. I emphasize that it would be fine.
