UFC fighters voice displeasure over USADA whereabouts app that 'doesn't work'

Tomorrow is an important day for UFC fighters under the new USADA drug testing program. By Wednesday, everyone on the roster has to submit a form to update USADA on their whereabouts at all times due to the new out-of-competition testing rules. Fighters can be subject to random drug tests on any given day 24/7/365 (or 366 next year). Inaccurate info on a whereabouts form -- in other words, you aren't where you say you are -- would result in a failure. Three failures would be the equivalent of a failed drug test, which means a suspension.

This is obviously a very important part of the new policy for everyone involved, and USADA's Twitter account made the last reminder to UFC athletes to get their filings in today.
