I don't really think it has so much do with smart, as with not giving a shit. lol

But testing for dead pot metabolites is a joke anyways. The effects of Marijuana last 4-6 hours, why fault someone when they obviously weren't under the effect of such things during the fight. It's not a PED. So the only concern should be the safety of the fighter.
