Boxing commission mulls testing for PEDs

I agree/// lmao... she was never subjected to olympic style testing seeing as though USADA wasnt created until the 2000 winter olympics after she had already competed in the summer olympics//you sir FAIL! this is very good for boxing... haha you failed yourself lol USADA is just a name, Marion Jones was still subjected to blood test 2000 Sydney and after 2000, which she passed with flying colours. :hijacked:

Point is, i dont know how to post pictures i guess, but the point is still clear. SHUT THE **** UP YOU ****ING PUSSY... PACQUIAO is going to retire when he hears this news... He's dirtier than 10 cent whore off the corner of his filipino streets.http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_kp2FrgCoRfs/SBb_r4UgWBI/AAAAAAAACf4/tMtDdA2OUIk/s400/pacquiao-lapu-lapu.jpg You are a ****ing racist fool. Take you're discriminatory attitude somewhere else. Stick to the subject and don't concentrate on the filipinos. THe filipinos are all for the the drug testing as long as it is mandated by the commission. I hope this testing is done throughtout the nation, otherwise, these will just go somewhere else to fight that does not require extensive drug testing. Then again, you are a ****ing racist, asshole.

WOW.....this is good news..........Floyds motivations for blood testing may not have been "pure" but look at this...we may get some good results........... I agree/// Its over!!! Expect a lot of top boxers to "Retire" very soon.. lmao... http://www.topnews.in/sports/files/Marion-Jones3.jpg Marion Jones approves of olympic style testing she was never subjected to olympic style testing seeing as though USADA wasnt created until the 2000 winter olympics after she had already competed in the summer olympics//you sir FAIL! No one should have anything to say except, this is good for boxing...Period. this is very good for boxing...

hahaha we all know whats going to happen here. NYSAC researchers finds what they have always found, random urine testing is more accurate and affective compared to blood. Will reiterate the continuance of it's testing procedure. lol nothing to see here :hijacked:

because it can easily be beaten??? if it can easily be beaten, then how come only the accused pacquiao is the only one that is making headline news? nobody else besides pacquiao that these HGH/PED is working? why isnt there more pacquiaos out there if the current test can be beaten? while pacquiao is being accused, others are being caught, go figure...

like Mayweater .... the guy that paid 600,00 dollars for a two pound advantage over a bloated featherweight in JMM? wat does that have to do with testing....NOTHING :moon:

Finally, something MANDATORY, better than GBP is settling for. To those that might worry if better tests will be more expensive, there should be a provision that the promoters will shoulder the costs, ensuring it will always be done at least with blockbuster fights. I am a Pacquiao fan, and this is good news for me. :boxing:

lmao that wasnt racist, im a manny fan, just ****in around... All I said was he is dirtier than a 10 cent whore off of a filipino street corner... thats just as dirty as off the corner in france, the united states, mexico, china, phillipines... theyre all dirty 10 cent whores... dumbass Bullshit. No one forced you into bringing Filipinos into this, and yet you did. Then when you get called out for posting shit like that you make a lame excuse by saying its a diss applicable to all. Maybe in your pea-sized brain it is not an insult. I swear, even to this day i wonder why there are still ignorant cavemen like you, considering its already the information age.

THis is good news. But its going to take time isnt it? Dont they have to have a list of PEDS that are banned and others that arent? I think it could take a while.

that's good. boxers now have to comply with official boxing commission rules and not just made up stipulations by their opponents. like Mayweater .... the guy that paid 600,00 dollars for a two pound advantage over a bloated featherweight in JMM?

I am all for extended testing procedures like this. They apply to everyone and nobody is singled out

The New York State Athletic Commission is considering changes in the way it regulates boxing in the state, changes that could include implementing blood-testing procedures to detect performance enhancing drugs. Melvina Lathan, chairwoman of the NYSAC, said the commission's medical advisory board is in the process of researching various policies and procedures available to regulate boxing, including blood testing for PEDs. "We're in the process of doing the research now," Lathan said. "We have been for several weeks. We're going to upgrade our testing policies. As soon as my medical advisory board gets back to me with their findings, we're going to look over their recommendations." The NYSAC currently tests for steroids and other banned substances through a urinalysis conducted not only just before and immediately after every championship fight, but also other random bouts. But growing concern over the use of HGH and other PED's detectable only through blood tests has caused the NYSAC to investigate whether changes are needed. "We're tossing around a lot of policies," Lathan said. "We're trying to find out which ones work better for our state, for our boxers and for boxing. We're trying to get what works, and once we get all of those things together, then we'll come out with a statement about our policies." An impasse over blood-testing procedures ruined a potential bout between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. And the use of PEDs became a topic during a press conference yesterday to announce the May 15 WBA junior welterweight title fight between the champion Amir Khan of England and challenger Paulie Malignaggi of Brooklyn. The fight will be held at the Theater at Madison Square Garden. Malignaggi recently ruffled Khan's camp by saying it has crossed his mind that Khan might be dirty considering he trains with Pacquiao at Freddie Roach's Wildcard Gym in Los Angeles. Pacquiao and Khan both train under Roach and conditioning coach Alex Ariza. "I know some people have made some comments about using steroids and that ticked me off," Roach said yesterday. "Why can't they just accept that these two guys work harder and they're great fighters?" Malignaggi didn't back down. "I stand by what I said. But this is between Paulie Malignaggi and Amir Khan," Malignaggi said. "It's not about Freddie Roach. It's not about Manny Pacquiao. It isn't about steroids. On May 15, the bell is going to ring and we're going to settle it in there." The NYSAC probably won't have its new policies in place by then, but perhaps by the end of the summer. "It's something that needs to be addressed," Lathan said. "It's been a number of years since it's been dealt with, and I think it's something we need to look at. It's still in the discussion phase. There are a lot more meetings and a lot more discussions left until we actually settle in on something final." http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/boxing/boxing_commission_mulls_testing_NPcAjJheJkA0fF9TitFQpJ A step in the right direction.

With all the different new PED's out there is time to update the testing. Even when testing some still go undetected, I don't think there is a fool proof method but it has to start some where and some how. They only way we have found out with some athletes is cause they were under Federal investigation and given immunity otherwise they would had gone undetected.

i'm all for it. as long as it is mandated by a proper commission, it's a 100% a-ok to me. :) but no to the whims of any certain person just to get under someone's skin. :(

I swear you haven't backed up your take since the first time you quoted me. Why does Mosley bring more money? because he does!lmao! can you prove it? uhm yeah i'll prove it later! lololol!:haha::haha::haha: Now we're trying the reverse approach. "Cotto is a bigger draw!" Prove it. "Uhh...no, you prove he's not!" This is getting boring.

No. He's just moving from one opinion to the other. "Cotto is the bigger draw!" How? "He has a bigger fanbase" :lol1: I swear, you can't make this stuff up.

This is good for boxing. :) I see you :boxing:

"More fan base"? Really? Where did you go to school? Jesus Christ. It's pretty easy for you to look up PPV numbers right? And uh wouldn't things like endorsements and sponsorships and maybe TV deals affect your little cozy equation? Just sayin. No. He's just moving from one opinion to the other. "Cotto is the bigger draw!" How? "He has a bigger fanbase" :lol1: I swear, you can't make this stuff up.

This is good for boxing. :)
