Do you believe him,if this issue does make this fight get cancelled who would you blame??
Side note:If this fight get's cancelled due to Marquez not wanting to deal with USADA or VADA..How would you feel about him??
Let's be honest though, Bradley is saying it's in the contract but he probably doesn't know the specifics of what is in the contract. Who will have had the contract drawn up? I'm guessing Bob Arum.
Bradley has lawyers bro,who I'm sure he said to make sure this was in the contract..Which is why I believe he is so vocal on what is in the contract..I don't believe Bradley would be talking with such certainty if he did not know what was in the contract bro..

I wouldn't be surprised if it was agreed upon on words, but never written up and not there when he signed it.
If the contract is breach then Bradley stands to still make a load of money for doing nothing at all..Someone will be sued,and Bradley will have to be compensated for damages..This is of course if he has this in his contract..
My issue with this is that,he'd be out of the ring again with no dance partner..Which will suck tbh..

my picture is in the training section. i am 230 lbs and quite robust. in college was 235 and well below 10% BF naturally. i was turn your head jacked. i am still remarkably muscular. you don't hit 230 at 5'8" without knowing your way around a weight room. i have lifted weights for years. i would post it here but frankly i post my shirtless picture too often on this website full of dudes.
what marquez did at 38 and during a boxing training camp is completely impossible. if it were not everybody would do be doing it!
he didn't even put on close to 7-9 lbs, and you couldn't tell that anyway.
you're acting like hooking up with one of the world's experts on steroids is no big deal.
he has been working with memo for about 2 years that is a lot of time to get rip
From what I understand Marquez wanted USADA and Bradley wanted VADA..They agree to be tested by both..
I don't understand how this is a problem that came out a month after they compromised.
A week max... yea... but a month?
What kind of testing was agreed on for this fight?

I'm not saying Marquez is on anything,but if he does not take the test and this fight is cancelled..IMO he is going to look very(very)suspect..

People comparing this to the Floyd Pac issue are a bit off base imo..This is nothing like that situation at all..Marquez and Bradley have both signed to fight each other(Pac and Floyd never signed anything)..If what Bradley say's is true it states that Vada and USADA were agreed upon to issue testing(Floyd and Manny never reach any agreement of any kind)..
IMO The Floyd Pac situation had blame on both sides,I never like talking about it cause it's such a tricky and touchy issue..
If Bradley has already signed the contract and there was nothing in the contract about drug testing then I would blame Bradley for the fight being cancelled if he pulled out. If drug testing was in the contract then Bradley would have a right to pull out if drug testing was not going to be done. A fighter has to make his demands before he signs the contract. He can't add new demands after the fight is signed. I doubt Bradley will pull out of the fight even if no testing is done. It's a very big payday for Bradley and much more money than he could make with anyone else available right now.

Every single thing about Floyd fans in this site is always in connection with Pacquiao vs Mayweather. There's nothing in between.
Testing really shouldn't be a problem at all, only people who don't want to test are people with something to hide and Arum only cares about the Money he don't care about Testing or the fight being fair or any of that sh1t
If this NSAC testing follows the same protocol as a VADA or USADA, with similar materials and methods, then I will blame Bradley. How could he know for sure if it might not even be BETTER than those agencies?
Are there any specifics on how the commission would be testing? I thought I read it would be with blood and CIR with 4:1? If it will still be just the normal urine testing of the past, then obviously Tim's has a major gripe if it was indeed in the contract.
The results of sound science must be able to be replicated as long as the same methods are used. Doesn't mean it will prevent anyone from trying and succeeding in circumventing the tests...but if they use the same protocol, then you would expect a negative or positive result on one test to be true for ALL tests that are designed the same way. This is why I'd really love to have both agencies test one fight. :fingersx:
I understand that there are some differences between VADA and USADA themselves, but if the NSAC test can structure the test to be a replica of one or the other, then I don't see the issue. It eliminates the middleman and I thought that's what people wanted? Or does that just bring us right back to the commission is corrupt, Arum is corrupt, boxing is corrupt, never satisfied grey area?
Sorry my friend, but you w/the statements that you made, you show that you know absolutely dlck about training, nutrition and human physiology, not to mention supplementation. Marquez MAYBE put on 7-9 lbs of lean mass. This is not much if you are training, eating and supplementing the right way...even for a 40 year old. You act like the guy gained 25 lbs of muscle or something. He did a simple recomp(lose fat while gaining lean mass). Not that big a deal.

Memo must have told Marquez that his peds were undetectable but he's not 100% sure with these new state of the art testing so he can't guarantee Marquez :lol1:.
I wouldn't be surprise if VADA found urine in Marquez blood.
Wait wait wait a minute is drug testing in the contract or not? If its not then wtf is he talking about he has to fight regardless he signed, IF it is then the same wtf but directed the other way.
I'm not saying Marquez is on anything,but if he does not take the test and this fight is cancelled..IMO he is going to look very(very)suspect..
He would lose respect not accepting testing. There is only one reason not to test.
I don't blame Bradley at all.
Idiotic idea on your part. First he has to request an advance notice of when the tests will be conducted
Sarcasm, mate.
Edit :lol1: I missed your sarcasm! Sorry mate.
I agree :lol1:
