Mayweather-Pacquiao in Jeopardy Over Drug Test - Merged Thread:

[dom329]

if the test is random then there is a chance one fighter gets tested closer to the fight...

and since its Mayweather's camp that is railheading this unprecedented drug testing for professional boxing then it will most likely be Pacquiao that gets 3 gallons of blood drawn on fight night....


he buys 2 extra pounds against JMM ,,,,

i would not put naything past Mayweather camp

If you look at the guidelines I don think they will be drawing any blood the week of the fight.

So how do you exactly flush out roids minutes after the fight?

pre, naunahan mo lang ako. i was about to say the same thing to this moron.

Well, I am not a Floyd fan (based on his in ring performance NOT his attitude, which I think is great) but I have to admit, as a Manny backer it's very telling if he refuses to have his blood drawn. If you have nothing to hide you do it. He's a boxer, he gets punched in the face and cut for a living but he's afraid of a needle? Not buying it for a second. Hopefully this is just a ploy to keep the fight at the forefront of sports news with 3 months to go.

EDIT: and for the record, you can STOP your 'roid cycle a couple weeks BEFORE the fight and still utilize the benefits of the juice while having a "clean" test after the fight. What you gain from cheating doesn't just go away in a week or two but the blood is "normal" by then.

Why not just do it after the fight? what difference does it make? i'ts not as if he's gonna flush it out with his **** or urine,is he?
I think the Mayweathers just want to make some issue out of it to make PAc look like hes into something coz they already knew PAc doesn't Like it close to a fight.
Nonetheless, i were PAC i would just agree to it! but i will respect his decision if he won't, i guess he feels being bullied by the mayweathers this way.Blood testing after the fight is more than enough.

30 days before the fight and after of blood test should be more than enough to do the job.....these no class ***** ass mayweathers needs to stop with their ridiculous demands...

Fight the man.

If Manny has never had to do this before, if the NSAC does not enforce blood testing, then Pac is free to do whatever he wants.

Some things are based off principle, if Mayweather's camp wants to play chicken they will lose. As I've said before it's a point now where Mayweather needs Pacquiao, not the other way around.

So Pacquiao doesn't have to play these games. He doesn't need to follow orders created by Mayweather's camp. If he refuses to do it, Mayweather will budge.

He should do it, Floyd is going for it too so why cant he? Is he hidding something? No one knows, he should do it to shut people up about all this Juicing drama thats being around, but it makes you wonder if he wont do it.

[GameBullDawg]

All Mayweather wants is a fair bout and because he is the dude who will step in that ring, he has a right to ask for one.

Say man , I thought yall said this was EASY,,,, lests say it ,,ready,,,,,,EEEEEEE AAAAAAAAA SSSSSSSSSSSSS YYYYY !

feel better dude and all yall dudes ?? Why if its such an easy fight , Pbf is pulling out all the stops???

Could it be he wants out of the Fight ,,,,AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAah !!!!

Yes , he wants out of the fight,,,

The point is that you would have already cycle off the drugs by the time the test after the fight is given. What would be the point of random tests if they didnt work? Also boxing dosent check blood which can trace something like HGH which urine cant. Many people dont think pac is on steroids but they think he is on Human Growth Hormone the same thing that baseball players took when they broke crazy records.

Pac's training camp is how long? If he got off "roids" a month prior to his fight, then his cycle would be useless presumably because he wouldn't be able to take it for the full duration of two months. It's not enough time, especially since he was just tested last week.

Plenty of things show up in blood tests that are false positives, years ago a downhill skier tested positive for steroids, all he was taking was a protein based powder called Nitro-Tech. Roy tested positive because he was taking a fat-burner from Twinlabs. It's possible that Pac could be taking T enhancers that act as precursor hormones, those aren't illegal but you will test positive. Ever heard of PEA? It's an extract from a plant and it's in a lot of fatburners, if you're on it and take a drug test....you'll test positive for Meth, as the chemical composition of PEA mirrors that of methylamines. The point is Pac can take the test after and focus on training for the fight of his life, without any of these side-show distractions.

I dont know how some *******S say this testing is unprescented, HELLO HELLO california state atheltic commission has put into practice a few years ago. Boxers that fight in california or MMA fighters have gone through random blood testing.
