What would prevent YOU from taking an Olympic Style steroid test?

[DiLLiNGER]

being exposed would be the biggest concern of course.

[FLY TY]

Only if I wasn't clean.

pretty much....

Cut it out. Pacquiao knew about that blood test for Morales WAY before he took it. Maybe he lost because he couldn't take his enhancements.

The tests Manny and his team agreed to are above and beyond those that the Commission requires. Whats the problem from Mayweathers side again?

The question remains:

If those tests are above and beyond what the commission requires, why did they agree to it in the first place instead of just saying:

"No we will not be subjected to those tests. We'd rather use a different agency's protocols which are not so invasive" ?

They look bad for agreeing to it in the first place then changing their mind at the last minute to save face.

It seems Pacs team is still agreeing to extra testing. Just not the extent Mayweathers camp wants, I believe thats what you call a compromise.

i'm trying to find it. it's on here. hard to find it because bigpoppapump merged all the "testing" threads.

it was the article where they quoted schaeffer or an email from schaeffer.

scheaffer said something on the line of "they want to do 1 test 30 days before the fight and 1 after the fight. it doesn't work that way. the agency will do up to 5 blood tests and up to 12 urine tests"

that's where i got the number 20.

obviously it might be less since schaeffer said "up to" not necessarily 5 and 12.

5 blood tests for the testing agency
12 urine tests for the testing agency
2 urine tests for the nsac (if they do one before and after the fight)

19.

ipacquiao has to take a blood test for the nsac next month too to renew his boxing license but i don't know if that's just for hiv , hep , etc. or if it includes testing for drugs too. not sure.

if you include that , that's 20. though i don't know if it should be counted since i'm not quite sure if they test for drugs too or it's just for hiv , hep and other non-drug related stuff.

That's what I thought. I don't know Manny's system but I'm pretty sure he pees 12 times a month. And five blood tests over two months is NOTHING.

Poor Manny, how dare they ask him to pee 12 times.

[Kevin Jesus]

Possibly, I dont know the reason. Im not Pacs biggest supporter here Kev, I just want to see a good fight and I dont believe Manny has a chance if hes not 100%. If he even perceives this may affect him negatively Im against it.

If he's mentally weak then he has no business being in the ring with a boxer like Floyd Mayweather Jr in the first place. You have to be smart to beat Floyd. With or without the tests, you would not see a good fight. You will see a very smart boxer vs a mentally weak, frustrated, boxer who relies on brute strength and speed en route to a 12 round decision. Just another surgical procedure on another Floyd patient.

Thats very possible, but if thats the case and Mayweather is still unwilling to face Pac without the tests maybe Mayweather is also mentally weak. Maybe everyone doubting him has hurt his ego and he's looking for a way out.

i don't think they care about urine testing.

it's the blood thing that is an issue for some reason.

you can criticize manny all you want and accuse him of hiding something because he doesn't agree BUT don't make it seem like floyd's demand is normal.

it is quite extraordinary in fact.
