    i don't give a **** manny takes 100 blood tests.

    not my problem.

    my point is don't make it seem like floyd's request is nothing out of the ordinary.

    it isn't normal.

    i don't care if you think pac should do it or not.

    just don't say it's no big deal and perfectly normal. it's not.

    name one athlete that has taken 5 blood tests and 12 urine tests in 2 months.

    name one.
    None, and that needs to change, obviously.

    But Mayweather's demand is as normal as a $10 million dollar penalty.

      because it could be 20 tests.

      did i say 20 blood tests?

      schaeffer stated the following:

      3-5 blood tests
      8-12 urine tests

      nsac requires the following:

      2 urine tests
      1 blood test (not for the fight specifically but for pacquiao to be sanctioned to fight this year. also don't know the level of testing for the blood so it might or might not be considered a blood drug test.)



      that's 13-20 tests.

        I'm afraid of needles, it's really uncomfortable, not to mention you have to do it 7 times.
        also superstition. I may not be drained but I would feel like they took something out of me.
        usually when I have to get a blood test done, I don't go to the gym after for fear of something happening.

          The commission demands nothing. Don't you see that? Are you listening to the alternatives to NSAC rules? Basically what everyone else is already doing. We're way behind in this department. And fighters are still getting caught quite often. Go down the list of big names. Then think of the cases you never here. Boxing needs better regulation and to start paying attention to the health of these fighters who are blowing themselves up so they can swap blows from an equally unnatural opponent.

              You're all over the place. Yeah it's 20 tests (or 13-20) but if you and others feel the issue isn't really the urine tests then the complaint is really about 3-5 blood tests. And that is mind-boggling.

                If it is my boss asking me to take it. I don't have a problem with it.

                But, if it is a co-worker who is in the same level of me. I won't take it. Who is he to tell me what to take.

                Is pretty much a matter of principle.

                  I agree. However its up to the Commission NOT Mayweathers camp. If this was standard practice I would be against Pac and his team, but I dont see where Mayweathers team has the right to demand it.

                    All immature reasons. Nothing worth being excusable, just mental ******ation.
