    ONE teaspoon my @$$!!!

    Mayweather is demanding Olympic-style testing conducted by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, whose inflexible protocol calls for random urine and blood testing throughout training camps, fight week and even the day of the fight, with the ability to test any time, day or night. Both fighters would be subject to the same kind of testing.


    The Pacquiao camp originally suggested using the more flexible agencies that oversee testing for American professional sports leagues before Arum said testing should be overseen by the Nevada commission.


    Pacquiao, though, isn’t the only high-profile athlete who has expressed reservations about giving blood near or at the time of competition. Jamaican sprinter Asafa Powell complained he was tested excessively during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, in which he won a gold medal as a member of his nation’s 4 x 100 meter relay team.

    exerpt:


    "About two days ago, I got pretty upset, because since I've been here, they've tested me four times, and they took blood — a lot of blood," Powell said at an invitation-only news conference to promote his shoe sponsor.

    Then, tongue apparently planted firmly in cheek, Powell added: "They (USADA) are taking so much blood, I am going to be very weak before the final of the 100 meters."



    ONE teaspoon? yeah right! no wonder team pac was calling this off. intrusiveness and completely unnecessary.

    As boxing's superfight hangs in the balance, experts chime in on blood testing's efficacy. And they're siding with Mayweather.

    First of all, the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency agreed that they won’t take blood from the fighters 48 hours before the fight as some people seem to think. They’re going to take only a few tablespoons through random testing in the three months leading up to the fight.
