    I think the problem seems to be that Pacquiao and his team are trying to force the third party organisation to change their standard protocol, but being that the USADA are pretty much bigger than this one little fight they aren't willing to bend or compromise the comprehensiveness and accuracy of their methods for one dude, so Arum and Pacquiao get mad and want to use a different third party, which the Mayweather's et al find su****ious seeing as the USADA are pretty much the most reliable anti-doping agency in the States and are refusing to bow down to Arum & co.'s demands.

          USADA work with the NBA, MLB, NFL and more. They are a government funded agency and as far as I can tell are the biggest and most authoritative anti-doping agency in America.

          This talk about them being compromised or biased or small-time is all fallacy.

            nobody's arguing whether or not he did. it's clear he agreed to testing.





            problem is, he wants to decide when and where he'll be tested....that's contradictory to what's being asked for.

                that's also where urine testing falls out, bro.


                as has been stated many time, in articles posted on this site alone, there are drugs, specifically HGH, that cannot be traced in urine testing. that's where blood testing comes in, to track those drugs normally not found in piss.


                the fact that pacquiao wants to decide when and where he'll give blood, gives him the advantage of knowing when to stop using steroids ( IF he's taking them).

                if the blood tests are random, it beocomes damn near impossible for a steroid user to cycle on and off, without being caught.

                once again, not saying pacman definitely IS taking something, but the way everything is shaking down makes it more su****ious. a truly innocent person would be willing to be tested anytime, and i don't wanna get into the whole "superstitious," and "afraid of needles" excuses.

                  Those are lies, or you're both just lacking in comprehension.
                  The "cutoff date" is when drawing of blood must pause.
                  If anytime prior to the cutoff, blood can be taken without warning,
                  it's still random. Unless you're imagining that USADA can stop the
                  fight in the 4th round to take blood, you must accept that testing
                  WILL pause prior to the fight: the question is WHEN it will pause.

                  I've been informed that USADA doesn't take blood once it's 48 hours
                  to the event. That means Pacquiao's actually willing to undergo
                  far more than USADA was going to impose:


                  Arum wanted 30 days cutoff, and Roach wanted 4-5 days.
                  All Pac indicated (and we know it was him who actually authored
                  said statement because it was verbal and on video) was a 24 hour
                  cutoff. He voiced no objection to random blood-drawings prior to
                  the cutoff, nor to USADA being the ones to take/test his blood.

                  Don't confuse Arum w/ Pacquiao.
                  Pac has overruled Arum in the past (OdlH purse cut).
                  On the other hand, Arum nixed Pac's desire to fight Shane, and
                  steered him towards Top Rank stablemate Cotto.

                  The problem isn't that Arum wants USADA to tailor its protocols.
                  The problem is that Arum doesn't want USADA involved at.
                  He wants some other body to do blood tests on Arum's schedule.

                  Arum's concerned for three reasons (with little to no validity).

                  1. First is the number of lawsuits brought against USADA over alleged
                  false positives, which indicate excessively low thresholds for positives
                  in WSADA's data interpretation
                  . The concern is based on the fact that
                  many of the traces to be tested for occur naturally in the human body,
                  hence WSADA's low thresholds might mistake elevated (but natural)
                  levels to be indicative of doping. If Pac really is a freak of nature, he'll
                  have freakish levels of something in his system ...but naturally.

                  2. It's, AFAICT, also protocol for USADA to take more blood than they
                  actually need for testing: they store the extra as samples for possible
                  future testing, using as-yet-undeveloped technologies. Pacquiao is
                  obviously uncomfortable about losing more blood, but my opinion is
                  that he'll cowboy up and give whatever USADA requires, whenever it
                  requires, just for the opportunity to put the beatdown on Floyd.

                  3. It sets a difficult precedent for testing in pro boxing, and major
                  changes --especially expensive ones-- are rarely welcome in any
                  business. My personal opinion is that this sort of change is welcome.

                    Pac just said today....

                    He wants a 30 Day period before the fight where hes not allowed to be tested,

                      then tell my why are random urine tests is still required and accepted form by Dept of transportion and aviation if urine testing is a flunk since u know so much? are u saying 90% of pilots, bus drivers, truckers and majority of commercial drivers license holders always find a way to pass a dirty urine test?
