    I have no problem actually with the testing, should it be mandated by the proper comissions. I think it is good for the sport and is needed, again mandated properly. Not by one camp, fighter, promotional company.

      random blood testing should be done for all fights not just this fight. if anyone is cheating they are a cancer to the sport we love.

        Why is there a Supermiddleweight division? Cause Sugar Ray Leonard said so? Why are fights 12 rounds? Cause Leonard said that to?
        Why do fighters where gloves instead of bare knuckles? Why are low blows and punches to the back of the head illegal?

        Rules are meant to be changed, upgraded, redefined. This is the steroid era homie, and Pac is looking like a user.

          good post.

          but you don't agree in this case, b/c it's floyd mayweather jr., that decided to bring it up?

            Obviously Pac can care less about history and legacy as well, cause his is about to be jacked up.

              Someone has to take the first step.

                  My issue is not with Floyd bringing it up, but any boxer requiring it. Why didn't Floyd bring it up in any of his prev. fights? I'm saying the powers that be need to make this the standard, not just for one fight. I'd applaud FMJ had he come out while not negotiating for a fight and said "you know, we should have more in depth testing".

                    Why do it for this one fight though? Of course, the one fight people want to see more than any fight in the past 10 years.

                      Exactly my point. Why applaud FMJ or Golden Boy for this NOW? Look at this for what it is and not what you want it to be.
