Testing has to be both blood and urine, and it has to be random. Otherwise, it can be gotten around.

Yes, I stand corrected, They test for both..

HGH is banned, so it's a moot point as to how much it would help Pac-Man or anyone else. It's illegal, and that's all there is to it.

This is from someone knowledgeable about HGH and its uses "HGH is used to improve vision, energy levels and heals the body quicker, especially when you're working out the overgrown muscles from steroid usage. The latter is the #1 reason why athletes have used HGH. The muscle that has been enhanced and enlarged due to steroid usage tends to pull/tear easier than a non steroid assisted muscle. To repair/prevent these tears, HGH is used to aid in recovery of muscle tears. HGH also helps to greatly reduce the muscle soreness of a workout to the enlarged muscle."

So next excuse is.........

I just wonder how many more excuses he is going to come up with -- this is a scandal waiting to happen if the fight doesn't come off. There really is only one reason for refusing the testing....

so by fight night he wouldn't have anything to give him an edge in the fight. i think you are making excuses.you sound like floyd. nore excuses for him to duck another challenege. at least pac can fight mosley or someone else who is floyd going to fight? not cotto,mosley,pac,margarito or williams.

He doesnt need to take anything on fight night if he been taking them in the 30 days cut-off date that we wanted, He would have use those 30 days to build himself up on whatever he could take then get of it with 2 or 3 days to go to fight night.

Yea, The problem is people are justing for them to come out with the next excuse so they can debunk it, Why would any athlete in the world refuse a random drug test if they have nothing to hide and $40 million dollars to lose??? I just dont get it....Even Bill gates would fight his competitor over $40million dollars and the man is a Billionaire.

Cotto on Pacquiao

Cotto should go look for another opponent .... he looked bobo enough as of his last fight .... I don't think making opinions is his strength unless that's the only way to get back at somebody .... Why doesn't Cotto & company apeace that former female employee's accusation? ....

[TOBYLEE1]

No it doesn't. Show me any published research study that indicates HGH increase athletic performance. Even Conte who manufactures PEDs ddeosnt even think highly of HGH.

Ask Andy Petite from the Yankees if it work or not

[joey4pacman]

me, too ....
