How come no Olympic style testing for Berto-Shane?

[aether]

how come there is no outcry for this fight not having olympic style testing? shane is an admitted roid user, yet he isn't being subjected to the "super flawless" olympic style testing?

wait... could it be because the testing wasn't really to ensure a fair fight, but a smear on pacquiao's name by floyd's camp? is that too outrageous?

[aether]

still nothing? i'll wait....:wank:

[Gutz]

I thought Al-Haymon wanted to clean up boxing..

WTF!!!

he will test Pac who tested clean for 11yrs.


But wont test Mosley who cheated before!!!

bumping this thread...
People should read Iole's column, it pretty much sums up the hypocrisy of both camps, points not to be ignored, unless one is a diehard ***** or a *******.

Iole did raise a good point on Berto-Moseley though.

It very simple solution for your focus , if Shane or Berto ask for test then have test , nobody else but opponent this effect , we all just lookers nobody punch us , they do action , test for fighter to ask for

Because Floyd/Manny negotiations took place after the Mosely/Berto negotiations?

Because Berto is trying to break onto the scene, and has much to gain from a win against Mosely? Like or not, outside of bragging rights, Floyd wont gain much beating Pac, he's already considered great.

Because not many casual fans care about the Berto/Mosely fight, and whether or not one of them is on PED's is irrelevant to the masses. They care much more about the cleanliness of the sports "good guy".

And even because it wasn't asked for, it likely wouldn't be opposed be either camp, and if it were, especially if it were by the Mosely camp, it would raise su****ions.

etc, etc, etc

Verdugo, why would you ask for someone to respond, and when they do, "bad rep" their post instead of posting a rebuttal?

[BattlingNelson]

What's up with that Al Haymon? Shane actually admitted using drugs. Olympic style testing is the only way to make sure that no one is cheating right?

................................

Good question. I'll give you 3 possible answers:

1: Haymon doesn't believe Mosley will roid again.
2: A rigorous testing procedure is highly expensive and not the fight isn't big enough to warrant such a schedule.
3: A combination of 1 and 2.

I say every true boxing fan who cares for the safety of boxers, specifically Berto should be up in arms with this. Berto, although not a ***** like Floyd should be protected as well. GBP/Haymon with all their press releases regarding their crusade to clean up boxing should step up to the plate.

I say USADA testing now for BERTO/MOSLEY or we boycott the fight.
