Floyd should be commended for possibly making the sport cleaner!

[FLYBOY]

first off if you read his statement Pacquiao has agreed to any thing the NSAC wants and if they want random testing blood/urine, Pacquiao is agreeing with them 100%. So the only thing thats holding off the fight is Mayweather because Pacquiao is only letting the NSAC do his testing which is the way it should be. Why bring in somebody else who has never done testing before in professional boxing and when asked why your doing it you say you want a fair fight. Well why didn't Mayweather want Marquez to get blood testing the olympic testing way??? because he's scared of Pacquiao.

Second off, Mosley and De La Hoya 2 was in 2003. PED and Steriod testing has changed so much since then. It's 2010 now and 7 years is a lot of time to make changes which they have and caught boxers cheating.

and 3rd off If Mayweather wants the fight he should of just skipped all this extra testing and let the NSAC handle it. The fight would have been signed by now and we would have been seeing commercials of the fight. The weight penalty goes to both boxers and Pacquiao is just making sure Mayweather knows he has to be 147 or below that. So if Mayweather does come in overweight, he will be bitched slapped in his wallet. Mayweather might come in 148 or something and not come in the agreed weight like he did with Marquez but now he wont because he NEEDS the money.

The difference in this fight is Mayweather NEEDS the money and Pacquiao doesn't.

1. Because if you look closely, it is very unusual for fighters to go up in weight and destroy bigger guys. Even ATG's Sugar Ray Robinson, and Sugar Ray Leanord, and Tommy Hearns did not do that. They outskilled their opponents and then took them out. Besides, the testing would be great way to clear Manny's name, wouldn't it?

2. NSAC is clearly not doing its job. Margarito got away with the plaster recently.... And no, they still cannot detect certain drugs such as HGH in urine. They are currently working on a urine test for it. HGH as of now can only be detected through blood samples and bone marrow samples.

3. Floyd is smart, very smart. He is doing the right thing by making Pac do the random testing. If you had a brain, you would understand it.

His request of random blood and urine testing can possibly be introduced for good and as a must for every fighter, and it will help clean up the sport, NO DOUBT.
This is a sport where humans hit each other and "EXTRA HELP" can become very devastating... plaster of paris, mixed up drinks and PED's must get the hell out of Boxing!

Urine tests are proven to be more accurate and more expensive than blood tests to detect any perf drugs or steroids. You can take urine tests even daily. So your point is borne out of lack of info

NO. TEAM PAC DID NOT AGREE WITH THE RANDOM TESTING. They laid out specific dates for the testing which defeats the purpose. TELL ME WHY PAC WANTS TO DO TESTING ON SPECIFIC DATES? WHY NOT ON RANDOM DATES TO SHUT EVERYONE UP? HE IS DEFINATELY ON SOME PED'S.
Roger has only talked once or twice for this fight. I don't know why you keep on saying Roger.

You are stating a proposal that was given by team pac at the start of negotiation, why didn't team floyd just made a counter proposal?! When they leaked those details out to the press the negotiation came to a complete stop, and why is that?! Because now team pac has to or forced to deal with the press and everybody who is somebody in boxing, and try to defend themselves. What is floyd's motivation in instigating chaos in the middle of negotiation?! You tell me that!!

Pacquiao started PROFESSIONALLY boxing at 16 years old. He was 106 at that weight. Floyd was 106 at that weight. Pacquiao is 140-147 at 30 years old. So was FLoyd when he hit 30. So does that make him on Steriods or PED????

What does Plaster have to do with Steriods??? and Pacquiao hasn't gotten Bulkier or none of that So how does that make him on Steriods?. In fact he looks more CUT at the lower weight and looks like he is healthier now. He was clearly weight drained the last couple of fights at 130. So just because he was faster then De La Hoya, Knocked out Hatton, and Took Cottos punches and punished him means he's on STERIODS Or PED?? lol I didn't know PED's numbs your body from punishment?? lol ******. If Taking Cotto's Punches really made you think he's on Steriods, i think you would have a better case saying he's on PCP then PED.

And Floyd is scared. Thats the Bottem LINE. He retired to not fight Margarito, Cotto, Mosley, Williams, etc. then Came back and acted like he was the **** for beating a fat Marquez at WW. Now is trying to accuse pacquiao of something he has NO PROOF of because their is no PROOF. So he could get out of this fight and try to put the blame on pac Man. Pacquiao has agreed to give blood randomly if the NSAC approves it. SO i don't know where your getting at when you say he has Refused random testing. So ANYBODY with a BRAIN could see Mayweather is ducking Pacquiao.

come on man, floyd was just trying to seek a way out of the fight! At the start when floyd insisted for an olympic style drug testing, manny's camp were more than willing and accepted the request in an instant. But then under that clause, manny has to submit himself to 7-8 random blood testing the entire training schedule, manny always does 8 weeks of training, so are they expecting manny to do the blood test every week during training? Wtf is that, a blood test every other week i think is more than enough already. Then team pac offered in the initial negotiation the 3days blood test with unlimited number of urine test. The problem is, the mayweathers along with gbp leaked that detail to the press and claimed it to be the final offer already from team pac, wtf is that, their in the middle of negotiations man, they should have just offered a counter proposal as simple as that!! These are clearly malicious insinuations hoping to get public sympathy and discredit manny as an atg fighter, why would they do that if floyd really wants to fight manny. And then just recently just to save the fight, manny already is willing to comply with the nsac rules and subject himself to random blood/urine testing, just as long its only the nsac who's doing it. But lo and behold, after hearing about this new turn of events, roger mayweather also recently made a statement that the nsac uses fake doctors as their staff. What the f****k is that now?!! Do the mayweathers really want this fight to happen, to me they are just a bunch of *******!!

very well said!!

Very well said man, and to add to that, the NSAC is doing this fight in close contact with USADA.. I don't know whats floyd's excuse now??

Good point. It should be done right after the fight.

[mach]

Don't be so naive about Paquiao's so- called aversion to RANDOM drug testing. This is just a pissing contest. He's just trying to show that he can't be bullied into submitting himself to Mayweather's whims and caprices.

If NSAC will ask Pacquiao to do the Olympic Style Drug Testing, Pacman will do it in a hearbeat. OR if Floyd will agree to a 65-35 purse split in Pacman's favor.
