    Does The Tommy Morrison HIV Saga Make Floyd Look Bad?

    Tommy tested positive for HIV, then negative, then positive again...I think this shows that we need extra testing in boxing, especially for Floyd fights.

    The current set of tests is not working 100% and boxers need greater protection.

    Floyd will agree to any HIV testing, if Pacman agrees to steroid testing.

        i agree, floyd is a danger to all his opponents with his hiv. good thing he doesn't bleed in fights often.

            I think Mayweather isn't being too unfair in his approach, he agreed to 10mill penalty over 147 which is crazy, so he wants blood tests in return

              I must have missed something. Where did all these aids threads come from?

                No, 147 is the weight of the fight. If you don't stick to the rules of the fight then your opponent can pull out and sue you anyway, so Mayweather is not giving much benefit in agreeing to that. That clause is needed because he is known for coming in over-weight.

                Floyd is cherry picking smaller man Pacquiao, there has to be some limit on how big a weight advantage he is allowed.

                  I hate when ppl use 1 very rare example for anything and insist everything should chance because of something that doesn't happen very often and is not even likely to ever occur again.
