    Floyd Mayweather will literally be able to say that he cleaned up the sport, he would love that, really.

        Real question is what is wrong with agreeing to be tested right after the fight?

        Any rational explanation for that?

            Did you read the article. She said that if they know when they will be tested they will mask and clean their system. Pac will simply be clean by fight night, Therefore post fight testing makes no difference....

              Email the relative experts for the technical reasons , even Manny and Arum are not touching what is right or wrong or works or dont work only that they want to call the days they get tested , how kind of them lol , if straight after the fight was a sure fire catch of a cheat then the experts would only test directly after any event , they dont , there is your answer , they dont do it because it obviously dont achieve an accurate result .

                Both sides are right and wrong in a sense.

                The commissions oversee fights and do their own drug testing, fighters can ask for things outside in the norm in the contracts. Mayweather can ask for more stringest drug testing, as anyone with a basic knowledge of the drug testing in boxing knows that it doesn't take a genius to get around the testing, and Pacquiao can ask for penalties for an opponent being overweight as he has done on several occassions. As I've said before, things in the contract outside the norm aren't that rare, and almost always the fighter with more leverage (i.e. box office power) is the one benefitting from it.

                Everyone's looking bad here. Team Mayweather simply should've just asked for stricter drug testing instead of making accusations. But of course, you can't stop Floyd Sr. from opening his mouth, so he kept yapping about how he thought Pacquiao was dirty and Floyd Jr. implied this on a radio show. So now we have this lawsuit. You've got Freddie Roach saying "blood tests are fine up to 3 days before the fight" or whatever and then later on you hear Bob Arum saying Manny only wants it up to 30 days before. Instead of simply saying they will go by the usual NSAC rules, we hear about how the tattoo-filled Manny being scared of needles and whatnot. Arum creates a new deadline every few days. Pacquiao writes a letter saying "all liars go to hell" and becoming more Holyfield-like with his religion talk (two married men known to **** anything that moves). Richard Schaefer and Oscar showing how blatantly hypocritical they are. Until they come to an agreement and get on with the fight, **** everyone in this ****ing mess.

                Personally I don't know why anyone in this day and age would be surprised by any athlete using PEDs. Wow, a competitive athlete at a high level does something against the rules in order to recover quicker from workouts and train harder and improve their performance. Am I supposed to be shocked or something? My favorite argument is "he doesn't look like the type to cheat". What exactly does a cheating athlete look like?

                  Pac is using PEDs, too much evidence. Every move he's made is to buy time and mask usage, plain and simple. His entire team, promoter, trainers, and legal reps are trying to cover for him.

                      Pac will simply be clean by fight night?! Don't you see anything wrong with that statement or was it a mistake. Pac will simply be clean by fight night?
