Why demand PED testing for the biggest fight in history?

I thought 24 days was just a cutoff date, wasn't it? That means Pac can be tested randomly, anytime from the start of training camp to 24 days before the fight. That gives about a one month window for a random blood test, plus unlimited urine testing (to detect common steroids, EPO, etc).Comment

I don't know how old that article is but it doesn't even seem as if this new test has hit the market. Furthermore, it doesn't matter. Those same organizations quoted in that article as being excited about the potential of this new test are the same ones who are demanding urine AND blood testing.Blood test, blood test, blood test, there are other means other than blood test there is Hair and Saliva but Mayweather never brought this up as an alternatives in the proposal. And there is said, to be a break through where HGH can now be detected by urine testing http://www.usatoday.com/sports/2008-...ine-test_N.htm. why not also mention this as another option.Comment

I'm not against stricter testing. Pac agreed to stricter testing. You have to draw the line somewhere. Pac's line was based on personal experience (1st Morales fight).
Bottom line, Pac agreed to stricter testing. Is this a true statement or not?Comment

Pac never agreed to random testing, he said testing on three fixed dates. The first test date was at the start of the promo tour, the second was at 30 days before the fight and then was moved to 24 days before the fight and the last one was after the fight.I thought 24 days was just a cutoff date, wasn't it? That means Pac can be tested randomly, anytime from the start of training camp to 24 days before the fight. That gives about a one month window for a random blood test, plus unlimited urine testing (to detect common steroids, EPO, etc).Comment
