This is all just sales talk to sell their product. If a drug is not detected by the current standard drug testing method then that drug does not exist. you can petition the boxing commissions if you want another testing method which Mayweathers team has not done.Comment

and yet noone has yet to even make an attempt to petition or request any sort of upgrade to the nsac. Why??? If it's such a joke that there's an overwhelming amount of evidence to support it....why hasnt anyone made any sort of petition, letter, or even a verbal request whatsoever for the commission to change it's testing procedures.Comment

Look past Mayweather and Pac, no boxing/sports fan in their right mind would be against boxing and all sports getting better test.Last edited by DE100; 01-22-2010, 03:53 AM.Comment

Good interview.
"...I'm not worried about the 14-day or the 24-day blackout period, I'm worried about the rest of it. If someone's telling you that's where it fell apart, I think you've got to add the follow-up, 'Well, what kind of testing was going to happen before the 14-day or the 24-day blackout period?' The 14-day period, I'm a lot less concerned about that than what you're doing in the two months before that 14-day period."
Sounds to me like this guy wasn't terribly concerned with a 24 day cutoff so long as their was legit testing up until that point.Last edited by Tsukiyomi; 01-22-2010, 04:17 AM.Comment

That is a long read. But I'll take your word for it that it contains useful information.
Is there any part of that interview that says that testing/drawing blood immediately after a fight is just as good as taking it 13-12-11-etc days before fight randomly?
Someone awhile ago posted that Phelps would get tested/draw blood after every racehe would win. That's exactly what Pac is willing to do, draw blood after the fight. That's just as good, right?Comment

What is more, he gave the impression that random urine testing was capable of detecting most of the problem PEDs, and furthermore to mask blood you would need a relatively longer time span to hide the traces of a transfusion.
That was about as credible a source as we can get, and actually Pacquaio isn't looking as suspect in his stance as he was before.Comment
