    the standard changes all the time. at one point they didnt do any tests at all, ppl back then couldve said "why dont we stick with the standard". but boxing just like everything else is evolving, including use of illegal substances. and a simple urine test doesnt cover everything.

    the commission didnt find margaritos plaster wraps and he ruined cottos career. this is a dangerous sport and it needs to be monitored properly.

    alot of the mayweathers think pac is on something, i dont think he is. but the real question is if hes clean why wont he get tested?

    all his excuses are lame. first hes scared of needles (yeah right kid, nice tattoos). then he doesnt want to get drained by taking blood (which is physicly impossible).

    then its all mental, and he refuses to get tested the day of the fight. he wants 7 days, he gets 7 days. he wants 14 days, he gets 14 days. now he wants 24 days which makes the tests pointless, floyd realisez pac doesnt want any and the fight is of.

    pac killed the fight not floyd and no matter how much u dislike floyd and dont want to give him credit for anything, u need to realize that.

    bull****..where is your proof that tyson vs hollyfield did an olympic style drug testing?.......even floyd said it has to start somewhere, sometime.....admitting its new to him....

      Somebody also posted an article that show A. Abraham fights do it as well. If they started doing it in championship fights that would be a decent start. The commish won't change the policy unless they are forced to. It would also take a lot of time for them to even decide if they would change the policy.

        it has been done before it just hasnt been mandatory. thats what floyd is looking to accomplish. like he says he wants to clean up boxing and to do that all fighters need to take random blood tests before fights.

        it has been done before on occassion but unless its protocall the sport still isnt clean. like the HIV test thing, possibly some fighters took HIV tests before it became mandatory. its the same here.

        when floyd says it needs to start he means it needs to start being there for every fight, its already been present for some fights.

            you keep saying its been done before and in tyson vs hollyfield but its been said by experts that its new.....provide proof about olympic style testing not for a goddamn hiv test if you can, where is your proof for tyson vs holly field?

              Sure its new but I have a funny feeling that after people see the process on 24/7 you will see more supporters for it in the media.

                He said Tyson requested that Holyfield take the test. There was an article on Boxingscene that tied Holyfield to steroid use but it is only circumstantial.



                Regardless of Mayweathers motivation, it is an issue that needs to be looked into and evaluated. I don't understand the motivation of some people that are quick to say someone is innocent or someone is guilty because no one really knows for sure. I was shocked to find out some of the really big names in baseball that have used peds and steriods in the past : David Ortiz, Jason Giambi, Jose Canseco, A-Rod, Andy Petitte, Sammy Sosa, and the list goes on and on. It is total BS to defend someone because they have a nice personality or is likable. As a professional athlete the standards are a lot higher than just the average citizen, that holds true for politicians and Hollywood stars so the BS about being innocent before being proven guilty DOES NOT HOLD WATER. Look at Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, and McGuire (until he admitted his usage). It is a totally different standard

                  it is new, its not a first but its still new since very few fighters have been part of it and not many fans know its even been done.

                  i dont remember were i heard about it, but i know it was done. its was a thing back then too with PEDs, holyfield put on all that muscle moving up to HW and tyson wanted him to get tested to make sure he was clean.

                  again whats new is making this thing mandatory, they have mandatory urine tests and mandatory HIV tests bot not blood tests. it has been done on occassion but it isnt part of every big fight, if it was it would be a new rules in the commissions. thats whats new about it, the method has been practised before on occassion.

                    Haters just get out the thread, Floyd is going to demand random drug testing and thats all to it!! Accept it and go on with your life. It was going to happen regardless anyway, dont get mad that Floyd is leading the charge. You just tell your Roid shooting Champion Pac that his PED days are limited.

                      SO the one who is leading the charge is the one who said I live for myself?
