    Floyd vs Mosley Olympic random blood testing. It is for real or just for show?

    We know steroid can be detected in urine sample and the HGH through random blood testing. What makes you think Mosley will be tested HGH positive through this Olympic random blood testing Floyd forced on him when these thousands of Olympic athletes who went through this did not? In fact, not even one!
    Floyd is this for real or just for show?
    The biggest fight in the history of boxing is in danger of not happening because Floyd Mayweather Jr. wants his opponent Manny Pacquiao to agree to random Olympic-style blood tests...

      Just to save Face for Floyd.


      But he's being noisy lately and this has exposed him more.

        A roided up Mosley is more dangerous than a roided up Pac. Of course the tests will be real.

          Mosley never tested positive on steroid. He admitted somehow using it before. Floyd demand this Olympic random blood testing for the purpose of HGH detection which is not reliable, useless and outdated if you compare this to NanotrapTM ESP Particles of today developed by Ceres Nanosciences funded by USADA.

            This is all show and posturing. They'll go thru with it, but it will be for Paquiao's benefit only.

              This whole Olympic-style drug testing is all a circus show!

              But don't take my word for it...


              Larry Holmes, Heavyweight Champion:

              I wish I could see Mayweather and Pacquiao fight, but what they're (Floyd's camp) doing right now is hurting boxing because people want to see the fight... They're trying to bring up stuff that is taking away from the fight with drug tests and accusations... I don't get it."


              Joe Goosen, Legendary Boxing Trainer:

              "I just think Pacquiao is a juggernaut right now... and I would just say that maybe that's the reason (Floyd's) throwing up all these smokescreens and roadblocks because he (Floyd) doesn't wanna get in the ring with him (Pac)... (Floyd) should just say yes to the fight, forget all the testing, this guy's (Pac) not on drugs. There's a little air there in all this that's just not right.


              Al Bernstein, Showtime Boxing Analyst:

              “It seems patently obvious to me that Floyd and his minions killed the Pacquiao fight. The bottom line is that the fight was basically a done deal before they decided to inject the demands for blood testing into the picture. Pure and simple, Golden Boy and Floyd and his advisers created the problem, and it ended up killing the fight.”


              Dan Rafael from ESPN:

              "Mayweather shouldn't be making accusations without a shred of proof as he tries to discredit all of Pacquiao's great accomplishments, nor should he try to circumvent the Nevada rules by asking for blood tests when the commission has never asked for them."


              Thomas Hauser, HBO.com:

              "There were times during the past month when the conduct of Team Mayweather had the look of an effort to sabotage the fight. A negotiator who wants to make a deal doesn’t go out of his way to antagonize and publicly embarrass the other side. But that’s what the Mayweathers and Golden Boy did."


              Jim Strickland, David Diaz's Trainer/retired licensed pharmacist:

              “I don’t see any reason of accusing Manny of using illegal drugs in our fight.”


              Timothy Bradley, WBO/WBC Jr. Welterweight Champion:

              "I don't think Manny is on anything. He's just on top of his game right now."


              James Toney, Multi division Champion:

              "Who is Mayweather to ask for the tests? Why didn’t he ask Marquez? Manny’s not on 'roids."


              Mike Silver, noted Boxing Historian:

              "I think it fell apart because basically Mayweather never wanted to fight Pacquiao. He wants to continue and fight guys he can beat and fool the public.


              Roy Jones, Jr.:

              "Hell naw. Why change the rules on me? Because I'm coming up in weight means I'm doing steroids? They're giving you a test for that anyway. It would be something that would aggravate me because then after I beat you, I was on something, don't play with me. Either you want to fight or you don't want to fight."

                Much of the boxing world knows that this is all a posturing circus show by the Mayweather camp. Only Floyd fans and Pac haters continue to make something out of all this nothing because they don't have anything else to rip Pac with.

                It's of little surprise as a result that 170 of the most respected Boxing Writers of America have overwhelmingly spoken on who the real deal is, which really says it all !

                  The thing that youre forgetting and what Travis Tygart always says is that you cant calculate the deterrent factor.

                  The bottom line is that if people know they are running more stringent test then they will be more scared to cheat so the chances of them failing the test are minimum but the chances of you having a fair fight is great. Floyd dont care about Shane or Pac failing the test. He just wants them not to cheat or if they do cheat then cut down on the amount of time they have to cheat.

                  With that being said, Tygart aknowledged that there are people every day trying to beat the system and there are genuis steroid guys out there who know ways to get around it but that doesnt mean that you shouldnt try to make it as difficult as possible. It will always be a rat race where the cheaters find tricks, then the testing starts catching them, and then the cheaters find new tricks again.

                  Still, dont understimate the deterrent factor, e****ally when you add in stars that got caught up in Balco, all the baseball players gone down, and all the track people. No one wants to be the next person to be blasted all over the news, e****ally if you are high profile like a Mosley or super high like a Pacquaio. With the uring testing people will still try but with blood testing people are less likely to take that risk and thats what Floyd wants way more than catching guys cheat. If you cheat then most likely you wont be caught until after the fight and then its too late to save Floyd. He wants to make you not want to do it from the jump or atleast cut down the time by alot

                    were the tests not on the table from the start? im sure i read it at the time whenbob said the deal was agreed, then they learnt more about what they wanted them to do, and started to kick up a fuss, not the other way round, people think floyd just brought it up last minute, when im sure iv heard oscar say it was on the table from the start. all these quotes refer to floyd changing the agreement. Or am i just wrong?
