    The Texas Dept. of Licensing and Regulation won't be drug testing the boxers before and after their bout, a spokesman told the Daily News

    Most state commissions have boxers submit to only urine tests before and after a fight. The Texas agency doesn't even do that. Its executive director, William Kuntz, can order a drug screen for boxers if there is "good cause." But Susan Stanford, a public information officer for the department, doesn't envision that happening for this fight, even though Pacquiao has come under increased scrutiny of late over the issue of performance-enhancing drugs. "At the present time, no drug testing will be required of the boxers," she told The News Thursday. "We don't see rumors as good cause. There is a medical examination before the fight, but that doesn't include drug testing."

    Arum said he chose to stage the fight in Texas for the amenities, not the lack of drug testing. "I always assumed (that Texas) did drug testing, but I know for sure that the WBO insists on that," Arum said in a phone interview. "The reason the fight is in Texas is because it's in Cowboys Stadium, not because of the (lack of) drug testing."

    So Im assuming that was the physical last week that Texas did if So the Philippine news had it wrong about it also being Tested for PED's.

    The WBO will do one urine test after the fight though.
    The sudden intrest in fighting in Dallas has a new perspective.

    Im loving the spin of "Clotteys a real man he dont want any drug test" though.

    People must enjoy looking like complete idiots.

      He did fail the 144 catch weight!

        You really have to wonder what goes through their heads before they post.

          And he accepted the punishment, 300K per pound overweight as the contract stipulated. He gave JMM the 600K and JMM was ready to face the best in the world.

            I would have no issue with Floyd saying no to a 10 million per pound deal. That is dumb as hell also, so if he told TopRank/Team Pac to go **** themselves I would have no issues with it as well.

            As far as them agreeing to OST, the reason they backtracted was because they weren't fully aware of want Floyd wanted with his demands. They got the details on how things would go and they declined to subject Manny to them.
            how do u know that and what were the demands that made them refuse?what was the difference from when they agreed to ost to when they refused ost?

              let me rephrase that:Would you rather fight when you're 100% yes or no.
              didn't floyd fight castillo with a shoulder injury? didn't clottey and margarito fight eachother injured? i guess manny is not as tough as they are

                Do people on this website realize that every state has different set of rules when it comes to boxing? There are a number of states that don't drug test at all, Texas is one of them. So unless one of the organizations like WBO, WBA, etc. force drug tests (which they typically do for title fights most of the time) there aren't any drug tests, that includes Marquez vs Diaz, Diaz vs Paulie Malignaggi,etc etc, all fights in Texas (and other states).
                i remember the pac fans talkin bout floyd didn't wanna fight in dallas because he couldn't use painkillers,we know thats bull**** because apparently texas doesn't drug test you

                  Finally someone who remembered this interview. Everyone should actually listen to the quotes from Team Mayweather. Their intentions were always leading towards fighting Pacquiao and Mosley.

                    Team Pacquiao runs a very organized and detail-orientated training camp. Pac says he doesn't feel good for a day or so after getting blood drain. Whether you believe him or not, that has been his stance for a while. If you knew how they ran there training camp then you would know losing one day would be crucial and Roach didn't want that to happen. He has stated this and this has been their stance for a long time. I mean I could go into more details on how it would hurt Pac's camp and not Floyd's but you guys are gonna believe what you wanna believe so it's no point.
                    I'm starting to think u even blev the stuff u say LMAO

                      It was a scheduled test meaning they knew it was coming, could take a day off and work their training camp around it. That is completely different than someone just randomly coming in at anytime and pulling you outta your camp to get tested.
                      they dont pull u out, they poke him right then and there. So again wats the prob?
