    Floyd is not bigger than the sport, no man is. If Floyd wants RDT he should appeal to the Commission ,not just try and lay down the law like he's the damn sheriff.

      Its a stipulation, just like catch weight demands, gloves demands, ring demands, etc... Commissions have a their own standards that boxers add to all the time.

        It's called CONTRACTS.


        Because there isn't one sanctioning body that rules over all the athletes. The athletes are their own franchise, look after themselves, do what they want. Some get managers, some manage themselves. They come to a table, agree on the stipulations and fight.

        You Floyd haters try to make it seem like the state commissions run the whole show, when in fact it doesn't. They just set the base rules and look over them. The boxers can add on to the rules if they want. (venue, glove size, catchweight, ring size etc.)

        They didn't come to terms. Let that **** go. NSAC, CSAC, TSAC etc. doesn't call the shots. The two individuals in the ring decide on what happens or not.

          if floyd submitted a request to the commission and votes passed for it, then why the f not?

          Floyd wants to clean up the sport, yet hes the one who shoots up chemicals on his hands. thats what i call a level playing field.

                Agreed, but its not *******s fault completely, *******s are used to Pac getting whatever he wants at the negotiation table. They see it as his way only, or your ducking. They didn't realize that the other guy can make demands to.

                  Those factors aren't as big as random blood testing right up until the fight, which Floyd says he now is not budging on....who does he think he is? Olympic blood testing has never been done before, that's something u should go to the Commission with...

                    Did Floyd and Shane go to the commission with it? If the answer to this is no then clearly that proves that the commission standards means nothing. Fighters decide, not commissions
