    My question is why aren't any fans calling for OST for ANY other fights? Seems to me Floyd fans are concerned with Pac taking the test and thats it. Nobody talks about or cares if it happens in any other fights and nobody gave a crap before Floyd sr started slinging unfounded allegations. Make it official and Im all for it. But no fighter should be forced to do anything that isn't an official rule. Jmo.

              I don't oppose to it but it better be brought up by the commission and not some ***** like Floyd trying to get the upper hand in the fight itself. You *****s know damn well it's not about "cleaning the sport" he is only making it seem like that after the lawsuit. Before the lawsuit it wasn't about cleaning the sport up. Quit frontin you *****sexuals are fake as ****. Why no tests for Marquez? You dumb *****s. Floyd is a hater that's all it is. Y'all support a hater lol y'all probably snitch on your homeboy that's the characteristics you *****s are showin

                If you support better testing standards in boxing then how can you simultaneously support the NSAC stance with regard to this issue......given they don't care. Pac fans want to pretend they care about better standards and fighter safety.....but at the same time they want to hide behind a commission who doesn't and abide by their rules. The truth is they only care about one thing.....and that is Pacquiao.
                Problem is you are too sure of yourself when it comes to pac fans. Pac fan here and I don't care about Pacquiao that much compared to boxing. I want better testing but I want it thoroughly researched on pros and cons, what to look for, timing details, etc. It should be universal not biased. I will agree that Pac-Floyd would have been a great start. I don't support NSAC stance because IMO it is too self-serving(more like self preservation). This is also the reason I don't support Floyd that much outside of the ring because IMO he is also too self-serving.

                  Thats fine, and something I can respect. But do you see where Im coming from about no one calling for it for any other fights? Hell, Hopkins is 45 and still fighting at a top level and Roy Jones has tested positive before. Where is the outrage over no testing for that fight? Where was the outrage before My Sr started making allegations?

                    I agree to make it official if it's done independently by the proper boxing commission. Not dictated by some ignorant uneducated fighter(Mayweather) that looks like he should be slinging mud from a cage.

                      you just e-mailed them. Jeez. if you can spend all this time posting your sentiments about fighters safety. It seems its a big problem to you, i suggest, go find a better way to help.



                      With all do respect Tani, one fan can only do so much. An e-mail to any organization or state commission is about as much as you can do. If the outcry from fans is loud enough maybe the rule will eventually get passed. Till than I believe in following the rules set forth.
