  • Do you think Mayweather is helping Boxing, asking for these tests?

    I for one do think that there should be more vigorous testing in the sport,
    To be honest I didn't even realize how l lean boxing commission where on this matter until Floyd has brought it up!

    I like the idea of not just vigorous blood testing but all round testing and major penalties handed out e.g. Anthonio Margartio should of got a least a two year ban or Even suspended from the sport......
    He is lucky he didn't get locked up and got off lightly in my opinion!

    While I may not entirely agree with Mayweather’s motives for demanding the USADA protocol in his negotiations with Manny Pacquiao, he and Shane Mosley have both agreed to the same stringent request. In fact, by putting the heat on Pacquiao, Floyd may have inadvertently (or intentionally) just done boxing the biggest favor in recent years.

    By instating this vigorous testing protocol for a match-up which will be heavily promoted, publicized, and viewed, he will put his new regime center-stage for the world to judge. And who doesn’t support clean boxing for all parties involved? Boxing is a dangerous sport; people can die inside the ring; boxers often starve themselves of nutrients in order to make weight; and nobody wants a juiced up opponent knocking the life out of his opponent.

    If things go the way I think they are going to go (there are already rumors of the Boxing Commissions considering rule changes in their drug-testing protocols as early as this September), then Floyd Mayweather will have single-handedly transformed the landscape of boxing as we know it.

    I think none the less whether this fight happens I do think Floyd Mayweather Jr. (Hate him or love him) deserves a lot of credit for exposing this weakness in the sport of boxing, in which we all love so much.

      Anyone who said no on the poll is a *******.. Simple as that! How could random drug testing which would eliminate any and all use of PED's/drugs by fighters not be helpful to the sport? Can anyone really be that ignorant to say something so f ucking ******?

        It was just to protect himself and Kill the fight...Otherwise he wouldve at least attempted to have all his undercards to undergo the test.

          Absolutely it was probably dumb of me to add a poll as they will all vote no with there hundred of alt accounts

          End of the day it just shows they don't care about boxing and know nothing about it, They only like Manny Pacquiao and couldn't give a **** about the sport

          What Floyd Mayweather Jr. has done is a great thing

            Floyd cannot force another fighter to sign anything, only if it's his opponent... The same reason that none of the fighters on his undercard are taking the test, is the same reason Pac didnt take it, because they arent Floyd's opponent. And also, just stating the obvious, Pac is on PED's, hence, the reason he will not take the OST

                Maybe they could off too? Negotiations never got that far, so who was to know?

                    Never thought about that Larry, and didn't Manny say "I would love to fight in Dallas again?" I wonder why?
