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

[.PrettyBoy32.]

You think 3 f.uckwits with a combined IQ of 2 running around shooting their gobs about some mystery drugs that jungle soldiers used to use etc. is the right way to go about this?

If this really meant anything to Floyd,why not tackle it when he retired a few years back?
Contrary to a lot of posts on here,it wont lead to better testing,because as soon as either fighter retires,Floyd's 'campaign' will end.

It has brought the sport into disrepute by highlighting a problem that most probably isnt that prevelant within the sport as a whole,and the net result is making the wider public actually believe that its just another thing thats wrong with the sport,and sadly,Floyd pretty much represents everything that is wrong with the sport,which is what makes his drivel about wanting to clean up the sport so much harder to stomach.

Ha you got banned

I guess Floyd should have included it in his undercards since it his promotion and GBP who are working on it.

That is down to Goldenboy, they don't work for Mayweather

I never thought Id see the day when people who watch boxing are AGAINST OST's.

LOL you a funny dude... Don't even worry about responding (im getting out of school, and won't be on until late tonite)....

Alot of you cats are funny!!!

None of you, and I mean none of you gave a **** until your idol opened his mouth for just this fight (against Pac). Now he has to, HAS TO test every single fighter, or he will be made to look like an ass...Not one Floyd fan has found that fishy...Not one...And they call *******s sheep...

Anyway-

I'm all for it (OST), but some of you cats are a joke when it come to this topic...Really.

I really hate the one's that act as if they have suspected all along...There is one in particular...He should know who he is...

Well the boxing commissions are starting to agree aren't they?
Boxing is a dangerous sport and if anyone else pointed this out no one would care

Not necessarily...

The thing is PEDs and Enhancers aren't something that just popped out of nowhere. They've been in the sport for as long as many people here have been watching it. They can agree with Floyd all they want, but that doesn't mean any action is going to take place unless the right people are involved to actually make it happen.

One athlete isn't going to turn around an entire sport's testing protocol by telling the media he wants a clean sport. The 1st meeting he shouyld've had was with the NSAC prior to the contracts being signed for his fight whether it was Mosley, Pacquiao, or whomever. To me, it would make for a much more legit claim and it would put pressure on anyone who was denying tests in the 1st place. Until then, it's a testing protocol Floyd wants for HIS fights.

Is his main reason to help boxing? No, but its doing just that anyway.

word...hes gonna ride with it no matter what

whatever makes you look good huh

its pretty frustrating that people dont see it at all

Don't you think that maybe since it has been brought to the worlds attention now they are rethinking it?
And who brought it to the worlds attention again?
Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[j@yo-ako!]

Floyd don't care about boxing, he just want Money

I'm not sure that helping boxing was the original reason Mayweather asked for the tests in the first place (I think it was gamesmanship on his part to rattle Pacquiao) but tests like these are and will help boxing (and every sport) in the future. Boxing has always been one of the most corrupt and unorganized sports so these tests will help clean it up and give it more credibility. I hope blood testing is one day used by all sports to help monitor the use of illegal substances.

Yes, Good points my friend. I hope this is a step in the right direction for all sports. Not just boxing

He probably should have included it, but honestly how big of a deal is it that its not required for the undercard fights, that seems really reaching to me.
Especially since its not required by the NSAC, He'd have to get involved in all the contracts for the undercard fighters and all that. Then people would probably get all in a tizzy about him demanding other fighters that fight on the same card as him take OST, some would say that is stepping beyond his boundaries and that he's acting like a commission himself.

I think OST on the undercard is a double edged sword for floyd.

because he's a promoter and he really cares to clean up the sport. he should be trying to clean it up as a whole, not just per each of his fights, when it benefits him
