POVETKIN is ***** just like Fraud Jr. is!!!

this sport of boxing is becoming a ****ing joke.

either all commissions in boxing legislate full Blood and Urine test. Or stay as they are and not let boxers negotiate their own demands of extra test.

I ain't mad at Floyd here can't blame the guy for being a opportunist. Mostly mad at many boxing commissions around the world that let this **** get out of hand.

Get your house in order for **** sake.

That's one of the problems with boxing. In other sports, you have a union, and a set of rules that you go by. Players are employees of the league.

Boxing has different commissions all over. Texas didn't drug test for Pacquiao-Clottey, Nevada allows that numbing drug that Mayweather uses that other commissions don't, certain states allow certain things and others don't. Fights on Indian reservations tend to be lenient (but sometimes state commission members who work it will face consequences by the commission).

Then you get the big-name fighters who are able to demand certain things and get it, because of the leverage they have. And the higher ups in the commission are probably thinking about how much money the fight will generate, not how unfair it might be.

nothing wrong with that, its good for the sport, and lets not all forget vit is former juicer, he was dqed in the olympics for juicing.

vitali is not wlad...though

you cant say someones juicing, cause there brother was caught before.......

[IMDAZED]

why?

boxing is all about the name and money.

you know that.

been like that forever.

the big name , big money guys can always ask for things.

the no name , small money guys can't.

it's like that outside the boxing world too.

We're talking about random drug testing for both fighters. While I agree with you, it doesn't make it right. And I would support what's right.

No its not, the drug-tests are good as is. Boxers constantly get caught with the current system.

That doesn't mean it can't improve. Some guys get caught, but how many others still use and don't get caught? No way to tell, but I'd guess there's a good number.

Nevada has pretty strict drug testing as far as boxing goes, and I'll take the word of some people who have plenty of experience with the NSAC and drug testing.

the commissions and orgs all need to put an end to this.

they either need to say "the current testing is good enough and no fighter can request extra testing" or they need to say "we need random blood testing and will implement it as good as we can for all fights or certain fights."

boxing needs to get its **** together. don't know if it ever will.

it's really bad for the sport all this madness. It's like boxing is becoming WWE wrestling, its awful.

**** can you imagine other golfers asking for Tiger to be blood tested. Other tennis player refusing to play Federer and wants more test on him before they serve. wtf.

this is boxing now and it's turning to ****.

Can you imagine Tiger saying he'll take any test, agreeing to testing than making up lies/excuses as to why he can no longer do it?
