why not put the pressure on the commissions?

[brick wall]

Maybe Floyd just wants to protect himself. Sure seems like it to me. Again, the testing is currently taking place for the biggest fight of the year. Why are we having this discussion again?

of course they need to do the testing for may 1...it's a big joke if they don't.

[pistol whip]

Ok cool. Maybe he just wants better testing for his fights. Now what?

The thing is who said it was better? Hair testing is even better than blood testing and fighter's can't exactly say "well hair testing will make me weak" now can they?


Notice how Floyds camp didn't suggest that when pacmans camp objected to the blood test and still stuck with the intrusive blood test.

Pacquiao's camp didn't object to the blood testing per se. They objected the randomness of the blood test.

backtracking...

So...they didn't backtrack. They did what they said they would do.

Now what.

Damn have you done the USADA testing before? Cause the 2 fighters currently taking the test haven't called the testing "INTRUSIVE". In fact one of them has even said that the testing isn't effecting his training camp imagine that

Floyd was perfectly content to go with what the USADA originally outlined. Pacquiao wasn't. To save the fight, Floyd tried to compromise.

Compromise? By compromising that essentially defeats the whole ***ing purpose dummy!! How is the USADA's drug testing policy supposed to be 100% efffective if it has to operate outside of it own protocol?


If Floyd was really that genuine about the drug testing then why compromise, why render the test essentially useless and still leave doubt.

yeah, shame on Floyd for going above and beyond to make this fight happen. He did too much, I agree. Now let's make a thread about the ****head who did everything to avoid being tested randomly.

One is the instigator so imagine if he did complain. He would be justifying what Manny has been saying all along so do you think Floyd is gonna complain?


And the second fighter is someone who has admitted to using steroids in the past. Imagine the ****t storm he would bring upon the fight if he complained or even refused to do anymore tests. He would jepordize a fight he's been wanting for a long time so I don't expect him for one second to complain either.


Plus neither fighter has actually steped in the ring either so you still have no idea how the testing is gonna effect the fighters come fight night.
