Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao: Roach Has a Drug Testing Solution

[switchsouthpaw]

I didn't state you were correct about tests. You are reading what you want to.

They have never agreed to random blood tests. If they had, we wouldn't be even having this conversation, would we? Maybe the word random is throwing you off.

Straight from boxingscene.com...

"In the recent edition of BoxingScene.com's Insider Notebook, Roach, who in the past refused to consider Mayweather's demand for random drug testing - has changed his position on the matter. Not only is Roach considering Mayweather's demand, he is willing to get closer to Mayweather's cut-off date for the random drug testing.

"We're at 24 days (for cut-off for blood-testing), they're at 14 days," Roach said to BoxingScene.com. "Is 17 days acceptable? I'm sure negotiations can be made somewhere along the line."

Comprehension is key....

Yes, lets talk reality,

Yeah let's do that.

Mayweather talks a lot of **** and contradicts himself when it comes to money and choice of opponents.

Pacquiao lies and contradicts himself when searching for a good reason to avoid testing.

Mayweather views Pacquiao as a threat, but not to the extent where he isn't willing to step inside the ring with him. I would have also made the same demands. Lets not act like it isn't rare to see fighters move up in weight and bring everything with them.

This here is a solid post sir.

So does Mayweather, we're not gonna deny this. But Pacquiao lied/ contradicted himself when it came to OSDT. Clearly not the same.

It really is and you have none.

Again, their idea of random blood testing is three tests; one around the initial presser, one with whatever cutoff date, and one immediately after.

For the last time...what is random about that? Because they changed the cutoff date doesn't make it random .

Well I'm glad to see Shane and Floyd testing themselves Saturday.

Shane has always tested himself and win,lose or draw he is respected for it, he was never the type of guy to look for the nearest exit. Where as your boy has been a welterweight since 2005 and funny enough, this is his first real test....

[IMDAZED]

solution to the impasse...have you forgot they can't make an agreement.
of course i'm all for reality...you think this is just a dream? reality is floyd demanded ost, pac said no and offered an explanation...or lies blah blah blah whatever you want to call it. does his so called "lies" made him su****ious to you or you already think that way when floyd sr started accusing him?

Pac didn't say no. He said yes. Then he wanted the USADA to conform to his protocol. When pressed for a reason, he lied and contradicted himself.

Are we clear?

[fcastro1]

why are u *****s still complaining, dont u want this fight to happen. u have 2 people that are at a disagreement so the way to resolve this is a compromise how hard is this to comprehend.

[brick wall]

I would have been skeptical; as I have always been of Pacquiao and keep things to myself.

well of course you can say that...you think the other floyd fans will do the same? shane already accepted ost and yet they still find time to bring up his previous peds use

[BoxingKnowledge]

i've been saying that all along..............

add 24 plus 14 and you get 38. divide 38 by 2 and you get 19 days. so i always though just avergae out the numbers and that can be your cut off date. so i'm with freddy on that one. 17 to 19 days is should be fine for both camps unless floyd just ***** out again..haha
