Dear USADA,
I don't believe it's fair for a fighter to be subjected to a urine test within a certain time of the fight. Shane Mosley was tested April 26, 2010, while literally leaving Big Bear to drive to Las Vegas. Mosley was trying to dry out for the weigh in, and he probably had to drink a few pounds worth of water just to get your drone out of there.
Meanwhile, Floyd Mayweather was not tested during this time. Why should one fighter's dehydration process be completely interrupted while another fighter is not subjected to the same test? It doesn't seem fair. It's enough that the USADA agents stick around for up to 6 hours at a time. It just seems excessive for a fighter to have to deal with 10 of these in preparation for a fight. There are other distractions to deal with. Can't they schedule when they know fighters are easier to test? Don't they have phones to communicate? It's not like you can just get roids out your system at any time.
