    Until the commision makes it mandatory for all fights, all I care about is good competitive matchups. Were were all the OSDT advocates before Floyd brought this topic up?

      Plus, I don't care about *****s or *******s or whatever they call themselves...What I care about is the fact that this was a non-issue in those sports until they started getting caught. When Sammy and McGwire "saved" baseball they were getting praised from the fans and media and even the steroids issue was being put on the backburner. Everything they did for the sport was nice and great to watch but when you look back at it, it's a black eye to the integrity of the sport and the players that go through all the minor league systems just to get that opportunity.

      Again, I'm not saying Manny is on anything. I give him full credit for his accomplishments. But I also think Manny fans should stop saying Floyd's using it as a cop-out because this type of testing would be great for boxing. In my opinion of course.
      Great post.

          Actually some of us have been b!tching since Shane said he was on balco and Toney tested positive. Obviously the issue is bigger now because it involves the 2 biggest draws in boxing right now.

          We all want good competitive fights. Some just want godd CLEAN competitive fights more.

            Sadly but most Mayweather fans would rather not see the Pac vs Flyod happening, if Flyod wish is not granted.

                Would you rather baseball not clean up the sport and continue to allow juicers like McGwire, Sosa, and Bonds to rule the sport?

                The honesty and integrity of the sport is part of the standing of the sport. It's not just the cash registers.

                  ugh thats not even relevent here.

                  How would you like it if one baseball player held up the ***ing world series till all the players on the opposing team took a test of his choosing even though the commissioner of baseball said that the test was unecessary.

                    That couldn't happen in baseball. Just like an athlete couldn't refuse a test in baseball.

                    The only person holding up the fight is the guy who can't decide how much time he needs between test and fight.

                      I am a fan of clean boxing. Only way to be sure of that is with testing. Your poll provides no real answer. It's a straw man, aka a fallacy.
