Comments Thread For: Goodman Questions Mayweather-Mosley Drug Testing Gap

[shogunn]

Exactly!!! Finally someone gets it, The problem is they might not even test 30days before the fight but they (USADA) have the power of showing up and requiring a sample at anytime... The whole point is to put a doubt in the athletes mind.

Having a cut-off date defeats that process, You cannot allow or let an athlete know when he isnt going to get tested.

no, the point is the USADA would rather have "random" in the athletes minds instead of actually testing.


The whole point of testing is to actually test. USADA didnt, because theyd rather play head games.

Did floyd or mosley take the magical PED that can only be detected by blood in the last 18 days? we dont know. All we have is the faith that is protected by the word "random"


USADA had the right to take blood and test, but they didnt. They were so adamant that they needed the right take blood anytime, yet they ended up taking more urine than blood.

Again, they were pushing blood that is very important and superior to a urine test, and actually ended up taking more urine instead. That is why Goodman found it fishy.

Random, is NOT having floyd out of their out of competition pool.

Floyd has to SCHEDULE random testing again for any upcoming fights. Very hypocritical of both USADA and floyd to push for this word they call "random" with him being out of their out of competition pool

"FRAUD" Mayweather makes his fans look like right mugs. Where the *****s at? lol

Is there any actual evidence that this was indeed the case?

My understanding is that the report was anecdotal and speculative, based on the information which was submitted to the commission. How are we to know about the nuts and bolts of the process, including whether there was a cutoff deal in place? All we have is dates on which the tests did occur. We don't have anything with which to analyze the system or methodologies employed, just the raw data of when tests did occur. Hence, the conclusion that things are "fishy." Not fraudulent, not indicative of foul play, but "fishy."

Now, here are the numbers, again.

Mayweather: Urine only on:
April 3, April 6, April 21, April 24.
(note: no record of Mayweather blood testing).

Mosely blood and urine on:
March 23, March 31, April 12
(note: three tests in 20 day span, the last coming 18 days before the fight).

Mosely urine only on:
April 3, April 6, April 21 and April 24.
(note: Mosely and Mayweather tested on precisely the same schedule)

Based on this data, Goodman concluded the procedure seemed "fishy."


Honestly, you guys should at least figure out what the hell it is you're trying to criticize before going off on your tirades.


And for the record, it's MD, not PhD. PhD is a Doctorate of Philosophy, MD of Medicine.

Firstly, What MD or PhD got to do with my post? and why the definition of it in your reply to my post?

Secondly, having a cut-off date is telling an athlete when you're going to stop testing, Having no cut-off date (Random) is when the athlete knows you have the power to test them at anytime so they wouldnt be able to risk getting caught by taking something they are not suppose to.

If its tru that USADA didnt test Mayweather and Mosley 18 days before the fight both fighter wouldnt know because they would think the USADA would show up at anytime....RAndom mate.

Thats the whole point of random testing, Deterring and catching cheaters.

floyd fans should stop pushing this word "random"

IF random were true, floyd would be randomly tested at any given moment right now, but he's not. He's not tested 24/365. he's only tested a month or so before the fight. Not random at all.

he's going to have to SCHEDULE random testing again. one more time you floyd fans say random, youll have to answer why floyd isnt in the out of competition pool.

[Duckweather]

all this criticism means is that USADA will go all out in the testing with pac and mayweather. they gonna drain all that blood up until fight night.

[Ray*]

Goodman is a name a trust. But quite frankly, all this is going to do is force the USADA to make the testing for Mayweather-Pacquiao that much more stringent.

Lmao, That what going to happen... If people want testing everyday up to the day of the fight then am sure the USADA would ajar to it. People are just looking for any excuse to critise the USADA and we all know why.

They are not tested out of competition dates, Thats entirely another tree that you are barking on..
