    The purpose of the USDA is to make sure FOR CERTAIN that there are no illegal substances being taken.. and if they knew FOR CERTAIN without testing 18 days before the fight.. why can't floyd accept a 14 day cutoff?

    They knew for certain floyd and shane weren't taking peds after 18 days RANDOM OR NOT, but 14 days isn't good enough for manny?

      18 days wasn't a cut off.

      For all both of them knew, they could have had a test everyday leading up to the fight. Thats the point of the tests til fight night, to pop up whenever they wish. If they (testers) stopped the tests 18 days before thats of no fault to Mayweather or Mosley.

      Both wouldav had to stay 'clean' from anything because it was random. The problem with a cut off is that the person knows it'll be the last test, so can go ahead and whack some PED's.

      If you dont get it now, i might just kill myself.

        Did Floyd know there was a cut-off date or didn't he?

          Not good enough.

          The purpose of the USDA isn't to appeal to the fighter's morales but to make sure that they don't have any illegal substances.

          That's why people fail drug tests all the time and face the consequences.

              How do you know what he was doing behind the scenes?

              And anyways that's not the point if he knew or not. The point is the USDA knew and didn't need more than 18 days.

                  I agree. But this statement has nothing to do with accepting a 14-day cutoff and the point you're trying to make on this thread. Those are two different things. The USADA doesn't follow the same protocol every time. However, the premise is the same: unannounced testing.

                    They didnt appeal to anything. There was no cut off date.

                    The Testers popped up randomly. During that period when they didnt come Im sure Floyd and Shane were thinking those bastards would show up any minute.

                    Its the threat of the test. Its to deter you.

                      So then what does your thread title have to do with anything?
