Why request a 14 day cut off when...

[AllEyesOpen]

Well, if the issue is the cut off date and not knowing when exactly the testing will stop, how's this for a compromise; The USADA agrees to not test any closer then 14 days before the fight, UNLESS there are any strange results from the urine tests after said date

I find this better then a guarntee that there wont be any testsd at all.

Here was my thought on a compromise, and i thought it was a good one, It's just my opinion that if need be the USADA should be able to do further tests.

My question is, what use is it taking hgh two or three weeks before a fight when at that point in training, they are actually TONING DOWN THE TRAINING to prevent over training?

People kept on harping about how PEDS or HGH help in improving the fighter's performance by making him train harder and longer when within the time frame of three weeks before the fight, they are actually SLOWING DOWN THE TRAINING?

where's the logic of taking HGH there?

We already know that the USADA will stop testing well before that if there is no need to. May/Mosley had an 18 day cut off, except the fighter didn't know about, keeping the integrity of the random blood testing. So again, why the need for a guaranteed window, if you're clean and every test up until 3 weeks before the fight supports this, there will be no need to continue testing, but the option will be there in case any anomalies come up in the urine tests. This really shouldn't be an issue, at least IMHO and I still don't understand why it keeps coming up.

What if after the 14 day cut off something strange is found in the levels of the urine tests, for either Mayweather or Pacquiao, they would not be able to do further tests after this point and someone might end up having an unfair advantage, completely defeating the purpose of the testing even taking place.

If Pacquiao accepts taking USADA's testing,he can not tell them to cut off at a certain time...he either accepts USADA's terms,or we may not have a fight....

I wish Floyd would expose Arum's offer to the public,to let people know that Bob is playing games.As long as Manny has Arum around,they may not get the fight made.The only way it may happen is if Arum "milks" Manny with in-house fights and then lets him fight Floyd before he retires.....

If it's about performance, accept that they will stop the testing in time, at the time of their choice, and just do your job. Why would a clean fighter need to know without a doubt that he will not be tested for 14 days? If there's nothing suspect they wont continue. If there's no PED that can benefit them at this point, then why ask, just let the USADA run their program in a valid manner.
