What the hell are you smoking...*******.

Nanny wanted to be NOTIFIED when the test would happen.

18 days was as far as that juicing coward would go...7 days is a flat out fabrication.

Pac is dirtier than Jose Canseco's drawers.

For those that are bricks.... "In fact, it is the largest protein created by the Pituitary gland. GH has a half-life in the blood of approximately 17 to 45 minutes. Because of this, detecting GH in a drug screen is very hard."

Floyd might be using the drug testing as a way to duck Pac. I don't know, and I don't really care.

It is the era of performance enhancers in sport. It is not unreasonable to ask an athlete to take part in an international initiative to ensure safety and fair play. People can say what they want about "innocent until proven guilty," but there will never be guilt until there is real testing. When someone checks you for weapons before you enter a concert do you scream, "I'm innocent and refuse to be checked!" No, because everyone knows what's being done is completely fair and reasonable.

When Pac decided to dodge the testing the first time around for the fight, I lost a lot of faith in him as being a clean fighter. There is simply no good reason to demand a cut off date. None at all. None of the arguments in Pac's favour have ever presented a good reason for him not to participate. His reasons kept changing and the dates kept changing and then the fight fell apart. The second time around we were told he bent to all of Mayweather's demands and Mayweather ran away. This is obviously not true. Pac just fudged the dates a little more, but still fell short of accepting testing that is 100% fair.

Say what you want, but if this were football, baseball, soccer, cycling, the Olympics or some other major sport, Pac would be crucified, vilified and abandoned by the public. Since boxing is a second rate sport driven mostly by nationalism, people simply do not seem to care, or are burying their heads in the sand.

I'm sure we'll hear all of the same arguments: "Who does Mayweather think he is?!", "Pac will not bend to Mayweather's will!", "Why don't they just follow the rules in Nevada?!", "Mayweather thinks he's above the sport!"

To be honest, none of those arguments mean anything, and aren't really relevant to Pac's decision. Look at what Pac did, on its own, and you'll see it was a bad decision and puts his integrity in question. Pac was asked to step up to the plate and participate in a program that is fair, reasonable and better than what's currently in place. There isn't a single good reason for refusing, other than trying to avoid the testing itself. He refused and we shouldn't let him off the hook.

original question still unanswered?

when you go to the store and the price of a shirt is 20 dollars can you offer the guy like say at a store like macys 18 dollars and get the shirt? no you can't,floyd said no cutoff thats why 7 days is not good enough when floyd was willin to compromise the drug testin manny didn't want but then floyd beat shane and his stock went up now manny wants to try to compromise he should of compromised when floyd was willin to now that is out the window

Oxygen. Allows him to exert himself at a higher pace for a longer period of time. Endurance.

During the final week? Does anyone train the final week?
There is a test post-fight, so I would assume he can't be on that during fight night and a few days prior.

If you're going to allow testing up to the final week, why bother cutting off the testing at all?

Provide me with one good reason not to allow testing up to the day of the fight? There are none. How many thousands of athletes undergo this type of testing to participate in international sport? Cycling is maybe the ultimate endurance sport, and those guys undergo severe testing.
