    you are correct. we don't know the process of how the dates were chosen. a little transparency goes a long way.

    but we do know why the USADA choose to cut off the testing for wifebeater/mosley at 18 days is because they didn't want anyone blaming a bad performance on the drug testing. that is an arbitrary decision.

    But really, there wasn't an official cutoff.
    offically, no. but there was indeed a cut off.

    we're talking about a contractual decision to disallow testing during a certain time. Manny wants a 100% guarantee that he will not be tested the last week before the fight.
    right. but in the case of wifebeater/mosley, there was an arbitrary decision to disallow testing 18 days before the fight, instead of a contractual decision to disallow testing 7 days before the fight. so 7 days is still better than 18 days.

    The USADA retained their right to test at any time, so there was no cutoff.
    officially there wasn't, but in actuality there was a cut off day... 18 days.

    And as far as the fighters were concerned, the testing was not cutoff, because they had not been notified that they'd taken their final test.
    c'mon man, why would anyone take PEDs within a week before the fight?

    1) training camp is over
    2) the advantage of using a PED within a week of a fight is nil
    3) There still is urine testing all the way up to the fight
    4) the testers can still pop up at any moment day or night

          I just want this ****in fight to happen.
          18 days, 14 days, 7 days. IDFC!! It's Mayweather that started this ****storm and I say I blame HIM more so than Pac for this fight not to happen.

          Hell you know what? Just give them BOTH the same doses of PEDS and give Pac xylocaine (to make it fair since Floyd always fights with them) and put them in the ****in ring already!!
