Its not me or you that has to get in the ring with them, but there opponent. FLoyd felt that Manny was taking enhancements, its not your job to tell floyd rather he is right or wrong to ask for testing....Manny refused to test and came back 6 months later saying he agrees....something dont fit right with that..
    I agree, May has every right to ask, and in his case demanded even though his demands were above and beyond the current boxing rules. But Manny never refused testing. He always complied with urine testing anytime before the fight, and blood testing after the fight. He simply asked for a week's grace period for the blood testing before the fight, so that his body can fully recover. Later on, he even decided to drop this condition as well so that the fight can push through, but alas, we know the rest of the story.

      they are using. That goes for EVERYONE not only Manny Pacquiao.
      The thing is that, the whole fight everybody wanted to see was held
      up and probably never will happen because of random blood testing?
      That should be a walk in the park for Pac, considering how strong
      and great of a fighter he is, right? Dude trains intensively but he
      can't bring himself to give blood because it mentally weakens him?
      I don't know for sure if he is cheating until it is revealed but he is
      looking suspect and that shouldn't be denied.

          We should all be able to have our own "cutoff dates" for any drug tests breathalyzers etc in jobs or anything for that matter. The honest Congroidsman said so.

            Good idea, I want a cut-off date for breathalyzer's.....
            ..... they should not be able to breathalyze me within 3 hours of leaving a bar.
