    It's pretty simple. It's negotiating tactics. It's the same reason that Mayweather asked Manny Pacquiao to take extra tests.

    Sure, Mayweather has never missed a 147 pound weigh in. But.. Manny has never failed a drug test, either.

    Sure, You could make a claim that Manny LOOKS like he COULD be on some type of substance. But, with Mayweather failing to make weight, you could JUST AS EASILY make a case for Mayweather finding advantages with not trying as hard to make the proper weight.

    They both know that both are likely clean and both are going to make weight. They are simply using this as a way to get under the skin of the other. Dumb, but that's business.

      FLOYD NEVER ASKED FOR RANDOM DRUG TESTING FOR THESE FIGHTS, AND NEVER EVEN MENTIONED "PED"

      then comes manny pacquiao,

      Floyd- "oh my god, this guy is actully a good fighter, there is no way he can be anywhere near my skill.. hes a fake, he must be on steroids.."

      then comes floyd asking for random testing... WHAT HYPOCRISY... never did floyd ask for drug testing in his prior fights before negotiations with pacquiao.. and floyd stans really didn't even care about the issue, until the whole thing with pacquiao.. that is pathetic..

        I'm not a mayweather or PAC fan. There good no doubt about that.. I just want a fair fight.. I was shocked that manny wouldn't take the test.. From there on I started to question him.. That's just me

                  why didn't floyd demand drug test for Miguel Mellow

                  or Hector Arroyo

                  or

                  Reggie Sanders

                  HUH WHY NOT....
                  Could be the same reason Manny didn't ask Ippo Gala or Armondo Rocil to pay $10MM per pound over weight.

                  And if I recall correctly, Manny's side asked for the weight penalty before the drug testing request.
