    But what difference does it make?

    All that will happen is that the urine sample that B-Hop is submitting will have a couple of extra tests.

    He doesn't need to do anything different than he's going to do anyway. This is much easier than the OST that Wlad agreed to.

    Why not agree to it?

          He could be trying to hide something but its probably just pride.

          It's a "I don't have to do what you want me to do" thing.

            Honestly, if someone demanded that I take a PED test and it wasn't in my contract to begin with I would also tell them to **** off. You don't tell me what I need to be doing...

              I don't think he is "AFRAID", Pascal is a DUMBA$$ for not putting it into the contract you can't just sign the contract then at the Press Conference demand a Drug Test lol

                If Hopkins does win and become the oldest champion ever, there will always be some doubt as to whether he cheated of not.

                So he should just agree his urine can be given a couple of extra tests.

                If he's clean, it should be no big deal.

                  even if that's all it is, if it's not in the contract bhop shouldn't give in to pascals demands. Hell, if I were hopkins I would absolutely LOVE to have pascal have that doubt in the back of his mind that he may be on roids come fight night. That would be a big mental advantage, imo.

                    It's quite simple. The same reason Manny Pacquiao doesn't want to. Because it would mean he is bending in negotiations to the other side.

                    Neither has failed a test. Neither has to do anything. All there is to it. The moment they do something wrong is the moment they should be looked at as criminals. Until then, they aren't on probation and they don't have to pass any extra tests.

                    Get over it, people. Some people are just gifted athletes.
