The only person reaching here and nitpicking is arum, you have to understand what the WADA means and does before supporting what Arum just said, because Arum promotes Pac doesnt mean you should follow everything he says.. -

Mayweather changed his stance Saturday, moving off the hard line he had taken on using USADA as the testing agency.
"We are OK to move off USADA," Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, who is representing Mayweather, told ESPN.com. "What we're saying, and what is important to us, is four things -- that the tests be random, that they include blood and urine and the time frame, meaning when do you stop the tests before the fight but know they will still be effective. Three of them we have agreed on -- random, blood and urine. So now it is a matter of the two sides working out the specifics of the cutoff date to assure it will still be effective."
Schaefer said those talks are taking place between Bruce Binkow, a high-level Golden Boy executive, and Todd duBoef, the president of Top Rank, Pacquiao's promoter.
"Todd and Bruce are trying to work out the specifics of the cutoff to assure the tests are still effective because we know that 30 days before is not effective," Schaefer said. "At 30 days, we might as well not even do it. We want to figure it out [the cutoff window] and I will give my recommendation to Team Mayweather, and they will be on board. USADA is the most recognized one, but if it's another one, like the Nevada commission, we don't really care. I don't care who performs the tests as long as they are performed. That's our position. If this fight doesn't happen it's not because of Team Mayweather."

So unless Floyd/GBP move the goal posts inexplicably again... what's the problem?
They got the random, unlimited testing that's supposedly prevented Floyd from fighting Pacquiao (
). So let the commission, aka the organization that has authority over the match, conduct the testing with WADA overseeing them. Problem solved.

Prince,
If you were assigned to be the mediator, what organization would you select?Comment

Why is it so hard for people to understand that?
Why would Manny agree to be tested by an agency hired by his american opponent who has accused him of cheating?
Its not as if the USADA is doing testing in other fights. They're only doing it for Floyds fights. I'd be skeptical too and also ask for a third party.
Why are Floyd stans so against actual testing done by an actual Olympic agency?
Answer, because they're also against actual random testing.
They support the random "style", which isn't really random at all,
but have huge problems with year round testing. Not a secret why.

Manny isn't an american citizen. Floyd is.Originally posted by sapo1 View Post
Why not just use an agency that isn't from the u.s., or the Phillippines?
Floyd is getting his random testing is he not?
Or does everything have to be according to what Floyd dictates?
Apparently so.Comment

The Nevada commission with WADA/IOC overseeing the testing regime. Makes perfect sense since they are the ones who sanction fights and have the authority to ban/punish/etc fighters if they fail a test. What the hell can USADA do to a fighter who failed a test? This was Arum's point.Originally posted by Gino Ros View Post
USADA has no jurisdiction in Pro Boxing, if a pro boxer fails are they going to ban them from Olympic competition? They can't do ****. Nevada can because they have actual authority whereas USADA just handles testing for the Floyd Mayweather Boxing Association and has no power or authority.Comment

There is always something not right for this fight, and then on fight night BOOM, the fight is over in the first minute of the first round.. ZzZzZzZzZZZZZzzzzzzComment

floyd has manny connection in USADA as he was able to manipulate his testing against Mosley by ending the testing too earlier, on the 19th day out....so what happened from the 18th leading to the fight...nobody knows...since floyd has connection inside the USADA, he might instruct his insider to exchange his roided blood with PACMAN....just a possibilities...Floyd is an american and USADA might lean on him by planning a bad plan...so WADA a neutral agency is preferred to remove all this doubt out....Comment

There is no such thing as a neutral drug testing organization you dumbfucks. It doesn't matter if it is american based or not. They are still testing for drugs. You ****** mothafuckers, talking about neutral organizations. Dumb pieces of shyt.
if Floyd is okay with another organization doing it, then whatever. if not, then pacjuice needs to go along with it if he wants to fight.Comment

The only problem is that a bunch of midgets keep yelling out "WADA" when WADA does NOT perform drug testing. WADA is like the Federal Department of Education. They set standards, but they don't actually run the schools. Get that?
And guess who this holy, anointed and heavenly "WADA" entrusts to do the testing? That's right... USADA.
Guess which organization has the greatest global influence on WADA? That's right...USADA.
Now, explain to me how I'm wrong. I'm listening.Comment
