Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao Will Take The Tests, Not With USADA

[Vasyl’s dad]

Floyd.

Doesn't mean shyt though because he isn't doing the testing. He isn't in the lab looking at results. He gives the organization the money to run their tests on both fighters and that's it. It is called funding. Just because he funds something doesn't mean he is going to get any different treatment.

Do you know how sizzle **** you look because you think a valid drug testing agency is going to create false positives?

You need to start thinking for yourself. Even if you did, you would still probably agree with whatever comes from arum and/or pacquiao's ass.

So you're saying that Manny Pacquiao, should trust an agency paid for by the guy who accused him of using steroids?

Seriously?

[F l i c k e r]

This was never about testing with Manny. It was always about who calls the shots. Manny never wanted to agree to something that makes it look like Floyd controlled everything.

that's ******.

the agreed to 50/50 split even though floyd sells more.

pacquiao decided gloves and ring size.

floyd asks for drug testing.


how is this about who calls the shots? looks like a 2-1 swing in pacquiao's favor if pacquiao doesn't do peds.

Noooooo. I'm hoping he gets his old inactive ass in the ring with Pac and gets demolished like Floyd Sr knows will happen. But Roger and Pops both said Floyd isn't fighting Pac after Ortiz, needs more tuneups. And Khan already spilled the beans on Floyd's 2012 plans.

There are no issues left towards making the Pac-Floyd fight, but I'm expecting to hear how the defamation trial is stopping the fight (despite it not stopping the Ortiz sparring match) or how fighting Pacquiao would somehow not make sense because of too much taxes. It's like a ***** christmas, the duck is a mystery, wrapped and bowed sitting under the tree, waiting to be opened.

Can't wait to see what it'll be this time

What does mannys suit against Floyd have to do with Floyd fighting ortiz?

Manny doesnt bring anything to the ring to demolish Floyd.

Floyd is not the one ducking, Arum and manny, Arum is finally ready to cash in the manny money train

he doesn't own the testing organization, he doesn't run the tests, he isn't drawing blood, he isn't looking at results, he isn't handling test samples, he doesn't even work for the organization.

so, what does it matter?

"oh he paid for it, that's why." that is what you are saying, ****** shyt.

so funny but full of logic

If you can't see the conflict in the matter, then you're pretty dumb.

Just so y'all *****s know... If Floyd refuses this... Ain't no *****s, including fighthype, can talk floyd out of this **** storm that is coming for him if he refuses.. If Floyd thought he was being chastised before, this will legitimize everything that has been said about him. Time for *****s to get on the ball and call their hero out as well. Ball is definitely in Floyd's court more then ever now....

OK.. So now you have three organizations who have NEVER run a testing regimen performing the tests.

You realize that neither NSAC, nor WADA, nor IOC have EVER run a testing program.... right?

USADA can't "punish" a boxer. You're right. But you can write any clause you want into the contract. the way that Mayweather and Mosley did. If someone tested positive, the fight would be canceled. And the results would be publicized.

NSAC just got funding from the Nevada Senate to run a random testing program and Keith Kizer said they are taking random samples starting this month. So if the Pac-FLoyd fight happens (and it won't) by that time they would've run the program for close to a year and WADA may not conduct the testing personally, they do ensure that whatever organization conducts the tests is in compliance with their/IOC's code and standards.

And if Mayweather or Mosley had failed a test, it wouldn't have affected their status as professional boxers in the least. Shane Mosley admitted under oath that he took PEDs yet he didn't lose his license, he wasn't suspended, wasn't even fined. Same thing would've happened had he failed a USADA test- his reputation would take a (further) hit but beyond that- nothing. Nevada or any other state commission wouldn't have banned, stripped, suspended, fined, etc him. He might not have gotten to fight Floyd, but his career would've continued on like it did after the BALCO fiasco. USADA has absolutely no authority or jurisdiction in pro boxing.

But if NSAC is running the tests and a fighter fails, he'd be subject to more than just a bad name in the press. They have the authority and jurisdiction and can hand out punishments that fighters would have to abide by whether that's a 6 month suspension, being stripped of championships, a ban, large fine, etc.

Makes PERFECT sense to run the tests through an organization that can actually reprimand boxers for a failed test, wouldn't you agree?

[The Gambler1981]

They make more money off the USOC and they do bust Olympic athletes so I fail to see why this is in question.

Seriously?

i will not trust also an agency under the payroll of a guy who accused him of taking ped....
