Comments Thread For: Arum: We Would Use WADA For Mayweather-Pacquiao

[Deevel916]

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."

Yeah, that's what you call calling someone's bluff. What was Team Pacquiao's response to that? Same ****, different day.

Arum's out of excuses so he's rehashing the old ones.

Stand and Test

Floyd, all you need to do is take the stand and then take the WADA test. That's all you need to do. Don't reaffirm your "chicken Floyd" nickname by making excuses again.

Yea..I'm waiting for that response.

, I almost feel for the guy.

A) On Saturday, Mayweather stance has moved off of USADA, B) 3 of the 4 parts of testing has been agreed to, C) now it is a matter of getting the agency down, one that can contract for testing outside the US. It is obvious this fight is more than just inching forward. Better hope Ortiz and Marquez don't spoil the party.

Bob Arum exposed the truth....

USADA abides by WADA standards. They are one of the same. What this really tells us is that Bob Arum and Pac NEVER EVER EVER EVER agreed to ANY of the testing from the get go..... or else why is USADA standards NOW all of a sudden an issue but not in the first or the so called "2nd" round of negations.

Sorry pacterds, Bob and Pac have been ducking since day one and Pacs the one that used the words "scared".... lol

Bob Arum exposed the truth.... Konc even confirmed that they never agreed to full random blood testing...

USADA abides by WADA, Bob is just trying to DUCK yet again, even the Pacterds cant deny that shyt.... even the ******ed ones.

The ball as always is in Pacs court. TIME TO AGREE TO TESTING......

[richardt]

Wess, don't be a fool. Did you NOT read that Mayweather on Saturday backed off of USADA and other items of testing were agreed to a while back????

[tangalog2200]

bob arum's a scumbag......first pacquiao would never take a random blood test because he was afraid of needles......then pacquiao would take the test but needed a "28 day cut off period"......then it 14 day cut off period.....and when that backfired he's like "ok now we agreed to everything"......and then when that lie got exposed now he's like "ok now we really agree to everything,.... but only only if wada does the testing".....and there's still questions about why real boxing fans think pacquiao's dirty. at the very least he's guilty by association. bob arum isn't just a scumbag and a cretin, he also pond scum and when you jump into pond scum, some of it sticks

"guilty by association"

that is a very sweeping statement........

if such is the case, then you can hardly find any one who is a saint....

you are like saying all who have associated with tr, gbp, don king, pbf sr., 50c are likewise all guilty..........boxers, trainers, sponsors, media men, etc., ctc...

i don't think that is the reality....
