Comments Thread For: Khan Has No Problem With Mayweather's Test Demands

[Toyman]

I could have sworn Kizer said that anyone can peitition the commission at anytime for anything they'd like.

So apparently they ARE waiting for Daddy Mayweather's blessing? They can only move when Mayweather tells them they can move, huh?

No, they can petition whenever they want to.

However, his refusal to join the petition himself clearly means there is no point in them doing it either.

Really? So you don't think that if both companies filed a joint petition to the commission about additional testing that it would put even more pressure on Mayweather?

Or is it that neither person is really concerned with additional testing to begin with?

Its a little fish you could say, that is easy to say. But the gods honest truth is i dont like having my blood taken as well. I badly want a cholesterol test but im worried about taking blood.

Pacs probably been tested more than anyone else. It just isnt a nice thing to do, but for 40 million of course i would take one.

you have to give blood test to be a boxer period.. hiv, etc etc etc.. pacroid is a clown, a liar, a fraud, and a joke. and his fanbase is no better

Mosley took the test.
Ortiz took the test.
Martinez is willing to take the test.
Khan is willing to take the test.
Bradley is willing to take the test.
Ward is willing to take the test.
Donaire is willing to take the test.

The list goes on and on.

Why cant Pacquaio.

Errrrrr....
Ummm....
ErRrrrrRRrrrr he doesn't like needles.

sticking to the subject.
Khan will get embarrassed if he fights Floyd next- another Ricky Hatton repeat IMO. But it probably will get made coz the business aspects of this is still very lucrative and both fighters will get paid well.

Which is why, as i said earlier:


If mayweather refused to petition the NSAC

do you think if they went ahead with it and petitioned anyway, and NSAC agreed

that he would accept it, even though he had just refused?

hmmm, Mosley, Ortiz did it. Marquez and Kahn would do it . . . but Manny wont? Not even for the biggest pay day of his career?

Yup, it's all just one big conspiracy to make it look like Floyd is running scared but in reality he's dying to make this fight happen and Pacquiao is ducking him

Kizer's revelation really puts things in perspective. Everything these guys said becomes clearer now...

Schaefer:

"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.

...

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".

De La Hoya:

"Up until now, it’s been a very difficult negotiation process for various reasons but right now we’re very close,” De La Hoya said in Spanish and translated by fight scribe John Chavez of boxingtruth.com.

“I think right now we are very, very close in finalizing the contracts. I can’t talk right now in detail about the negotiations but I will say that we are very close,” added De La Hoya.

Ross Greenburg, HBO:

In late July, following the second round of failed negotiations for a Floyd
Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao clash, HBO Sports President Ross
Greenburg acknowledged that he acted as a mediator between Pacquiao's
promoter Bob Arum, Top Rank Promotions' CEO, and Mayweather's manager, Al
Haymon, even as Golden Boy Promotions' president, Oscar De La Hoya, and
Mayweather's adviser, Leonard Ellerbe, had denied that negotiations took place.

According to Greenburg, the fight was close to being made during both rounds of negotiations. The second time around, Mayweather turned the fight down without reason. To date, Greenburg was never provided with an explanation from Mayweather or his handlers.

"Both times, the fight was very close to being made. And, the second time around, you know, all that I can say is that you would have to ask Floyd Mayweather why the fight wasn't made. To this day, I really don't know why Floyd decided that he didn't want the fight any more in the fall," Greenburg said.

"To this day, I don't know why he wanted to take some more time off. Only Floyd has that answer. I certainly don't have that answer. But, you know, it was very close. It was so, so, close. I think that it was so close that I don't think that it's going to take much to make the fight the third time around."

Looks like everybody was ready to rock and roll. Top Rank, Golden Boy, Pacquiao, and HBO were all on board. Everything had been agreed to. Only one little problem...

I don't see what that question has to do with what I just asked. You're completely ignoring what I asked and trying to shift attention to Mayweather. I'll answer your question once you answer mine.

you asked if it puts more pressure on him...?


ya i gues it would put more pressure on him although he still wouldnt sign it


Now you can answer this:

If mayweather refused to petition the NSAC

do you think if they went ahead with it and petitioned anyway, and NSAC agreed

that he would accept it, even though he had just refused?
