Has Chavez agreed to Martinez request "Random" testing yet?

[Atreyu Khalil]

I also remember something like Martinez saying he would fight him without the test a few months ago.
Chavez needs to be tested, he has created far too many questions with his recent drug tests, or lack of.

If I was Martinez I would push for testing for sure, but like you guys say, it's probably the perfect excuse for Arum and Chavez to get out of this fight. I still find it hard to believe Arum agreed to this fight so quickly with his track record of protecting and fighting in-house. Seems very risky.

Over at FH, Sergio says that the Nevada tests are enough, but he will request that CHAVEZ gloves get weighed

From what i have heard Martinez and DiBella have dropped the request because they think it will kill the fight. Now my question is why would a request like that kill the fight?

Look if Sergio Martinez thinks Chavez is on the juice then he should force Chavez to take the test.
Sergio gave in on testing demands for the $.

He deserves the ass whipping he's gonna get.

Long live El Dinero de Vaca

How the hell is Martinez going to demand anything from Chavez when he knows Chavez doesnt need him at all? Martinez knows he cant demand it so he just will take the chance and make a nice payday.

This fight should have stringent testing, weighing of gloves, and fight night weigh in.

The fight will have neither. Chavez Jr has some strong people representing him..

That just reinforces my point. Chavez doesn't need to take the test. Chavez is the test.

Chavez Jr "Breaking opponents integrity, will, faces, & bodies since 2006"

lol i see what u did there.

Anyone who fights Chavez needs to make him take a test...kid is over rated and he's a cheater.

Went from Clarke Kent to superman before our eyes.

I agree with this post, I mean along with failing a test, avoiding test and not weighing gloves his antics are very questionable

From what i have heard Martinez and DiBella have dropped the request because they think it will kill the fight. Now my question is why would a request like that kill the fight?

Rubio’s manager, Julio Gudino, explained:

When it came to our fight back in February for the title, Friday at the Rules Meeting the day before the fight, the Rules Meeting took place after the weigh-in in which Chavez showed up about 35-40 minutes late for the weigh-in. In the Rules Meeting, both the WBC Commissioner and ****ie Cole, the Athletic Commissioner for the State of Texas, announced that we would be doing a post-fight anti-doping test. The reason for the post-fight anti-doping test and not a pre-fight is so neither of the fighters could ingest anything during the fight that’s not allowed or illegal to consume in boxing. Everybody agreed to the post-fight anti-doping test.

Fast forward to fight night, everything is fine. We go into the fight and Chavez is rehydrated 23 pounds and fights a twelve round fight like a little bull. After the fight we basically go to our assigned State Inspector that’s there and ask him if somebody is coming to do the urine test because we wanted to get Marco back to the hotel and get dinner.

He asked, ‘What urine test?’

‘Well the anti-doping urine test that was ordered for the championship fight’.

He says, ‘Well you’re going to have to ask the other Inspector because I’m not aware of any drug test’.

So we go over to Chavez’s dressing room and ask the Inspector who’s there, and he says he doesn’t know anything about it. He told us to go and ask Greg Alvarez who was kind of the head Inspector there at the time. So we go and ask Greg, and he kind of looks at me and says that that’s the WBC’s responsibility. So from there we’re directed over to go speak to Jose Sulaiman.

We find him and we address him and ask about the anti-doping test. At that point Sulaiman says, ‘Well that’s not the WBC’s responsibility, you need to go see ****ie Cole, the Commissioner from Texas’.

At this point we could see there is an obvious runaround as to who’s doing what and who’s responsibility is what, and everybody’s just putting it back on each either. So then we find ****ie Cole and ask, and he says there’s not going to be a drug test. Obviously we’re as shocked as anyone.

We say, ‘What do you mean there’s not going to be a drug test?’

He told us we have to go talk to Jose Sulaiman, and we said no, Jose Sulaiman said we need to talk to you. Then right away he said, ‘We forgot to order the anti-doping test’.

We said, ‘What do you mean you forgot to order it? You’re the one with the WBC yesterday at the Rules Meeting who said that we were doing it. It’s the WBC rules for a title fight, and you the State Commission also ordered it and mandated it for the title fight’.

‘Well, we just forgot to order it!’

So we go back to Jose Sulaiman and ask what he’s going to do about this fight not having any anti-doping tests taken, being that Chavez has already been suspended prior to this event in 2010. So there was cause for su****ion.

So the WBC Commission, even though it’s against their rules, they said it was forgotten and there is nothing they can do, and that’s how it was left off.
