Why didn't Pacquiao agree to extra testing?

    Before the last camp, there were accusations about [Pacquiao], people saying things, and we didn’t care. We never brought it up. For this fight, all of a sudden they are attacking me. I say we do [a blood test] now,” he added.

    Yet despite all that they didn't do stricter drug testing.

    To be fair I don't know if Manny was the one who turned it down or if it was Bob Arum. But turn it down they did.
    None of that really supports your implications. You're just adding fuel to the "Marquez was juiced" fire by doing exactly what you criticize others of doing and pissing them off in retaliation for their threads (which there will be more of due to this). Wish you all would just chill with this bickering ****.

      that kind of defeats the purpose of wanting testing doesnt it?

      Why not just test one 100 meter runner and let the other 6 or 7 not be tested, makes sense to me..NOT

        do you know for a fact that was the reason that fight didnt happen and do you know for a fact they asked for a test after he lost? if so please post link, or stop spreading your bias agenda having lies.

          and that's exactly what's going on in boxing right now. The only person being tested year round with real OSDT is Nonito Donaire. What are all the other boxers doing?

              It shows that stricter testing was suggested by both Roach and Marquez. But stricter testing didn't happen.

              My question is why? Manny certainly was in a position to insist on it.

                Roach said it was shot down by Arum, meaning he wouldn't pay for it. If i remember correctly Arum denied it though.

                  Still sounds like you're bickering with the Packsters, and with a weak argument at that. Why isn't anyone in boxing doing extra testing outside of Donaire? You're acting as if extra testing is the norm. No one is fooled. By all means, promote extra testing. But don't troll Pac fans, acting as if something odd is going on.

                    I found the Arum quote. Seemed like he would only do testing inside the commission not vada,wada.

                    "Nobody suggested drug testing on either side
                    until the issue came up this week. Because if
                    the fighters had wanted drug testing I
                    would've given the issue to the commission
                    provided the commission would fund and the
                    commission would've run pre-fight blood and
                    urine tests. But nobody asked me."

                      Don't forget that Mayweather also does testing above and beyond what the commissions require. Even if it's not 365 days a year like Nonito.

                      But that's besides the point. If Pac's camp was so su****ious of JMM before the fight, and especially so after the fight, why didn't they take him up on the offer to do more testing?
