    Like I have been saying, as a longtime fan of Andre Ward, it's upsetting that he has yet to do the testing. And to me, it has nothing to do with his opponent. Ward has been an advocate for better testing since the Super 6 tourney and has yet to do it. Again, that is upsetting.

    Also, I think it is hilarious that Jordan has a "phobia" of snakes. When his company has made shoes with snake skin on them. Prime example below.

      It is a publicity stunt by Rodriguez. Drug testing doesn't suddenly just slip your mind then occur to you after all the stuff is signed. Ward has no obligation to submit to any of his demands this late.

        "Ask Triple G if he wants it."

        Damn, that was a nice response. I would still love to see him agree to that home at home offer from Stevenson of he's serious about moving up

          but new information can warrant a drug test.

          But ward just wants to be a cheater. All these so called "slick boxers" cant **** and still have to use some form of PED's just to compete lol. Its funny to me.

            Having done no testing up until this point is flakey. He says he's had to wake up to stuff this year, and just didn't do it in this fight cos the other camp didn't insist on it?

            That doesn't cover it. Testing has been more common place for some years now. There's been some years you could have at least had some tests yourself and you haven't, nor have you explained or taken any responsibility for that at best oversight.

            I just don't get why someone would not get tested for so long, I don't believe a pretty clever guy such as Andre wouldn't realise he should do it a bit even just to cover his own back cos it'd bring him into a bad light if he didn't.

              That part doesn't matter to me concerning Ward and drug testing. My issue is that he has been an advocate for better testing since 2010 when it first become a hot issue. Did interviews saying that he would do it and everything. And 3 years later, he hasn't. That's MY issue with the whole thing. Literally NO reason to NOT do testing in this day in time...unless of course... and if that's the case with him, that sucks as a fan!

                If you refuse, you're a cheat, that simple. Just like Pacroid

                  It's not just a publicity stunt, because Rodriguez is doing the testing regardless and is signed up for the year-round random testing deal. Clearly, he cares and is willing to do it whether his opponent is or not.

                  And it is Ward's obligation to do testing when he runs off at the mouth about having no problem with testing, and went so far during the Super Six as to say he wants to lead the way in implementing Olympic style drug testing. You can't say stuff like that, do absolutely no blood testing in the time since, and not look like an awful liar.

                    Ward is clearly on PEDs because he is a top fighter and many people dont like him, his style and his fans. I mean, who needs proof?
