No drug testing kovalev-pascal

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Pascal offered to pay and Kathy, god bless her soul, offered him a cheaper option. Pascal turned it down.

You still want Kovalev to get tested, that's great. Pascal for some reason doesn't, so it isn't happening.

Are you trolling? She clearly doesn't want to lose money by paying for drug testing herself.

If she isn't going to go into her own pocket to pay for it, why does she then get to decide what agency is used?

If she wants to use VADA, then stop being a cheapskate and pay for it yourself. Offer to pay for both guys to use VADA if it's so cheap then we'll really see Pascal's bluff called.

Why didn't Kathy or Kovalev request VADA from the beginning?

Pascal is the one pointing the PED finger. Why didn't he request it from the beginning?

Oh well.

I'm pretty sure she didn't want to pay for extra testing but given that Pascal is the one asking for testing and he didn't have the decency of asking during negotiations, then i don't see why it's wrong for her to insist on VADA. VADA is the only one i trust to do these testings and so no point in pascal demanding it to be the test he can pass with memo.

THis point has been made by a number of posters. I think its wrong fer her to insist because she doesn't want to pay for it. If its cheaper, better and she has the right to choose since her guy is the champ, then do this up front.

SHe is pulling all this out after the fact to shift away from the fact she was being cheap. SHe tried to maximize her income. OK, fine, that's her right. But she put money ahead of principle and now is trying to shift it.

Why didn't Kathy or Kovalev request VADA from the beginning?

Because no one asked for it... Pascal did after it was signed. Even though Kathy was within her right to say **** you, you already signed it, they were still willing to work with him on the testing. He didn't like not being able to use his one testing program so no one is getting tested.

I can't help but blame Pascal for signing the dotted line then. Who signs a contract with no testing?

[Beercules]

Why didn't Pascal? He's the one who conveniently makes a stink about testing after contracts have been signed (going back to the Hopkins fights). So why didn't he suggest the best testing agency in da bidness? Cuz he has Memo. He's dirty as hell.

*slow clap*

Here's the problem-Duva wants VADA and gave the reason for using it as "My guy is the champ, I have the right to pick the protocol". I disagree.

Duva didn't want to pay for it up front, because her guy is champ, but wants to dictate the method, because her guy is champ. If Pascal doesn't bring this up-there would still be NO TESTING, because DUva failed to put it in the contract.

She was being cheap then is in the media making the issue Pascal not wanting VADA. SHe wants VADA without paying for it. Come out of pocket!!

The point is simple. If a specific type of testing ask for it in negotiations. If you are going to then go in a smear campaign asking for tests when you didn't in negotiation then the test should be VADA because they work. If Pascal wants the test then it better be the right one.

Pascal got his bluff called and is still b*tching when he backed down. He can **** off and shut his mouth.

What don't you understand? Pascal asked for the testing, he offered to pay for it, Kathy seriously offered VADA to do it because it was cheaper even for him... And Pascal turned it down, why are we still blaming Duva?

You're made because she didn't want to pay for it? It's not her responsibility. Next time Pascal shouldn't sign a contract without a testing clause. Kathy had no legal liability to modify the contract to allow for testing, YET, she was still agreeing to ALL of Pascals terms except one thing. Who did the testing... Pascal was the one that had that problem, no one else.

There is only one person to blame for no testing...

This was explained to you multiple times. Duva doesnt believe in this kind of unregulated testing. But since Pascal insists...

[Foreign Soil]

Lol! God bless her soul! She offered to help someone out, and this is the thanks she gets? It's like handing someone food who is begging on the street, then they turn it down because they wanted drug money instead. How can Kat be blamed for her good deed when the recipient doesn't accept?
