Comments Thread For: Pacquiao-Thurman Event To Now Carry True Random Drug Testing

[BLASTER1]

I wonder if some scouts were checking out Boxing Scene to check what the fans thought about no testing and when the threads were overwhelmingly pro testing these suits thought dam we should actually test for a championship fight.

Still clinging on to that Gibbons article

Yesterdays news. How is he enrolled in the WBC's program when he isn't even ranked in the WBC.

All the Brazilian UFC fighters were doing what Pacquiao is doing until USADA got on the case. Juice in Brazil(Philippines), end cycle, fly to the states for the last month of camp and fight.

Yup, same **** Floyd did for years. Fight on 2 certain dates every year, use loads of PED in between fights, cycle off appropriately, use a paid for in your pocket drug testing agency , shout to the world how everyone is dirty and boxing needs to be cleaned up and then run for the hills when your tests get subpoenaed by the courts.

Even the best ever was a ****** drug cheat

Pacquiao-Thurman Event To Now Carry True Random Drug Testing

(...) BoxingScene.com has learned that both boxers are now subject to stricter testing than was previously the case, although all parties involved remain intentionally cryptic in providing any details-including confirmation of the new development....

Jake Donovan: "Multiple sources have confirmed with BoxingScene.com—on the condition of anonymity given their involvement in fighters’ camps and a confidentiality clause currently placed on the event—that both Pacquiao and Thurman are among no fewer than eight boxers on the show who are guaranteed to be tested in advance of the PPV show."

... Jake Donovan, dear: tested by WHO, precisely???

i honestly think this was just to get more people interested in this fight. they got everyone talking about it now. im pretty sure pbc al haymon and floyd wouldnt allow a fight like this to go on without any extra drug testing. it was done to get people talking about this fight and it worked!

If the testing agency is in Floyd's pocket then why

1. does he need to cycle off peds?
2. have records of failed test in the 1st place?


Love for you to answer those two questions because it seems your conspiracy theory is short on logic.

... "extra drug testing" as compared to "no drug testing"?... and "drug testing" meaning precisely what?...

[Jab jab boom]

I mean honestly who cares? I could see if one guy was not being tested and one was, then of course there'd be something to complain about but in this case both guys haven't been tested, therefore they're on an even playing field. And now they're both gonna be tested so again what's there really to be upset about?

so what you're essentially saying is, let both guys cheat, which is a pretty warped perspective. All pro fighters should be tested consistently because boxing isn't a sport where someone should be allowed to have that kind of an advantage, you know.. Since you're playing with people's lives and all. Pac has been dodging testing for yrs and his continued lack of desire to test for fights is a problem.

there was always drug testing in place. just not vada testing.

... WC dear, we are not all dumb here... ...

extra (adjective) means "added to an existing or usual amount"...

... what's the "existing" or "usual amount" of drug testing in this case??? ... in order to be able to assess the "extra" amount of drug testing??? ... ... but never mind...

Fight is 3 & a half weeks out. Idk that testing now is very meaningful, but f#ck it okay knock yourself out I guess.
