Manny Pacquiao: Urine testing for HGH is now here, No more excuses for Floyd
Monday, May 16, 2011
By Superstar Billy Graham
We’ve heard it over and over from Floyd Mayweather Jr, “Once Manny Pacquiao takes the test (random blood test), we will fight.” It is like a broken record, when we know for a fact Manny agreed to OSDT (Olympic Style Blood Testing). For those who don’ t know this bit of truth, please watch this video. You will clearly hear from the #1 Pound for Pound champion in the world that he agreed to the test Floyd is demanding. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vCT2BMQ424
So what does this have to do with urine testing? Plenty. You see, a company called Ceres Nanosciences has developed a new technology to detect HGH (Human Growth Hormone) by way of urine testing. No more invasive blood testing for HGH. We already know, steroids and EPOs can be detected by urine testing but HGH is a different story. Before, it was concluded only blood testing can detect HGH when in fact detecting HGH by way of blood testing is nearly impossible. Only one known athlete has ever tested positive for HGH by way of blood testing, The Superstar will remind you, maybe millions of blood testing and only one athlete (British Rugby player) was caught with HGH in his system. Ceres Nanoscience has been developing this since 2009 and here is the link: USADA will help fund further study of urine test for HGH
Now The Superstar will present you a video where the experts will tell you in their own words they are developing and on the verge of detecting HGH by way of urine testing. This should satisfy every party who is involved in trying to make the mega-fight between Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather because this is the sticking part on why this fight has never materialized. By the way, for those who are not so well informed about HGH, you have to couple anabolic steroids along with HGH for it too be effective. After using anabolic steroids, when on the cycle, many athletes will use HGH soon after. Because without steroids, HGH is practically ineffective. Also the results of using HGH will need months of use before you start seeing the benefits. It is not immediate results like many uninformed people think.
Please watch this video about Ceres Nanosciences technology on detecting HGH by way of urine testing.

Thanks for his but this seems pretty far away from actually being employed doesn't it?
[Later Edit]
After doing some more reading it sounds like it is commercially available but that it is limted to finding HGH down to 1% of urine whereas a blood test claims to test down to parts per billion.
Of course since the existing blood test has been an utter failure I don't put any weight on the parts per billion claim.

A rampant Pactard found this and made an article. Anything to make the public believe it's all Floyds fault. Sorry Manny you must take blood. Stop bitching out.
