If this were Floyd refusing to take a test; I would think that the story would be bigger than it is now...I could only imagine all the Gayweather; ducking; steroid user; blah blah; it would be nuts...this uproar is mild in comparison if the shoe were on the other foot.

I mean this is Boxing; and the whole point of the sport is to beat the other person into submission; or to inflict more damage on your foe than he can inflict upon you. This is not track & field, cycling, or baseball; this is contact sport where people have been killed or maimed for life. Even in Football you have Helmets and Pads. That being said; if there is ANY sport where the utmost care must be taken to avoid cheating it is the sweet science. Cheating in this sport can kill someone.

Testing negative throughout your career means bupkus. I say if there is a way to be certain (as certain as one can be), I say do it. SSM, Roy Jones, Vargas, Holyfield were all reportedly looking for that something extra found in a syringe.

Quick question; was Manny considered the second best Fighter of All Time behind Sugar Ray Robinson before beating ODLH, Hatton, and Cotto? Where did he rank on the all-time lists? In my humble opinion that is where the arise. Any athlete in a sport like boxing that improves that dramatically while getting older is going to raise a brow in this day and age of the so-called "Steroid Era". Barry Bonds was a ATG player; but wanted to become legendary; Mark McGwire was a decent player, but wanted more; Marion Jones was an elite athlete in D1 basketball and Track and Field, who wanted more. A-Rod; Roger Clemens; Rafael Palmeiro, Andy Petite, Manny Ramirez were all wonderful athletes , who wanted more...I say take the test Pac; and put all the questions to rest; beat the hell out of Floyd, then File your Lawsuit. If not; and it really doesn't matter because I am a regular "Joe" but I will always wonder if your recent exploits in the ring were done with a little assistance.

All I want to see is a good match between two people that are relying solely on skill and conditioning go head to head to see whose skill and conditioning is superior. Quite frankly; I think Floyd is the better fighter, however, if Pac beats the Sh** out of him; it is not going to change my life one bit; I will still have to drag my A** to work the following Monday.

Anyhow; I hope the fight moves forward; but if it doesn't fine; I will do something else with my 50 bucks..
