    3. blood test at the dressing room right after the fight (if anyone took any substance as aid for the fight, it wouldn't magically disappear fifteen minutes after right?)
    4. unlimited urine testing during the whole training period (urine testing is the prescribed method by WADA to detect EPO and is now developed by USADA to detect HGH)

    how could any sane boxer cheat with this?
    Thats funny I read the same specialists that you are referring to say that its a joke to have scheduled blood tests, that you could certainly cycle around them... Besides Mayweather is willing to go through the same tests so I think your point loses its validity...

    Not to mention teenage gymnasts and ice skaters random blood test and they wont even make a fraction of what Pussiauo will make for this fight.

    So emotional hormonal teenage Hannah Montana and twilight watching girls are willing to submit random blood tests. But the supposed PFP#1 in one of the most brutal combat sports in the world with a whole country on his back and potential 40 million dollars in his pocket and HE WONT FUCKIN DO IT? Anyone who dosent think thats absurd is an absolute fuckin nutter.. The guy is hiding something!!!!

    I watched Major League Ball Players pull this same shiit for years until they got caught and the ones who didnt get caught or proven guilty wont even sniff the Hall Of Fame either. It's all Bullshit 24 days? GET REAL!!, he didnt move shit at all, at least counter with 10 days or something. Yet you blame Mayweather because he didnt move

    In the bigger picture random blood testing and some kind of organized union is the best damn thing that can happen to the sport so it weeds cheaters out and removes the corruptness that we complain about after every damn high profile fight... Again if Pac had to do it alone thats one thing but he he has tattoos and the rest of his half baked excuses are exactly that, the little shit will lose more blood in the 1st three rounds of the fight than he would from a blood test a day or 2 before

    40 million dollars. ok.. its a HUGE amount. but you are confusing manny for money. 40 million dollars cannot buy dignity my friend. you forgot that manny came from having nothing.
    and 10 days? didnt you read what mayweather wanted? he wanted random testing. even if manny said that 5 days before the fight cut off floyd would still say no.
    I work in sales my friend, with that being said: During the negotiating the goal is to make concessions on each part until there is reasonable compromise and both sides feel like they are getting a good deal, with that there is movement on both sides of course.. Manny at mediation didnt waver from his stance wouldnt counter with anything and stuck to 24 days, Floyd said no...My point is Manny wasnt even being reasonable or receptive to anything other than scheduled blood work... That tells me he is hiding something again Floyd was willing to submit to the same criteria.. Tell me again how this is Floyds fault?

    This is about the fourth time Arum has said the fight is off. GBP are saying there's still a negotiation window, or they're negotiating still, I forget. I haven't read the thread yet but I will later. Not looking promising though.

    EDIT: it isn't off till one of them signs a contract for another fight. The only promotion the fight needs in 24/7, there's no problem with this ticking over another week or so before any announcement.

    This may already have been pointed out but it only occured to me today.

    If Pac really has been juicing all this time why not just take the random tests but not do the PEDs? Sure he wont have the power or whatever but his reputation remains intact and he's $40m better off. Admittidly PBF becomes an ATG at Pac's expense but none of this bullshit ever happened...

    Surelly if Pac has been cheating he'd realise this and just takes the damn tests. unless of course he's been clean all along and genuinely does believe the tests weaken him?

    i guess a suddent drop in power, speed or whatever would be as good a positive test in a lot of peoples eyes and would damage his reputation anyway

    I have already sensed from the day this fight was negotiated that there will be problems in both sides.

    I honestly believe that Mayweather is afraid of Pac ( just as he was afraid of Cotto and Margarito) so this fight may not happen.


    I never thought that a simple drug test would be an issue for this fight to be called off.

    Pac's camp should have offered a closer day for the random testing like 7 days before the fight. They could have rightfully blamed Mayweather for putting this fight off. Seven days would not be enough for pac to cheat if he is really juicing. Seven days would also give Pac enough time to recover from the blood letting. It's either Pac is really juicing or he's too proud (and too stupid) not to accept Gayweather's demand. Damn your pride Pac!

    Anyway, we won't really know who's to blame as Mayweather immediately shut off any door for negotiation when he didn't budge with his demand to do the random testing ( even minutes before the fight!!!).

    If Mayweather was really interested, he could have offered a closer day for random test. But no, Golden Boy even could not convinced him to make a concession.

    Whew. This fight is making me insane.

    Mayweather offered a window of 14 days for the blood testing. He wasn't even asking for the 7 that you think is reasonable. He was asking for 14 days, which is even more breathing space for Manny. And Manny has seemingly turned that down.

    It is insane and highly suspicious. And you have to keep returning to that question. Why is Manny having so many issues with a random blood test? The man is acting up something rotten and sure isn't acting very innocent.

    Manny is the one who has turned his nose up at the fight. Not Mayweather. No excuses from the Pacfans please. Mayweather offered even more than he should have, and Manny shrugged his shoulders.

    We have no fight because Manny Pac is either juicing and it's all hit too close to home or else he is scared. Franky, it's difficult to look at it in any other way. There is no reason to refuse a 14 day window if it's all about a reluctance to give blood and the worry that it might affect his performance.

    I didn't know Gayweather asked for 14 days. Could you provide the link please?

    thats good that you work for sales. just like when somebody bargains with you and you dont like the deal? do you say no right away or you keep bargaining till you reach a middle ground? all this time floyd wanted random testing. floyd didnt even bargain at all.. he just said NO upfront. he could have told manny "how about 10 days before the fight?" and maybe manny could have said yes or no.. but thats another arguement.

    I agree wth that in a sense. It was clear that Mayweather wanted random testing and Pacquiao wanted scheduled testing for whatever reason, but we could have a fight if Mayweather said "How about random testing up until a week before the fight?" That might have been more acceptable. I still don't see any reason why Pacquiao didn't agree in the first place, but its disappointing that it looks like they can't work out a compromise on what is such a trivial issue. Until both sides have said its off i'll still remain hopeful that something might happen, but its beginning to look unlikely.
