Taking the piss...

I did and most of the threads are full of the same old repetitive shit. I'm sure I'm not the only who doesn't want to read pages and pages of why Pacquiao should or not take the test for the millionth time.

There seems to be a few posters who are actually educated on the subject of PED's and it would be great if they could discuss whether or not this statement is actually valid.

Wait for the court case and all the various legal filings by the lawyers, we'll probably get to hear most of what went on eventually one way or another. Other than Floyd's side offering to compromise to 14 days and Manny's people saying no I don't think a lot went on really.

In June 2003, WADA’s Executive Committee accepted the results of an independent report stating that urine tests alone can be used to detect the presence of recombinant EPO. This report, requested by WADA’s stakeholders and commissioned by the Agency to evaluate the validity of urinary and blood tests for detecting the presence of recombinant EPO, concluded that urinary testing is the only scientifically validated method for direct detection of recombinant EPO.EPO Detection - World Anti-Doping Agency

Thanks again.

I'm sorry but any reasonable person can read the articles provided on this thread an see the difference between them. I trust the word of Travis Tygart (chief exec of the USADA) more than that of obviously bias journalist Kevin Riley (your first article) and some article on new, experimental testing by some company called Ceres Nanosciences (your second).

Travis Tygart: "I think that it's fair to say that there are several, very potent, performance enhancing drugs that only blood can detect, and there is an entirely different method of detecting broader categories of drug use through parameter testing that is done with the blood."

Thanks
