So you're a boxing fan. Have you done anything to see stricter testing? Have you send letters to the boxing commissions or to the media with regards to this? Has Floyd done this after the collapse of the first negotiation with Manny? Did you raise an uproar when Floyd did not even the playing field by coming in over the weight limit in his fight with Marquez?
Required test isn't sufficiant, it's urine and no random. Thats a cop out answer.
Required test had been sufficient until Floyd came up with that BS. It still is sufficient in all fights.

14 day cut off isn't a random test.
But the 14 day cut off ws good enough for Floyd in the first negotiation. Now you also want to act as the boxing commissioner and insist that's not good enough. And you are not even the one fighting so what's your problem.

Neither floyd or shane were told their last test was 18 days out for all they knew the
could've been tested again hence the word 'random'
So why were you not in an uproar that they were only tested until 18 days before the fight. Weren't you concerned that Shane might have cheated AGAIN in those 17 days leading up to the fight?

And you finish off with more unrelated floyd vs manny crap to dodge the issue and not have to answer the point. You don't want him to take a test cuz you think he might fail. I'm flattered that you think letters and emails from me would carry enough weight to change the rules of drug testing in boxing.
Either you have not read my previous post or just don't understand them. I criticized Manny for not giving in to Floyd's drug test demand in the first negotiation. I wanted him to just give in for the fight to happen but did not place the entire blame on him. Now that Manny already agreed to the demand, what more can you ask for?
I didn't say letters and e-mails from you carry enough weight to change the rules. You implied that, as a boxing fan, you would want stricter testing. Is there any PROOF that you at least advocated for this even before the Pacquiao-Mayweather fiasco? Or all you did about this is criticize Manny?

Thank you good night.
Thank you, too, but it's afternoon to me..
You haven't answered any of my questions in the last paragraph.
