Arum welcomes WADA testing for Pacquiao-JMM 5

[mr. piff]

Seems like vindication for the mayweather clan and how they felt in 09

To be honest.....random testing is fine, but unless they do what Nonito is doing, all year round it doesn't really make a difference one way or the other. For Bob to really make a statement on this topic of drug testing he has to do real Olympic style testing, not what Floyd created when he first came out woth his partnership with USADA. If both sides agree then great....if not, it really doesn't matter becuase they aren't commited to testing all year round.

Annie Skinner: USADA has a close relationship with The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) but it’s important to understand that the organizations have different functions. WADA is essentially the standards setting authority and is extremely influential in anti-doping issues globally. Their Code and standards are considered the basis for the strongest anti-doping programs in sport, and more than 600 organizations have chosen to adhere to those strict standards including USADA. While WADA has set the bar for anti-doping testing internationally, the organization itself does not carry out testing services that an anti-doping organization does. USADA is the national anti-doping organization (NADO) recognized by Congress that provides comprehensive anti-doping testing services.

BoxingInsider.com: There have been many disputes in the media regarding the stance of Manny Pacquiao. Recently, his promoter Bob Arum suggested that Manny Pacquiao would accept testing, but while a portion of his training camp takes place in the Philippines, WADA would oversee everything. Is this a conflict of interest, or a commonality that shouldn’t be an issue?

Annie Skinner: USADA has the protocols in place to test an athlete who may be training or living for a period of time outside of the United States and regularly does so for U.S. athletes in the Olympic movement. If all parties agree to an anti-doping program conducted by USADA, the testing plan could be carried out regardless of an athlete’s location.

BoxingInsider.com: Are there any differences at all between testing methods of WADA and USADA?

Annie Skinner:Again it’s important to understand that WADA does not provide testing services the way that USADA or a state boxing commission does. WADA sets standards and USADA’s testing program is consistent with those standards.

Wow, I remember a time when Pactards said all you had to do was pass the commissions test to prove you where clean, a time when there was no need for extra testing, a time when asking for extra testing was one of the most disgraceful moves you could pull in boxing, a time when USADA was corrupt and the protocols they followed (VADA's protocols) where bullshit and corrupt.

Wow, how things have changed.



So now the question is why would they not accept it previously? hmmmmmmm

the irony! Disgusting to say the least

[victor879]

JMM should tell Arum that he's not the boxing commission and doesn't make those decisions....

The irony is hilarious!

JMM said before Arum said this, that he is willing to accept drug testing for their 5th fight.
