Bob Arum on Blood Tests: Nurses Poke Your Arm Until You Can't Move It.

what:huh?


here's what i think. since they can check ped in urine (except hgh), blood draw 2-3 weeks to check for diseases and get a baseline count on red blood cell and blood draw after the fight to check rbc count.

 

or just keep the INTEGRITY of the test and have it random throughout.....Pac might get lucky and they'll do the last random 14-18 days before the fight. They stopped 18 days before Mosley.

 

thats fine....im sure floyd could agree to some stipulation as to how many times a day you cold have blood drawn.....im fairly certain once a day would more than adequate....anymore would probably not be neccessary.....

so whats pacs reasoning for avoiding it again?

 

Cop-out.

 

ya but theyll just keep pricking pac in the arm...the poor guy will be so bruised up how will he ever be able to spar and train properly :-(

even if pac is able to make it through that hellacious process....he will probably never even be able to overcome the mental trauma...the shock and horror caused because of his obvious fear of needles will be too much to overcome

and lets just say, by the grace of God, pac is able to overcome those gigantic obstacles....the USADA will probably just help floyd cheat by tainting one of pacs samples and allow floyd to dope!

 

Uhh, he's not avoiding it anymore. . it's been resolved for almost two years now.

 

CLARKY CAT!!! What is your avi from!

 

Do you believe they will take an excessive amount of blood or take blood an excessive amount of times? Or do you believe they have a system to let them know how much blood they should take, and how often they should take the blood to be as safe as possible, while still having an effective test?

If HGH can only be checked in blood, why would they not take blood tests? Why would you default to something that can't detect HGH, when you have something that can.

You say "i believe no boxer should have their blood drawn more than nescessary to reduce risk." Not having blood tests at all, which are the only proven way to detect HGH, is increasing the risk of boxers using HGH correct? So isn't the best thing to have a blood test in place that does catch HGH, but have testing standards to monitor how often and how much they take?

 

oh has it? where did you hear that? did bob arum say that? ohhhh .....did you see a signed contract where pac agreed to full random up until the fight(the stipulation floyd said would have to happen, in the ring, after the shane fight).....cuz i didnt....all i heard was a bunch of bs from the pac camp saying "ya ya thats not an issue" after it clearly was a big issue for quite some time

 

Well, if negotiations cease because of drug testing, then we'll know it's an issue. . But until Floyd mans up, and wants to make the fight by being fair with the purse split, we won't even having negotiations.

 

CLARKY CAT!

Hahaha stop ducking me brosef!

 

lol @ people defending Arums statement

 

we already saw a negotiation cease because of drug testing.....the first one....right before pac ran away to fight clottey in dallas....just like arum had planned all along while pretending to negotiate
