    TMT suspended two fighter for testing positive for smoking weed. Luis Luis Arias and Chris Pearson were suppose to fight this Saturday but the dumb asses decided we need to smoke weed ahead of the most watch PPV of the year.

    Props to Mayweather and Ellerbe, cleaning up the sport one step at a time.

    J'Leon Love fighting on the PPV card less than a year after testing positive for banned substances is a joke, if Mayweather was determined to clean up the sport he should have dropped Love there and then. Can't believe people think Mayweather and his promotions are saints or on a mission to 'clean up the sport.'

    They are.....maybe he on a last warning before he's dropped. They are cleaning up the sport, one fighter at a time.

    You can't simply turn your back on someone for making a mistake. Mayweather messed up and it wound up landing him in jail. I don't think he would appreciate it if everyone just abandoned him. These fighters are people, they have families. Kicking them to the curb over one screw up is pretty harsh.

    Mayweather is cleaning up nothing.

    how many of his stable have been busted for drugs? too many. they're still on board though.

    Floyd didn't ask for drug tests because he cares for the sport, he did it to dodge Pac. Floyd cares only for himself.

    but i find it cute that there are so many deluded people who think Floyd views those who allow him to take home the kind of money he does in a positive light, when in fact, he couldn't give a single **** about them.

    sad.

    How naive. Since when is cheating in professional sport, especially one so potentially dangerous as boxing, an innocent mistake to be swept under the carpet. Should be zero tolerance for drug cheats and thats the only way to 'clean up the sport' maybe they will think twice before doing it if there were to be harsher penalties.
