    If you can keep a win in your record after directly violating the WADA code, then the question is "should we still have professional sports in the United States?"

    I voted 'yes.' He cheated. This was a world title, it should be held to international standards, and Nevada's standards. (never thought I'd use that adjective)

    Fooled? How do you figure that?

    Or are you claiming that all of the testing protocol, which was tediously negotiated, was adhered to 100%?

    Personally, I think Floyd and Pac are both con artist dirt bags.

    But I have no doubt that the drug testing protocol, which has been a major talking point in this 6 year rivalry in the making, wasn't strictly adhered to.

    Will that constitute a No Contest? Probably not. But fights have been turned into No Contests for less than this.

    Farmy, whatever became of the Wlad-Brewster investigation? I remember you posting about this 10 years ago.

    Yes because the threads will be hilarious to read if that happens.

    Thanks for posting. We're the fans. This is what we should be doing should others fail.

    :lol:

    If we finish the year out with a bigger Floyd controversy, a GGG loss to Lemieux, and some mega controversy in Cotto-Canelo, these boards will be on fire.

    For those of you who remember, Vlad was called all kinds of names because of this, yet all he wanted to know was what happened to him. Vlad did not have, nor has ever had diabetes......................if the letter is read you will see what has happened in the past................but because Vlad was not an American fighter, the bias by the boxing media was shown.....................this and much more has been posted all over the Net years ago, but parts of this can shed light on a lot of things that have happened over the years................Vlad finally decided to give up rather than being made out to be a sore loser, but if that had happened to Mayweather......................what do you think he would have done? Yes, Steward, Vitali and many others have said over and over and over again that there appeared to have been an outside influence. This letter by Judd Berstein sheds a lot of light on this subject. This and much more can be found on the Net, or used to be there. Something has to be done about boxing...................the rankings are a sick joke...................how did Wilder get to the top without fighting anyone in the top ten, but it's not just Wilder, it's so many others......................Cotto not fighting his mandatory Golovkin, as any boxing fan knows, there are many more examples................., just read that Wilder will not fight Povetkin? I hope that was wrong, but it would not surprise me at all. Mayweather/Berto - PPV?! What an insult to boxing fans......................the boxing orgs make me want to puke...................the best should be fighting the best...............the above is not about the fight that happened years ago, it shows a small amount of what has happened and it has affected us all.....................I am tired of boxing fans having to wait for years to see a fight that is truly awesome, a war, between two good fighters, instead of a 1 win 12 losses against an undefeated fighter, ad infinitum......................the question is what can be done? We are going to have a few good fights coming up soon, but it sure won't be the PPV Saturday......................

    Wait, I swear that I'm not trying to be funny, but what is Floyd suspected of doing again Rums?
