    Yeah, one after the fight but I still think if it's to be cleared up for sure, testing needs to happen during camp. Otherwise for all we know, he could be juicing during camp and then could be clean by fight night, not that I'm suggested he is juicing. Like I said though, if Floyd wants, he has to undertake exactly the same tests aswell.

    After? :huh


    Worthless, so many steroids or PEDs will be out of their system before they even come close to being tested.

    Nall....the one who started the rumors was Floyd Sr......the rumors are unjust and have no validity b/c there are no facts to support it.

    Its funny that you say they should be putting extra effort to expell all doubts when Floyd's camp is the one who spread the doubts in the first place.

    There's a clear double-standard here as to what Pac's responsibilities to the sport are and what Floyd's are.

    the Nevada State Atheletic Commission already has a drug testing system implemented to ensure a fair contest. Pacquiao has complied to it in all his fights so far. If that system is not up to date then they should put it up to date. Its not up to Pac to go beyond that system and especially not on Floyd's demand.

    My point is simple: Who cares who started the damn rumors??!?! Just take the damn test and STFU, seriously. If you got nothing to hide, than why would you care? Why is there a double standard if Floyd will undergo the EXACT SAME TESTING as Pacquiao? How is that a double standard?

    I want to make sure BOTH fighters aren't cheating... I could give a **** about their personal feelings on the matter.

    Floyd has the same responsibility as Pacquiao in this regard: Take the tests and make sure everybody knows we have 2 clean athletes going at it in one of the biggest fights of the last 20 years.

    "Its not up to Pac to go beyond that system and especially not on Floyd's demand."

    When it is in the contract you sign, it is your responsibility. This isn't about the sport's rules, it is in the contract for the fight that we have been told Manny has signed already. If he did not know Olympic Style drug testing included a blood test, that is his mistake.

    This is not even debatable. Only Predator Senior's/Floydettes' followers will only believe about the rumor.

    There's a double standard because you say Pac has a responsibility to the sport to cast away the doubts but there's no mention that Floyd has a responsibility to the sport not to spread these doubts in the first place.

    You want to make sure both fighters aren't cheating but the truth is that until these baseless rumours started spreading EVERYONE WAS ALREADY SURE that both fighters weren't cheating

    as for your last point no contract has been signed yet.

    When has Floyd Mayweather "Jr." ever said Pacquiao was on drugs? I've seen other guys say it, but I've never seen Mayweather Jr. say anything other than that he'll beat Pacquiao.

    I also said it is up to Floyd to expel all doubts about him using any PEDs as well. Hence, no double standard. The burden is not just on Pacman, it is also on Floyd.

    You seem fascinated with the argument that, "if the rumors weren't spread, we wouldn't be talking about drug testing." While that may be true, it does not change the fact that both fighters should undergo drug testing prior to the bout. It really is that simple.

    If Pac has nothing to worry about, just take the test. I just find it hard to believe that a blood test 1.5 months before a fight is detrimental to his physical and mental health. Remember, Pac is supposed to be a beast.

    Who cares. Why dont they just make it all legal, prob make better fights, same kinda thing in athletics, who wants to see someone run 100m in 9.5 second when you could do it in 4 on drugs.

    But personally no i dont thinks he is, he just one of those unique people

    explain. Isn't the plan to take the drug tests 6 weeks before the fight? how is that better than taking them the day after
