    I still dont see the problem, couldnt he have the tests done after training and then he would have a day or so to recover so its no major problem.

    But why risk it?

    Wouldnt a test right after the fight give the same results?

    Mayweather's promoter Richard Schaefer said a Pacquiao promoter told him the Filipino superstar would not agree to a blood test within 30 days of the bout because of his superstition against testing.

    Pacquiao and Mayweather have previously submitted, and passed, urine tests for performance-enhancing and illegal drugs supervised by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

    Travis Tygart, chief executive of the United States Anti-Doping Agency, said a blood test can allow testers to detect use of energy-boosting synthetic EPO, human growth hormone and "a number of potent performance-enhancers not detectable in urine. . . . With a [30-day] window like that, you could dope to the gills and get away with it.

    Tygart noted Olympic athletes are tested often and without notice. He said less than a teaspoon of blood is removed out of an average of 380 teaspoons in the normal human and that it regenerates within an hour of being withdrawn.

    Blood tests, he said, can find things urine tests can't, like the use of human growth hormone, synthetic hemoglobin or blood transfusions, all of which "certainly would aid in an endurance-type event."

    Shane Mosley and Manny Pacquiao are the only boxers who has competed at 147 since Mayweather started to fight at 147 who has any real chance to get a win over Mayweather. Mosley has been inconsistant losing to boxers that he is better than Wright (at 154) and Coto. Pacquiao intell very recently has been fighting at 130.

    This thread is idiocy of the highest magnitude.

    IQ testing should be enforced before letting people register handles, let alone post threads.

    "Well the sanctioning bodies and the state commissions run the boxing world, not Floyd Mayweather. Who is this guy to tell us that we have to have blood tests, or urine tests, or any tests? He's just looking for a way out of the fight. He is scared, and he's just afraid that he's going to get his ass kicked. We don't work for Floyd Mayweather. We fight for the state commission, since when does the fighter make up the rules?" -roach

    Didnt Roach say before the Hatton fight that Manny goes into a room and gets beaten with bamboo sticks or did i just dream it. If that does happen that has surely got to make him weak.

    Pac agreed to take a blood test right after the fight, it is essentially the same as a day before blood test. Void is just scared and he's trying to back out of the fight.

    I think Floyd "the Duck King' Gayweather has a good ring to it.
