    Neither Dallas nor the Giants are any good- so nobody would care about that. But if the Giants were suspected drug users then of course they should be further tested. Typically, thats how you find out answers to questions- through investigation. Boxing is not boxing if there are drugs involved.

    No its not at all the same because football players will have signed contracts to play these games and all the rules will have been set in contract before the season starts.

    It would only be similar if both Pac and Floyd had both signed a contract to fight without random blood tests and then Floyd refused to fight him unless he took the random tests.

    You see that is what is called a league sport, there isn't any negotations at all. So no Manny crying for 144 lbs weight limit for a 147 lbs belt.

    Please explain to me why Pac is a 'suspected drug user'? Other than SR's baseless accusations, what makes Pac a suspected drug user?

    Why would floyd fight anyone else?
    He has already told us all he is the best boxer to ever put on a pair of gloves.
    He is done proving himself, don't believe me? Just ask him.

    No, you're digging. It's the same because both sets of examples have a governing body which controls illegal substance testing. The fight is set to happen in Nevada, the NSAC will be governing the fight and they set the drug testing standards. If Floyd wants them changed, he needs to petition the NSAC.

    Or no agreeing to a 144 lbs catchweight and coming in overweight with no attempt to cut it? :roll:

    Roach tried to get Void to fight Pac right after Pac knocked Hatton out in the 2nd round, but Void refused to fight Pac. Pac fought Cotto instead, another fighter that Void refused to fight.

    by your stupid logic, do you expect floyd to randomly blood test his opponents every time he fights?

    Yeah, and he gets to keep their samples for a period of eight years, too. :patsch

    Floyd's being an idiot. I can believe some people are actually ignorant enough to defend this.

    Perhaps Void is a vampire and wants the blood for himself? Remember the Las Vegas Vampires? LOL!

    It's in one of Marley's recent articles. He quoted Arum as saying that GBP is requesting to also keep one of Pac's samples for up to eight years.

    Pretty ****ing ridiculous, if you ask me.
