    I wonder if Golden Boy would have became aware of this, had it not been for the Mayweather fan who posted the 24/7 clip on Youtube and linked it on forums.

    Arum proposed 3 blood tests and unlimited random urinalysis for Pacquiao, Floyd's camp refused.

    Arum proposed to use a different agency (like the ones NFL, NBA use) Floyd camp refused.

    Arum proposed to have the Nevada Commission oversee the testing, Floyd's camp refused.


    Lets see what happens this time.

    My 14 day compromise is looking golden.

    They agreed, if it had been random. What was disagreed was how far within the fight. They still could do Nevada if Nevada agrees and Arum says it's okay for them to do it. If Floyd finds 14 or so days acceptable, things could get signed.

    None of those are random tests. Do you that non-random testing is a joke because you can stop taking steroids the day before and clear every non-random test in the world?

    In my opinion, they just need to guarantee to Pacquiao that whatever they do won't have an adverse effect. That's all. However he should never have to take this test in the first place and it's low of Mayweather to be asking for it. But whatever, I hope he just takes it.

    I'll be really surprised if they say 14 days is okay. And I like I said, that would make using the USADA impossible since that agency is very strict on drug testing.

    They'll have to iron out a shorter cut-off date, like a week or 5 days.

    True. However I don't think it is that out of order for Mayweather to demand it, its premature seeing as there's no evidence what so ever, but with other demands such as $10 million per pound over, having strict drugs testing in what could be the biggest fight in history is not such a tall order.

    They gave up on USADA testing along time ago. All Arum has to do is agree that Nevada can do the blood test within X amount of days. That's it.

    Hopefully, they can agree on a 7-10 day cut off date, because I don't believe 14 days will be good enough for GBP and Mayweather.

    I still think Pac should tell them to **** off and move on, but, I'm getting sick and tired of closed-minded fools shitting allover his career because of baseless accusations.
