    From what I've read so far, the EPO tests that are conducted by the WADA are done on urine samples.

    Based on what I've read so far, that is the test that was used to catch the cyclists you are talking about.

    isn't it interesting how good people are Slandered Defamed and Libeled by scum. Ever heard of Lance Armstrong? He comes across as a good guy. He made the greatest comeback in sports history. Instead of praising the guy he is abused as a drug user because is performance have been so great'. Test after test have proven him innocent. Still the scum abuse the guy. lignocaine is used to cut cocaine,does that make Floyd a user?After all his father was convict of dealing coke. Innuendo will cost The mayweather everyone they have owned.

    What the **** are you guys on about?

    Fact is Pac didn't want to take the blood tests up until the fight, even 2 weeks before the fight.

    Him passing completely different tests is irrelevant.

    None of us know **** about PEDs testing anyway.

    You are not far from the truth but read this. It's from wiki but I can find you a better source if you want :
    Blood doping

    ESAs have a history of usage as a [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_doping"]blood doping[/ame] agent in endurance [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sport"]sports[/ame] such as [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycling"]cycling[/ame], rowing, distance running, [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_walking"]race walking[/ame], [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_country_skiing"]cross country skiing[/ame], [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biathlon"]biathlon[/ame], [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triathlon"]triathlons[/ame], and, most recently, [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiards"]billiards[/ame].[17]
    Though EPO was believed to be widely used in the 1990s in certain sports, there was no way to directly test for it until in 2000 when a test developed by scientists at the French national anti-doping laboratory (LNDD) and endorsed by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) was introduced to detect pharmaceutical EPO by distinguishing it from the nearly-identical natural hormone normally present in an athlete’s urine.
    In 2002, at the Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Catlin"]Don Catlin[/ame], MD, the founder and then-director of the UCLA Olympic Analytical Lab and now head of the Los Angeles-based nonprofit Anti-Doping Research, reported darbepoetin alfa, a form of erythropoietin, for the first time in sports.[18][19]
    Since 2002, EPO tests done by U.S. sports authorities have consisted of only a urine or “direct” test. From 2000–2006, EPO tests at the Olympics were conducted on both blood and urine.[18][20][21]

    I think that the new generation of EPO CERA is detectable only by blood tests. But power to you I didn't now that before it was detected only by urine tests

    Lance Armstrong agreed to take any test people wanted him to. He went as far as he could to prove he was clean. Pac won't.

    This is silly. Haven't we all argued over this enough yet?

    you have answered your own question ! No amount of testing will prove anything . Pac hasn't refused he has told them he will test straight after the fight. Floyd just avoids the tough fights.

    That makes no sense. You say he hasn't refused but he's just agreed to do something different instead. That is refusing.

    There's far easier ways of ducking than mysticly predicting Pac would suddenly not agree to a test he'd previously signed up to.

    The blood test is only used to screen the candidates. Once they find out who is more likely to be using, they do the urine test to confirm it. The blood test alone cannot confirm that someone is using, while the urine test can.

    What makes no sense ? telling a bunch of crack heads that they don't make the rules. That is the error in your argument, crack heads don't get what they want just because they scream the loudest

    This is the thing, he is not the only one taking the test. if your opponent taking the exact same test as you what the hell do you have to complain about.

    Just take the stupid test and fight. extra test can only be better for the sport. Even if the blood test still showed up negative, at least we had two strict test to keep everything clean.

    With so much money in the sport they should do random blood tests.

    And is Berto demanding any extraordinary tests of Mosley ?

    A proven user ?


    Yet Floyd wants unprecedented testing of Manny ?

    Who's never come under suspicion before ?


    Pac has consistently agreed to blood tests THE DAY OF THE FIGHT.




    Floyd's running scared here.

    I don't believe he has great reason to be, but clearly, HE does.

    It really doesn't matter if both men are going to be taking the same tests if the demands come from the other party who ultimately shat on the others name without reason. Which is why I feel PAC is not willing to give in to Floyd when he didn't do ANYTHING RIGHT or ADMIRABLE with spreading these rumors about Manny to begin with.

    While I'm sick of the back and forth battle regarding these tests I do see why PAC is standing his ground. These requests are NOT common in boxing and definitly these actions are out of the norm for Floyd himself, so I have to question "why" floyd is acting this way when in 40 fights he's NEVER demanded anything so out there....especailly when PAC is from his won mouth "an easy pay day"....or "Can't fight" or better yet "all you gotta do is say my name and I'll sign to fight you":roll: What the problem is?

    Pacquiao doesn't care that Floyd is also taking the test. To Pac, that's just another strategy that Floyd is using to strong-arm Pacquiao into doing something that he doesn't wanna do by insinuating that he is a cheater. That's some pretty low ****, and I can understand that Pacquiao does not want to let himself be strong-armed.
