    Agreed. But don't start doing it with a fighter that the other fighter is afraid of. FM has not required this of any other fighter. This type of testing should be done as a requirement of the commission and should have an official starting point. Not out of reaction of one fighters baseless claims. ODH did not require this of FM and neither should FM of Pac. FM jumped further in weight to fight ODH.

    Current testing should be enough for this fight as these are the same tests that validated FM was clean for his 40 wins. If we question the testing now, by necessity we have to question whether or not FM was really clean during his 40 an 0 run. You see, slippery slope.

    Floyd questions his path to the top because to go from 106 to 147 is very special. Often, we have found when special accomplishments are achieved that the athlete was on something.

    I find it shocking that people aren't championing the strictest testing possible. Olympic testing isn't 100% but it's the best I know of. You can be randomly tested for urine, blood and saliva. Athletes must be subjected to this because of all the cheating.

    I love how people suddenly like the commission. All the commissions aren't up to scratch and are continously improving. This fight could set a GOOD precedent.

    We should question testing and its not a slippery slope. Given sport today, we should question everyone who has ever accomplished anything special.

    In an earlier post you were given a link with a long list of guys. Mosely, Jones, Toney and Vargas are not to be trusted. Why the **** should we trust any other athlete.

    Achilles, no one's saying they don't want stricter rules in boxing. The likes of me and Gaz have simply said it shouldn't be done at the hest of the Mayweathers.

    I don't see it being done any other way so I'll support however it could get introduced. This will hopefully set a precedent.

    Floyd has the right to suspect Pac. He's conceeded to EVERY request from their camp - EVEN a 10mil fine if he misses weight.

    Suprise suprise that P4P like Roy, Mosley and Toney have been caught doing drugs and they all got caught at the heigher weights.

    Then if we are simply pointing to weight, then Floyd should be questioned more so. He moved from 106 to 154. If Pac should be suspected, then surely Floyd must be cheating. Besides we have evidence that Floyd has used unfair advantages. I am speaking specifically of coming in overweight when fighting JMM. Overweight against the smaller less skilled fighter. Now he wants a level playing field? Riiiight.

    Void, Sr. said that he did not want Void, Jr. to fight Pac.

    Void wants to rewrite boxing rules for Pac only, never been done before.

    Pac agreed to take a blood test right after the fight, nothing wrong with that.

    The drug he took slows the heartbeat and enables him to take a steadier aim
