    Cost doesn't really apply to 2 fighters that stand to make millions of dollars. It applies to thousands of Olympic athletes though where testing is costly.

    Medical risk? Really?

    why are you asking this?

    has someone asked for everyday testing?

    im trying to see what your getting at with this question.

    Drawing blood everyday would definitely cause a problem i think, im not sure if thats healthy for anyone but who knows.

    judginig from the site though you have people crying about giving it just ONE time....imagine if they had to give it everyday...certain DEATH!

    Considering how big a deal was made my Team Mayweather on the cut off date, how long certain drugs take to get through your system, this just looks odd and makes so much of the bull**** they went through moot.

    CERTAIN DEATH? No way man. USADA and ESB forumers says blood tests are safe and does not affect athletes with their training physically or mentally. They certainly can't be talking out of their asses?

    If so why are they not supporting the idea of everyday blood testing, THE MOST DEFINITIVE WAY OF CATCHING OR PREVENTING A DRUG CHEAT FROM USING, AND SAFE TOO!

    Isn't the answer so obvious that it makes the question a bit futile..

    As "igotJUIC3" mentioned - where did you get it from that testing stopped 18 days prior to fight? I am 99% sure this wasn't the case cos they (24/7) made a point of showing mosley testing much closer to the bout..

    the answer is simple, its called Random blood testing.. meaning they can stop when ever they like and do not have to tell neither fighter, and at the same time they can also come back to test you if the so feel the need.

    Stop trying to take a cheap stab at Mayweather, if Manny agreed to the testing in the first place you wouldnt have this arguement you would be too busy talking about how Floyd only fought Manny cus manny was shot

    How are you going to catch a cheat if you're going to stop testing? The fact that Shane was a peds user.

    What if Shane took a chance and used peds on that period?

    The question is, is there a risk taking blood samples within 7 or 14 days. Medical sources pls. There are those who say Manny is not afraid of needles judging from his tattoos. But who among you would allow yourselves to be tattooed 3-4 days or even on fight day?

    Sorry you missed the point of the thread. Read the whole thread and you'll realize it's a stab at USADA, not Floyd.
