    This finger-pointing nonsense is really annoying me.

    Zab's not serious with these demands, because if he was, he would put them forward before signing the contract. Not that he was ever in a position to do so.

    Since Khan and Pacquiao have the same trainer and conditioner (I think he's back with Ariza now?), it would probably do more for Manny's name than anything else if Amir was to take the tests. Either way it would be good for Khan just to show he has nothing to hide.

    I actually think it'll be the opposite. It'll put more pressure on Manny to cave into Mayweather's demands.

    Also, it should be noted that Khan in the past has said many times that he'd oblige Mayweather's demands if they were to ever fight.

    Smart idea when Roach is involved.

    All championship level boxing should have random testing, boxing has been behind on this for years. It's a joke that we have heavyweights that obviously roid and don't get caught. I don't see why it's seen as an accusation, it really should be seen as cleaning up the sport

    However if I was Khan I'd say 'That's fine just make sure it's financed out of your side of the fight purse'

    If it needs to be brought in for the good of the sport then fine but as it is now it just gets mentioned as a wind up/ points scoring/ publicity stunt/ negotiating tactic on an ad hoc fight by fight basis.

    victor conte is a slimy ****, he probably knows more than any doctor on the planet when it comes to this stuff and its funny how he says OSDT is easy to beat, then he claims his 2 biggest fighters with whom he works are willing to go OSDT, well if its easy to beat of course they will do it

    This. People accusing each other of PEDs is just routine press conference now and takes away from the real seriousness of the matter.

    The random testing would trouble Judah more than khan. The silver medalist has previously said how open he is to doing open Olympic style testing as he was expected to do that from an early age.

    You can tell how disruptive the osdt is by watching moslEy v mayweather 24/7 when Mosley is bone dry and the testers turn up for some **** and blood just after a training session. I'm willing to bet the older less disciplined Judah would struggle more with the impromptu ways of OSDT.

    Khan should definitely go for it
