    Or Floyd could say **** it and I know we were full of ****, let's just make the fight. The mans "Mayweathers" claims would be thrown out of any court before the judge entered the room. :yep

    Sorry, but urine is used for EPO. The last 3 Olympics have used urine testing for EPO. Urine is very valid and its the preferred method.

    When Conte was cheating the system it was because of TGH, since no one knew it existed. And at the time, people weren't looking for EPO in urine at least in boxing.

    Btw EPO and testing for it has been around since the 70's in cycling. They test EPO with urine obviously, besides using hair and blood.

    Lance has also been reported to have evaded tests, which doesn't serve his rep well either.

    Floyd Sr saying that he thinks Pacquiao is cheating because he's so good doesn't mean **** to most reasonable people. The fact that Manny is willing to **** this fight off rather than submit to the best testing available does. Nobody has to like or agree with it. That's just the way it is.

    Even though he's a POS I'll take his word over yours. He's the expert.

    No he hasn't evaded ****. Do you realize the AFLD keep drug samples indefinitely? They've gone back and tested his urine and blood dating back to 95 and come up negative. They do this periodically as the improve test methods. Still nada, ziltch.

    He's been reported to have evaded testing more than once. Look it up if you don't believe me. The last one I read about was him having someone stall the testing authorities for over a half hour so he could take a shower, etc.

    The problem is in today's age there's new designer drugs coming out all the time and they don't even know what or how to test for. I've heard many conflicting stories of whether urine or blood is better for testing. The most consistent story I've heard overall is that when conducted properly and searching for specific drugs both tests are damn near equal.

    Why? I already read Victor Conte's statement about EPO testing. I'd have to say he's the expert since he helped mother****ers cheat and get away with it for years. You should probably read it yourself.

    That was before 2003 and he got caught and all his athletes got caught. Do a search on what has happened to all the people he was juicing. :lol: C'mon man, be real.

    For some things, yes. For others, no. I don't believe you can test someone's red blood cell count using their ****.

    Doh...

    "Fortunately, testing technology has now caught up and promises to stem the tide of abuse. There is now an accurate urine test that can detect the differences between normal and synthetic EPO. This test is now the standard and was the sole means to detect for EPO use in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. The reliability of this test helps explain the cascade of athletes who have been caught and, subsequently, banned from competition. This surge in positive tests will likely decline as the “word” gets out and EPO use declines -- at least until someone figures out a work-around. Of course, there is always the next great pharmacologic or genetic cheat just lurking around the corner to consider."
