    My points come from what experts have stated about the situation, not my beliefs. They said boxing's PED testing is no good and that Pacquiao's desired testing would also be useless. The NSAC said that a fighter is allowed to ask for extra testing in contract negotiations. Mayweather didn't have to petition anything.

    Obviously you're not someone that knows how to get things done.

    First off, Mayweather could'nt go to any commision until there was a site confirmed. He certainly was'nt going to go to the Nevada commision if the fight were to be held elsewhere.

    and even if Mayweather could have just gone to the commision, he would likely have just been ignored.

    .....Mayweather's requests now is all over the news, and its something that cannot be ignored........and something that all commisions out there will feel the need to revisit the voracity of their own testing to see if there is something different they can do to make it better.

    Controversy, and gettting exposed publicly for their weak links is what unsettles orginizations like the NSAC, into making legit and responsible changes.

    This current controversy may very well turn out for the betterment of not only boxing, but every sport out there who is serious as to attempting to abolish the idea oft athletes feeling the need to cheat.

    Atlas said he almost always picks the underdogs. That doesn't make him a bias person. Plus, his picks have nothing to do with his honest opinion.

    Clean men don't take out lawsuits to prove themselves, they simply prove themselves.
