    up until the Mayweather fight then change his mind?

    I think I've read eze making those claims on a number of occasions but I have yet to see it backed up with evidence from a credible source. This is not a dig at eze by the way, I was merely wondering where this info came from and if it was from a valid source.

    yes, according to everyone involved on the Mayweather/GBP side of negotiation the initial contract sent over to Arum/Pacquiao had the drug testing clause, Pacquiao/Arum sent the contract back with revisions which included the penalty and such, but no change to the drug testing once Mayweather had agreed to the changes Pacquiao and Arum wanted to change the contract again to remove blood testing and since that point it deteriorated.

    Wether he is lying or not, the general feeling is that this info came from some sort of source but I have yet to see it myself.
     
  6. Manny agreed to be randomly blood tested up to 24 days before the fight, immediately after the fight, and randomly urine tested at any time.

    That's what I've always thought but eze and a few others keep going on about Manny agreeing to random blood testing up until the fight.

    He agreed to random drug testing, just the floyd boys don't want to accept it. It's the cut-off date that he didn't agree with.

    There's a video where Roach says they agreed to olympic style testing which as far as I'm aware includes random urine and blood testing.

    So they agreed to it, whether they a stupid enough to agree to something without knowing the details is another thing.

    Did he?

    Or did he agree to move the 30 day test of the 3 blood tests forward to 24 days?

    Yes he did.

    It was after Mayweather agreed to the weight penalty that Pac/Team had a problem with the drug testing.

    No, he agreed to being testing 24 days out and after the fight, that's not random
