    Seems reasonable but TBH I'm getting past caring about this side of the fight.

    I can only agree with Gaz. It getting more and more boring. If they do fight...it best be a ****ing epic because the build up so far has been tedious.

    Playing devils advocate, couldnt Pacquiao still cheat even with a 14 day window??

    Didnt Mayweather also say just before the Mosley fight, if he and Pacquiao ever thought, he had decided he wanted testing right up until the fight day and not the 14 day window??

    How much 'cheating' could he realistically do in the last 14 days ?! Or even 28 days?!

    I don't think people are thinking through the maths on this one.

    It's been a bull**** line from Floyd from day one.


    It's really tedious now though.

    2 weeks is enough but theres still plenty he can do in his last week of training.

    whether you think its a bull**** line or not, the system he is asking for should be in place. all athletes should be prepared to give blood and urine at any time. no question. if your not happy about it go and become an accountant.

    A fighter could take a blood tesat right up to first bell without it effecting his performance, the amount taken is absolutely minimal. Pac either has some weird arsed primitive belief system that denies scientific fact or he has something to hide.

    What is your medical qualification that allows you to determine this cut off point?

    If this is true and Mayweather ups the demands. Then it's obvious he doesn't want the fight .

    Here come the 'Floyd doesnt want the fight' posts again. This aint rocket science boys, he told Sugar Shane on 24/7 as if it needed spelling out- Hes a Prizefighter! ("Of course I fight for money, you dummy!") The Pacquaio fight equals possibly the biggest grossing fight period of course he wants the fight chchiiiiiing.

    As for the blood test snorathonzzzzzzzzzzzzz..... ya get the point

    If the drug test issues are about to be resolved we've now got to put up with the endless arguments over who gets what percentage. I'll be amazed if this fight happens.

    We need stricter testing in our sport. Everyone should be behind these ideas. It is funny how peoples hatred for Floyd can cloud what could be a huge turning point in combat sports. If you have nothing to hide then take the test.

    Breaking news: Shane says he gassed in 3rd round because he gave so much blood prior tot he fight!!!!!

    Bollocks. Take the test.

    Not that I give a **** about this boring soap opera but its just as funny that, considering you now think this is such an important issue that we should all get behind, searching your user name for references to "steroids", "PEDS" and "drugs" turns up that you hadn't make one single post on the subject of drugs testing in boxing until Mayweather brought it up a few months ago.

    I'd say if anyone is letting his personal opinion of a boxer affect his opinion in this issue then its you.
