    His tweets:

    You guys think Khan will take Mayweather's lead, now? In that, every opponent he now faces, he'll ask for them to submit to random testing?

    He's not a Mayweather or a Pacquiao by any stretch of the imagination, but, outside of the them, he's one of the biggest names in and around 140-147, and does have the power to make such requests. And to be fair to him, he has every reason to suspect every opponent he now faces. Not nice being ****ed over in Washington the way he was. Not only did he have his belts taken from him, but that multi-million dollar showdown with Mayweather was derailed, too.

    Thoughts?

    Until random testing is performed regularly for all fighters (not just for those that request it), it'll never be good enough. I mean, if a guy like Peterson - the one who insisted on it - was confident that the gear he was using could bypass random testing, then without doubt the cheaters/drug-creators have ways to stay ahead of even the random testing bodies.

    Khan should ask for extra testing as any top fighter should.

    Yeah Peterson looks like a total dick. I respected what he'd made of himself but this is just a disgrace. Wouldn't be suprised if Khan is on stuff too but why did Peterson request it if he was on it himself. Tottaly over confident. I read what Conte said about VADA and OSDT and it sounds like Peterson would have got off with it under OSDT.

    Expect Khan to retract his statement after Roach gets his hands on him, same way he did after saying Marquez clearly won the 3rd fight against Pac.

    He probably thought his gear was good enough to bypass VADA's protocols. And he was almost right, because like you said, he would have gone undetected with USADA and none of us would have been the wiser!!

    Or maybe he was completely oblivious it was in his system? Jeez, maybe he didn't have a clue and therefore was confident he would pass any form of drug testing?

    Lets keep this extra testing as normal for as much levels of boxing as we can, Khan risked his life and health in the first fight, it's beyond all jokes when someone's life is at risk vs PEDed fighter, it's bad enough on level plane fields.

    He said JMM won by a point or two, then he changed it to could have been a draw, the guy he was commentating with probably had it 119-109 JMM, am a JMM fan but that ****er was biased, completely ignored the rounds pac won (although he scraped them)

    It was a close fight in terms of rounds scored by each fighter, just that JMM kicked pacs ass in the rounds he won with trademark combinations, where as Pac scraped past Jmm on the rounds he won with work rate, aggression and counter right hook

    Khan has said many times floyd is really nice guy in real life and he does this impression to sell tickets

    Oblivious that he had testosterone implants? Yeah, that makes sense.

    I think his team ****ed up and were unaware that a carbon isotope test was going to be carried out under VADA testing. This will show up any synthetic test.

    His pellet would have secreted the test in small quantities per day, this would have kept his T/E ratio within a legal range but have still boosted his test levels and given him an edge. Under normal NSAC testing procedures, no way would he have been stopped. He would have been legal to fight, even though his T/E ratio would have been far higher than that of the average human being.
