    maybe this is where floyds rage has been coming from and you can't blame the guy. he has been a strong advocate to implement full osdt for years and hbo just ****s it up by highlighting his relationship with 50 cent?

    floyd has been very active in his cause. he is a deeply rooted man with conviction. when he says he only fights on an even playing field, there are no exceptions. ok maybe the one with jmm was a contradiction but size never played a factor right?

    exactly, after 24/7 ep2, floyd complains that they're showing too much of ortiz and his past, then come ep3, 70-80% of the show focuses on floyd...:lol::rofl Floyd has that power, and they'll do what he wants them to do, they cant afford losing him ala pac..:deal

    I dont see any reason why 24/7 wouldnt show the blood testing if it ever happened for this fight...none..

    Guaranteeing 40 MIL? I understand if it is 20 MIL. GBP must be out of thier mind guaranteeing floyd 40 MIL.

    How much is the HBO paying for this fight?

    you may be right. On another thread, that Marshmallows guy who loves Floyd said Schaefer mentioned Floyd was gauraneteed $15million, not the 40million initially reported and what Floyd has claimed.

    I think the 40mil was for the pac fight if it ever happened...40 is just too much for an ortiz fight, no offense to ortiz...:D

    i don't doubt there is a test. it would be a big PR blunder if floyd would not continue the test. my only concern is that if floyd really is cleaning the sport as what he says, he should be the first one to request it's coverage.

    Whether Floyd want to be tested or not, USADA will not and can not test Floyd and Ortiz at this time. They can't test them 2 weeks prior to the fight because of arm infection. Only urine test.

    it's odd that there was no coverage of the test. if there is, i might have missed it. floyd might have requested it but he does not care enough for it to be shown. he is more concern with ortiz' childhood story getting a coverage that he complained about it.

    Well it clear that floyd doesn't control what gets shown or he wouldn't be complaining about the recent HBO coverage :patsch

    Also why complain about not showing testing, testing ain't a big deal, every top athlete in the sport does it, you acting like it some crazy procedure :rofl

    didn't they already do a 24/7 that had a large focus on the testing?

    well if floyd really cares to clean the sports up, he should have made sure that HBO shows it for the sake of all the clean athletes like floyd.

    list the top athlete in boxing who does it?

    Do people actually believe that there is no testing for this fight even though it was announced that there would be testing and even though they showed footage of both guys signing USADA paperwork and being explained the procedures?
