    :good pretty much this. I stopped even arguing with them. I said something and then they replied changing the whole damn subject on me and I knew were this was going to.
    They believe the current tests are better than OSDT

    All you're doing is throwing out red herrings to distract from the real issue. He believes the boy is on something and exercised his right to have additional testing. It doesn't matter if he wants to clean up the sport. All that matters is that he believes Pacquiao is on something. That's reason enough to ask for extra testing.

    Then you don't do it. If you do, the message is, "We only care to make sure your clean if you are a super star. We could care less until you reach that status."

    But if the costs are that extrvagant, then who the **** is Floyd to insist OTHER fighters foot the bill for something not required, and that no one else is doing. Not even Floyd's OWN fighters.

    No, you just took from it precisely what you wanted. According to Reg, Floyd only wants testing because he assumes Pac is a cheat. And then, only said he wanted to clean the sport supposedly due to the suit. And then, Floyd is trying to lead by example. :patsch

    I know. Floyd/JMM was not the biggest fight in boxing. That is why it involved cheating.:rofl

    You realize when Floyd says that is his intention, then it does kinda matter. And where's the leading by example for his fighters? Mr. I can burn money, can't test his own guys with the testing he insists other take? :huh

    Floyd wants Pac to take the test because he believes Pacs on something, and that Pacquiao gets physically and mentally weak after them needles. Nothing wrong with this..

    I've already explained why he's asking for these tests, he believes Pacquiao is on something. With that being said, there's no reason to have his fighters tested. This isn't a difficult concept to grasp.

    :patsch You also said he is trying to lead by example Reg. HOW is not testing his own fighters with the testing HE INSISTS others take, leading?
    I understand you are trying to be very careful what you say, but cut the ****.

    but you also believe that he is cleaning the sport up? why not go the extra mile and set an example by letting the fighters you promote go under a better drug test if he thinks the current one is a joke?

    so you think floyd knows the morales incident and is trying to make pac weak as possible whenever they fight?

    how about the cleaning the sport part, do you believe in floyd about that part?

    I was joking about the leading by example. No surprise that's what you jumped on.

    Can someone answer this. What if Floyd is juicing during his vacations. How can Floyd's style of testing detect it?:think

    I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. Look at my very first post in this thread, it says it all.
