News VICTOR CONTE CLAIMS CURRENT USADA DRUG TESTS ON PACQUIAO AND MAYWEATHER IS

...but, but, but it's the gold standard in testing.

 

He's just making the point the they are only testing in camp. In sports people will generally be using drugs out of season to get bigger/faster for the next season/year/fight which is why it requires year round testing. That's difficult to do though in boxing since theres no world wide commission. The best we're going to get is in camp random testing but conte is right in saying that it's probably useless. Even with year round testing though theres ways around this, certain drugs to take etc.. where theres money involved people will try to cheat.

An expert on the use of various forms of performance enhancing drugs, Victor Conte, claims the current so-called random drug tests conducted by the US Anti Doping Agency on Floyd Mayweather Jr and Manny Pacquiao which boxing scribes continue to refer to as “Olympic Style testing” is incorrect.

​

Conte responded to a question from the New Standard/Viva Sports in the wake of the verbal exchanges between Pacquiao’s longtime adviser Michael Koncz and Mayweather Promotions Leonard Ellerbe after Koncz had suggested that if either fighters tests positive for a banned substance, he pays a fine of $5 million to his opponent.

Conte said “short-term comprehensive blood and urine testing” is what Mayweather and Pacquiao are doing not 24/7 365 days a year like Nonito “The Filipino Flash” Donaire under VADA, the Voluntary Anti Doping Agency as well as Olympic athletes.
He told us that “if a boxer is allowed to determine the start date of the testing, then they can use PEDS and then taper off and begin testing,”

Conte posed the question “what were the boxers doing for the two months before the six weeks of testing before a fight begins” insinuating that it could mean a PED green light.

The expert explained that a boxer “could use PEDs for two months and taper off for two weeks before testing begins for six weeks and still receive benefits at fight time.

He claimed the reason the testing Mayweather and Pacquiao are doing is NOT as effective as 24/7 all year round is because Mayweather determined the start date.

At the same time Conte warned that “it's important for the boxing world to understand that PEDS can have long lasting carry over effects upon performance after use.”

The founder and president of BALCO, a sports nutrition center in California, Conte served time in prison in 2005 after pleading guilty to conspiracy to distribute steroids and money laundering.
After serving a prison term Conte developed sports supplements that are legal to use and has been in the forefront of efforts to clean up sports.

Conte for some time worked with Nonito “The Filipino Flash” Donaire who enrolled some years ago in a year round random drug testing program of VADA and is now reportedly working with Zab Judah, a sparring partner of Mayweather and Andre Berto.

 

Here's the bottom line, both camps are ok with the system that's in place so what's the issue.

 

I've said this for years that this wasn't Olympic style testing. Floyd used the term "Olympic" to give credibility to his demand for extra testing after claims Pac was a cheat and Ariza was his supplier. Sh*t is still Sh*t even if you put in a box, wrap it up and finish things off with a pretty bow.

 

....and floyd was comparing himself to mlk and malcolm x when he was claiming that he's cleaning the sport. *****'s was eating all that **** up.

now he's with a known cheater in memo with claims of undetectables, it's now just mind games. :verysad

 

Let them use PEDs. These 2 Biyatch owe us this fight.... In fact they owe us 2 fight.

 

So we suppost to believe a known cheat in victor? Pac fans are really re****ed lol

 

For real plus real OSDT is year round only person I heard that does this Doniare ..

 

Floyd will be juiced to the gills May 2 He's not going to get caught

 

of course its not olympic style drug testing, this was cleared up in 2010 ?

 

Surprise surprise . To be Olympic testing it needs to go on for at least 12 months . It was pointed out long ago as soon as floyd starting shooting his mouth off about Olympic testing . There is no 1:6 or 1: 4 testosterone reading in Olympic testing . Any artificial testosterone reading and you get two years.

 

Stopped reading right there.
