    I would like to cast aside all of the heated opinion and get to the basics.

    Ever since Ben Johnson got caught for taking performance enhancing drugs at the Olympics, the matter has been in the spotlight. If you're an honest athlete, you don't want to see your hard work beaten by someone who worked just as hard but cheated using PEDs.

    The basic drive for any sportsman should be the integrity of the sport. Because without the rules, the sport means nothing.

    So why doesn't Pac, this upstanding sportsman, who is keen on a political career lead by example and take a standard drugs test? He's the World Champion, people look up to him, kids look up to him, why won't he set an example?

    By not bowing down to media pressure even though he knows he did nothing wrong, he is setting a good example.

    The whole "If you have nothing to hide then you should submit to the test" mentality is bad for society in general.

    If you are not doing anything illegal, should you automatically allow the authorities to tap into your phones lines?

    If you are not carrying drugs, should you allow the cops to search you?

    no.

    Would you like the police to constantly search your car for illegal subtance? Why not? you got nothing to hide after all.

    It;s not a bad mentality GTFOH with that. PBF would be sujected to the same test it's not like he's the only person here who's going to be tested here. Society views you as suspect and you have something to hide if you don't submit to a drug test that's the way the world is. :deal

    well its society thats wrong because in fact you should be viewed as innocent until proven guilty. Pac playing by Mayweather<s rules in this case would be like saying "If someone is accused of something then the onus is on him to prove his innocence."

    that what I would call setting a BAD example.

    If the cops wanted to pay me a guaranteed 25 million to do so, then sure I would let them.

    Silly comparison and if you think your argument is valid then you're a little thick.

    I know they are. They know it looks bad that Pac won't submit to these tests but PBF will.

    Baseball has a real drug testing policy in place now it took them years but it's finally in place. We can't say the same for pro boxing which has an outdated system.
