    The Nevada State Athletic Commission will now require additional analysis to blood tests that may indicate the use of performance enhancing drugs. Hemoglobin and hematocrit tests will be required, which will indicate blood doping or PED usage.

    Additionally, the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health and the Cleveland Clinic, reached an agreement with the NSAC to provide free testing for mixed martial artists and boxers. The idea is to study brain trauma and concessions. Participation by fighters will be voluntary. For more information, head over to MMAfighting.com.

    It's about time! Not only can they check the blood for the actual substance, but they can check the blood for raised testosterone and hormone levels. Good ****. This will flush out the problem.

    GOOD. Let the commission enforce it, not let it up to individual fighters to dictate to each other or refuse. If it's up to the fighters, it's clearly destined to be a ****ing mess.

    Now we can get the drug testing issue out of the way. Pac will honor this and since this is Floyd's trump card, he's got nowhere else to go besides asking for a bigger purse which is very laughable.

    RUN FLOYD RUN!

    I'll say this, when we see some guys choosing to not fight in Nevada any more, we know what's up. Maybe Arum caught wind of this coming and chose Texas for his guys? I'm not sayin, but I'm just sayin.

    I don't know if you have noticed or not, maybe your infatuation with Floyd and Manny have clouded your judgment, I don't know, but anyways, Manny has been fighting in Texas. These rules are for Nevada.

    Oh and by the way, Floyd doesn't have the "urge" so talking about Floyd running from Manny is a mute point. Find something new to think about, thank you.

    I don't know how this affects the FLoyd-Manny fiasco. Manny has no problem whatsoever on what they do with his blood. His main concern is how close to the fight his blood gets drawn.
