Why did Pacquiao change his mind and agree to testing?

You're kidding, right?

Experts on the issue are *on record* saying the current drug testing policies are a ****ing joke.

Do you remember Shane Mosley and the Balco scam? Where were your current drug testing policies then?

 

Who introduced the idea of ODST ayway? The fighter who openly stated that he will easily defeat Pac (without distinction on whether he is roided or not) and in fact never asked 40 other fighters to be tested.

I know that chickens and ducks can live harmoniously but I NEVER HEARD OF A CHICKEN DUCKing.

 

to make the fight happen

 

There is no fight because Floyd's daddy thinks southpaws are kryptonite. You can hear the terror and doubt in his voice anytime Sr talks about 'em. Dude is spooked.

 

when did Mayweather offer the 14 day cut-off on blood testing?

 

"Kidding"? Nah homeboy.....calling a spade a spade that's all. EXPERTS also say that the "gold standard" of testing which is the USADA and WADA testing measures are still very easily beaten with a pretty hefty price tag to incorporate such kinds of tests.

You remember Marion jones? Those are the drug testing measures the USADA implemented and Jones beat those for years. Bringing up BALCO to support your case does little for your stance on the issue. It just goes to show you that even with the best testing measures athletes have the ability to beat them...including boxers who have a CONFORMED by product of ACTUAL USADA and WADA testing procedures.

 

Manny didn't get any faster...he brought up his power and he did get bigger but it happened GRADUALLY. Manny on put on about 15 to 20 pounds of muscle over 3 plus years. That's NOT unheard of. His speed diminished a bit b/c of the weight and muscle but he is still faster than most. Just like Floyd. He's still very fast and faster than most as he's moved up over the years. Floyd still gets KO's...he did so with Ricky. THere should be new testing but it should be implemented BOXING wide and not a demand for special fighters who make up allegations.

 

This is a very relevant post here. im pretty sure alot of people will ignore this one :good

 

WRONG!

It was a duck then and it is a duck now. The dude won't even say what drug testing he agreed to. Last we hear he said,

"As long as they only take enough for testing..."

Nice way to throw a random subjective measure in there. What is "enough" according to a boxer? It is so transparent it is sad.

 

Wow how you just twist information. The "called off" was due to Manny not accepting 14 days!

 

When the fight was called off, the 14 days was not on the table. Floyd team did not re-offer the 14 days during the mediation....and yes, both sides walked away.

here you go.

So what's your point? The fight still didn't happen bcuz he didn't agree to the 14 day cut off. Then it's okay now? After Mayweather said random up until the fight? Makes no sense... only people they're convincing are those who already had their minds made up.

 

Pac hasnt agreed to the requested drug testing.
Until he does that, he cant be taken seriously.
Arum is just playing with the media and public sentiment.
Floyd has already said that all Pac has to do is "agree" and sign the paper.
That hasnt happened.
So all we get from this is a bunch of character disparaging ****.
Politics will probably break him, and eventually he will agree to everything.
Floyd will knock him out and bring Pac back to reality.

 

if mayweather wasnt afraid, he should have not demanded drug testing ang go on vacation:yep
