    there you go. this really is bigger then mayweather's demands. stricter testing hepls prevent guys form getting away with taking illegal substance and fighting. mosley admitted to using peds yet the man never failed a test. now you can only imagine how many other guys got away with using ****.

    Exactly! What will it take, a fighter being killed by somebody who tests positive to get everybody on board?

    It's also just a simple matter of pride. Why the **** should Mayweather dictate terms in anything boxing? Is he the head of a commission? Is he undisputed in all boxing organizations? He doesn't even have a belt.

    Because if Floyd has a problem with the way fighters are tested he should petition the commission for change rather than point the finger at Pacquiao with no proof whatsoever.

    Personally I think that's pretty cowardly and underhanded to try and tarnish someones career like that.

    If your'e going to do it Floyd, do it with some proof or make a case for Olympic testing to the commission.

    Why Pacquiao doesn't want to take the test shouldn't even be an issue.

    you have a very good point about mayweather, however the fact that pac refused to take the test 2 weeks is an issue becuase thats what is preventing the fight in the first place.

    Why is Mayweather above boxing?

    Commissions are there for a reason. They are paid (millions?) of dollars for a reason and that is to regulate the testing. IF THE COMMISSION REQUIRE MANNY PACQUIAO TO TAKE RANDOM TESTING THEN SO BE IT.

    It's Mayweather's place to fight/Box NOTHING ****ING ELSE.
    He's not above our sport.

    So following that logic, if Pacquaio had a problem with the commission fines regarding coming in over weight, he should have petitioned the commission and not asked for millions per pound.

    That is your opinion and nothing more. It's also a **** poor excuse and doesn't answer the OP's question. Since your "Pacquiao Edition" Rose Colored Glasses won't allow you to see straight, I'll answer the question for you.

    It's not nor was it ever unreasonable and it's pathetic for a fight of this magnitude to be called off because of it.

    Because religion is given special privileges.

    The weak minded need it, and to put their God on trial makes it seem like he is not a God.

    And that would be the final nail in the coffin for a bunch of dorks.

    Thank you for your input. And while we are at it, can you tell me what kind of gear that a person could take for 24 days and get REAL results and pass a post fight blood test and unlimited urine tests ? Could you also tell me the name of this miracle substance, cause I wanna get some !!!

    Your assuming that he needs the money. Maybe you do, maybe I do, but I'm not really sure that he needs it. And also like has been said above, Pac did agree to a 24 day cutoff. Can you tell me what roids that you can take for 24 days with REAL results that would yield a negative post fight blood test and unlimited urine tests ?

    Can you tell me why he was passing the tests ???

    If he used then passed the commissions test, then one can argue that the tests were/are not sufficient.

    He used substances that were not, at that time, tested for by anyone, so therefore undetectable. Nor were they on the banned substances list. So you see, it wasn't a boxing issue, it was more of a gray area for all sports, since no one knew that these compounds even existed !!!
