Deal was basically done then Froid Jr. come out with craziest demand in boxing history like blood draining.
Did you know that same thing Tommy Hearns asked Sugar Ray Leonard and that Leonard didnt take those tests?
and that Ray Leonard didnt do it
You do know that floyd would be subjected to the SAME tests right? Also, by considering this "blood draining" are you saying that all olympic athletes are "blood drained" when they perform? Do you have any idea how much blood they actually extract from an athlete? You do know that random testing up to 14 days before the fight means that authorities have the right to randomly test an athlete UP TO 14 DAYS before the fight NOT they will test you everyday until 14 days before the fight, right?
What the phuck?!? There should be an I.Q. minimum on this website.

the test is there...to make certain about the presence of drugs. The refusal isn't a failure of a test alone but that is what the mayweather wanted to paint a picture of.
The refusal is simply an outrageous protest about how mayweather can demand something that there are:
No.1 - no grounds and precedent that leads to a blood testing
no.2 - who are you to make the demand
no.3 - why is it contingent on your demand
a case in point. If somebody yells "the president is a liar, he ****d so...and so".
No.1 - would the president be readily put to a court
no.2 - is the question valid
no.3 - is a refusal an admission of guilt
answer: None of the above. Why?
In the court of law, to accuse someone of high character, you must have grounds and real proof to even make it towards phase 1:
• preliminary hearings - to find out if the "grounds and proofs" are enough to mount an impeachment trial.
In mayweather's case, he validated his own question, he imposes it and concluded it.
All are major bs.
And floyd is asking him to take the same test that he will be submitted too. Floyd isn't saying, u take the drug test and i'm sit and watch. He is taking the test too!!! Floyd is only the fighter that is getting the ring and taking the punches. If he shoudln't have say so....who should? The commission who isn't taking a single punch. The same commission who has let many fighters get away with cheating
c'mon son...proper drug testing is needed and it's a shame that floyd had to be the 1 to say so in lieu of the commision.

It is just pure comedy to suggest that a tablespoon of blood is considered blood draining. This is just to amusing!

Quite frankly I'm a bit pissed that PBF brought up the issue of OST with no grounds, but I'm even more pissed that Team Pacquiao didn't accept.
As a world class athlete you're held to a different standard. It comes with the territory. So although there may be no justification for the testing, as a world class athlete it's some what unethical to refuse more stringent anti-doping testing. You have a responsibility to erase all doubt about your performance being ehanced by banned and/or illegal substances even if those claims are unjustified.
For example, look what the WADA did to Usain Bolt. Usain never had a history of doping or testing positive for any banned substances, but when he started breaking records all over the world he was subjected to more stringent anti-doping tests. As a world class athlete, Usain gladly accepted these heightened tests to prove that he was not using any form of PED's. He didn't say, "this is unjustified, I have no history of ever testing positive for any banned substances", he said something more along the lines of, "you can test me any day of the week, I'm clean".
Granted in my example, it was the WADA organization not a rival athlete that imposed the heightened testing requirements on Usain Bolt, but my point is an athlete of Usain's, Pacquiao's, Mayweather's, Tiger's, or any world-class athlete's stature is going to be held to a higher standard. As such, personally they should have an open-door policy in regards to anti-doping testing irrespective of which organization their sport is governed by.
