No announcement yet.
Has anyone at the Mayweather Camp commented on Mickey Bey's doping?

The way people are acting on this thread, you'd think that it was Floyd himself who had been tested positive. Is Floyd responsible for another fully grown man's actions???
Unbelievable.

That just doesn't make sense. Lance Armstrong meant more to American sports than any boxer ever aside from maybe Muhammad Ali.
Because that strawman argument has been dismantled on here countless times already, and with nearly 10,000 posts I imagine you must have seen that before.
Whatever questions there are about Floyd failing tests don't relate to a USADA 'cover-up'. They instead focus on two issues, the possibility that Floyd (unlike these other jackasses) had his paperwork done and has an official the****utic use exemption for testosterone replacement therapy.
The second is that the contractual relationship between USADA and their boxing clients revealed in the Morales case cast serious doubt on the transparency of the testing procedures as a whole. The master contracts that have been seen between GBP and USADA leave significant scope for the restriction of information that might be damaging. In other words, stuff that falls into that gray area like TRT.

why are people tripping about Floyd saying something when he hardly ever says anything? There have been a million failed test since he started doing it and he hasnt really spoke on any of them. No one said anything then but now because its someone in his camp, he has to speak out? Again, I could see if he's been going hard on all these failed test guys but he never says anything for the most part

USADA doesn't have a contract with Armstrong's Team USPS or whatever, but with the international cycling body. By pursuing Armstrong they were doing exactly what their employer wants them to do. Remember it took them over 10 years to nab him, partly cause the previous cycling body people were not as gung ho.
By pursuing any boxer, they're making their employer GBP pretty unhappy and just asking to be kicked out of boxing. Remember how upset Schaefer was about Berto and Peterson, just for the fights falling through?

I asked Chris Robinson to ask Floyd Sr about that but he didn't. It's funny because he has many interviews with Floyd Sr and he asks him about pretty much anything that goes on in the sport.
