    Adam Morrison is an NBA champion.

    Tell Pacquiao to take the freaking blood test once Mayweather is through with Mosley.

    Then we can finally end this debate over who is better. Unless he is juicing, there is no reason why he can't take the blood test.

    That's enough time to filter drugs out of the system and you know it. Random testing all the way up to the fight is the right thing. Pac turned down the biggest payday of his career to avoid taking drug tests. How does that look?

    Read this part:

    Arum said Pacquiao agreed to shorten the window for a blood test to 24 days before the fight. In order to receive a Nevada boxing license, Pacquiao took the standard annual blood test 24 days before his May 2009 fight with Ricky Hatton.

    "Manny accepted what was on the table and Mayweather rejected it," Arum said. "Haymon and Schaefer tried to convince Floyd all [Tuesday night] and [Wednesday] and he wouldn't agree to it. He didn't want the fight. He never wanted the fight. I always knew the fight wouldn't happen."

    With the number of pro athletes that are cheating anything other then a random test is pointless.

    you need to read the link I just posted too. How about a blood test right after the fight? would the drugs be filtered out till then? he agreed to that.

    what good does that do? the fight has already happened. if you lose a fight to a guy who was cheating, you still lost in front of the world.

    i can not imagine why anyone would balk at random drug testing for a fight like this unless they had something to hide.

    Now why would someone embarrass themselves by coming out dirty after a fight?

    I guess Margarito came out just fine after they found the plastered hands? :rolleyes:

    That's what it said so no I think I read it right. If you have nothing to hide then agree to the blood tests. It's as simple as that.

    I love boxing, always have -but Paq (POF) fans make it really tough sometimes.

    seriously. it's super simple. it's the fight of the century. and the only reason it didn't happen is because one fighter wanted full-out Olympic style drug testing...and the other fighter wouldn't agree to it.

    Because he doesn't have to submit to a Chicken **** fighter and his mandates. It's not Manny's problem. Floyd is lucky to get to fight him.

    Manny is already rich so why it doesn't bother him. Why should he go out of his way to please the CHALLENGER?

    honestly, this is so weak. this fight would have been the most hyped and would have had the biggest purse ever. it's a dream fight for both fighters. stop pretending it's just another fight for pac. that's the POF talking.

    You forget who's all about the money and not about the fighting.
