    Those of you watching it on TV, where are you all in the Mosley fight? That firstrow link has it at the end of Rd 5/start of Rd 6. I''m just wondering how big the lag is there

    No lag here. But the main event might be a different story

    I've been enlightened RichmondRedskin88...(yes, I googled it)

    I never knew that's how it originatedI actually have a lot of friends who are big fans of the club that use the term.

    Regarding the world cup in Qatar, I don't think it'll be a disaster. It's the 21st century; world class infrastructures can be built anywhere in the world if the money is there & money won't be an issue for a global event such as the world cup.

    However, WC in December is weird. It's like moving football season to April...just feels weird.

    Like I've said previously there is a reason Olympic testing is random and they don't tell the athlete's when the limits are. With the amounts of money at stake I'm sure chemicals can be dosed to clear testing times if the athletes knew then in advance.

    Also 14 days prefight is plenty of time to recover "strength" lost by a tiny blood sample. An hour would be enough.

    If there are ways to easily get around testing like you say, how come Floyd was so generous in giving Pac 14 days? There's nothing random about that. And what prevents Pac from juicing for 13 days before the fight? Maybe Floyd should stick to 1 requirement; random or no fight.

    Don't you think?

    Who doesn't feel weak when they have to cut back on the roids to take a drug test? They aren't taking pints of blood man, it's a sample. Thousands of athletes do this all the time. Floyd was even willing to give him 14 days instead of just plain random, but apparently that isn't enough time to flush the HGH and roids out of his system and still show up strong enough.

    I don't know much about testing, hgh, or roids. But what's the problem with Pac's approach of 20 days before and right after the fight? Shouldn't that reveal if he's using or not?

    Maybe the guy is superstitious about his approach, many athletes are. I know it sounds lame but you never know. Maybe I'm naive but I would rather give him the benefit of the doubt until I see some type of evidence that he's cheating.

    Which is all well and dandy... well except for one thing. Why is Olympic style testing a deal breaker for Manny?

    I remember reading somewhere that Roach and Pacquiao didn't want to feel weak days before the fight. Apparently that's what he experiences when he does blood tests.

    If true, I think that's fair. Especially for a man that has never been suspected of juicing.
