This testing is fine with me, but I don't think Pacquiao is going to agree to this.  Mayweather is trying to take the position that any future fight involving him will be subject to this kind of testing, but Manny Pacquiao's promoter, Bob Arum, said after the Clottey fight that he wasn't even going to negotiate on the drug testing issue. Since Pacquiao is now the more marketable fighter, not Floyd, it doesn't look like the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight is going to happen unless Floyd backs down from this requirement. It would be a travesty if that fight can't be made over something as stupid as this. Those fighters and their managers are going to feel like complete idiots if one of the fighters loses a fight or suffers an untimely accident that prevents them from fighting and each earning a sure $40 million + payday.  These guys are great fighters, but they are not necessarily the sharpest knives in the drawer.
