The executive director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission reports that he has received 15 drug test results conducted on Floyd Mayweather Jr and Shane Mosley who face off at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Sunday morning Manila Time in a fight to be telecast by Solar Sports with pound-for-pound king and ?Fighter of the Decade? Manny Pacquiao sitting in on the panel.
Pacquiao whose megabuck super-fight with Mayweather fell through after Mayweather demanded USADA random drug tests up to 14 days before their planned May 1 fight and Pacquiao offered to have a 24 day cutoff with tests to be conducted in his dressing room right after the fight to prove he had nothing to hide in the wake of unsubstantiated allegations by the Mayweather camp and Golden Boy Promotions that the Filipino boxing hero was on performance enhancing drugs.
Pacquiao believes, as many fight experts do, that should Mayweather beat Mosley he will face Pacquiao sometime in November and used the drug test issue to get a good tune-up fight before facing Pacquiao who claimed Mayweather was scared of fighting him and losing his undefeated record.
The random drug tests were agreed upon by both fighters and were conducted by the United States Anti Doping Agency or USADA.
Kizer informed insidesports.ph, Standard Today and Viva Sports that the USADA had sent the random drug tests which included blood tests directly to him.
He disclosed that the results of 8 random drug tests on Mosley and 7 on Mayweather Jr were all negative.
Kizer earlier told us that the urinalysis conducted by the NSAC on both fighters were also clean and had no trace of any illegal substances.
Both Mosley and Mayweather Jr made their grand entrances at the lobby of the MGM Grand but while the crowds were there as usual there wasn't the kind of emotion and fanaticism that marked the arrival of Pacquiao for his past fights.
One noticeable fact was that Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer appeared to be more attentive to Mayweather than to Mosley who is a partner of Golden Boy Promotions.
