    The loose-lipped uncle of boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. is making accusations once again. Roger Mayweather, who trains his nephew Floyd, told Las Vegas Boxing Examiner Chris Robinson that the only reason Amir Khan has become successful is because he’s on stuff just like Manny Pacquiao. The Pacquiao accusations are nothing new (Manny has actually sued him over his remarks), but the Khan ones are.
    Khan responded to Roger’s accusations by defending himself. “I’ve consistently proved that I am a clean fighter. This is nonsense. I’ve been tested repeatedly in my career, before and after fights, at home and my base in Los Angeles.
    “Don’t forget that I came through the Olympics (in 2004) where testing is very thorough. I’ve never refused the test, even though I could have done so when I received an unannounced knock on the door a month after my last fight against Paul McCloskey.”
    Khan then took things a step further, turning the tables on the Mayweather camp. Khan accused Floyd of using something to prepare for his fight with Oscar De La Hoya.

    “It’s not for me to say but quite a few people over here wondered if Floyd was on something when he fought Oscar De La Hoya because he suddenly looked so much bigger.”

    He's entitled to his opinion, and I don't know that anyone could flatly deny the possibility, all I would say in defense is that he has twice (since this time) submitted to full OSDT, and will continue to do so going forward. Was he dirty then...who knows, it's possible, but he has demonstrated that he is more than willing to test and do so completely, so I don't see it as a concern as of now.

    Khans coming out with a lot of bull****, don't know if he actually said that though. He talks the talk but he didn't dispatch a nobody in McCloskey very disappointed, at this level he should be wiping those boys away. Khan you have yet to impress me with a boxing brain, he has the skill, talent but fails to impress me anymore, don't question his heart.

    Mayweather was usually small in that fight, and Oscars size made it a lil rough at times for lil Floyd, maybe it just seemed that way cause Oscar was clearly around the high 160's, low 170's in that fight.
