    It's far from a random article, there's **** on there about Martinez should ask for rehydration clauses and whatever, but I guess that's not the point.. I looked on there long before I joined here, the news on there is pretty shitty and opinion based from what I've seen.

    Wait, he tweeted all of that? Then why does the article say Exclusive by Geoffrey Ciani. :huh

    I bet if Floyd managed to get internet in his jail cell and tweeted the article then he'd read it.

    Never said I refused to read it, I asked if there was another article written elsewhere.. :huh

    No, I'm questioning why all the other news he's 'broken' has been verified or reported on by others while this USADA and Floyd story has yet to be confirmed or have anything else reported on it.. Is that not reasonable to compare the situations and ask a question?

    I agree. Which is why I never read the front page, either. I only came across that article when Ciani posted it in this forum. And when I read it, thankfully I found it to be very informative and legit. Like I said, it has detailed accounts from people that were there in the dressing rooms.

    What?

    No, he didn't tweet all of that. That - Hill's account of what happened - is just an extract from the article. Geoffrey Ciani wrote the whole thing, and Montoya just tweeted it; encouraging his followers to read it.

    :lol:

    Floyd: "Let's clean up the sport"
    Fans: "Yaaay :happy"

    Montoya: "Check out this interesting article on PED cheats"
    Fans: "Go away, you Bob Arum puppet :hi:"

    Floyd is quite the leader and role model.

    And I read it after you quoted it, very informative.. But that's not Montoya's article..

    Good **** he's encouraging people to read it.. But don't you think he's getting too much credit if he's just urging people to read an article.. I mean you're doing the same thing and you're not getting patted on the back. :D

    I've not seen any threads on here with a Montoya article on Chavez Jr/Lee drug testing.. Most posters get their information from here or the scene. I find it completely reasonable for posters to believe he hasn't reported on it since anything else he writes gets multiple threads.. That being said he apparently did report on it, and I can admit I was incorrect in believing he didn't.

    Pretty much it in a nutshell.

    As a fan you're supposed to encourage anything that would help clean up the whole sport. Not encourage certain things that help to clean up the whole sport, as long as they haven't apparently said something about a fighter you like.

    Are you for real? The only reason people are even having a conversation about Montoya covering Top Rank stories is because you and Pimp C insinuated he would never said anything about a Top Rank fighter. You bought the whole thing up, AGAIN discrediting someone, who is actively trying to do something positive to clean up boxing, by accusing them of being in cahoots with someone who is known to dislike Floyd Mayweather. :patsch

    Pimp C questioned him writing about Chavez Jr, I laughed saying it's because he's a Top Rank fighter..

    The post you quoted of mines is basically saying he did write one on the Rubio fight, and he did link to one on the Lee fight although he didn't write one.. I am not the sole person who believed he didn't write one on JCC Jr, nor was I the one who brought up JCC Jr. What are you quoting that and :patsch for again?

    Have you responded to my other post yet?
