    The boxing world disagrees with it, considering what they got for their support was arguably the fight of the year.

    The boxing community supported the fight whole heartedly and came out in their numbers to support it. This support was also reflected on the huge ppv sales the fight generated.

    So cut the bull**** about no one with a right mind disagrees with that decision.

    Also don't you find it telling that as a reporter you let your personal feelings conflict with your so called professional credentials as a reporter.

    I quote.

    "I don't feel his court date should have been moved"

    Then you sir are clearly not a fan of boxing.

    Also it doesn't matter what you feel should or shouldn't have happened as it really doesn't concern you anymore than it concerns the dog next door. So because you were not happy with the judges verdict you decide to boycott the fight and you expect people to take you seriously:patsch

    2 VADA related stories and 2 CSAC tested fighters in Cavalcante and Tarver. Learn to keep score. Oh, I also broke a USADA related story (helpful tip: VADA/USADA test in the same lab. You're welcome).

    Knowing how to count and read is essential to keeping score.

    So let me get this straight, you think Boxing should come before the law? I mean if a Man beat the **** out of your mom, and had his court date pushed back or his jail sentence pushed back you would support that?

    Some people do not like the idea of a man putting his hands on a woman I know I sure as **** dont, especially one that has been trained in boxing his entire life I mean what kind of piece of **** do you have to be to do that?


    Just because Floyd is a star that doesnt mean he should get a free pass nor does it mean the law should bend when it comes to him **** him he broke the ****ing law he is a criminal at this stage the judge shouldnt have pushed the date back should have basically told his ass he needs to serve his time now.

    I approve of what Montoya is doing because, unless PED's are made available in equal dosages to all fighters, then the level playing field in boxing is destroyed.

    I don't care about the health consequences. Like Jose Canseco says, the PED's can be taken safely if the right combinations of substances are administered at proper dosing levels by medical or biological science professionals. Then it's not necessarily a health hazard.

    But what sucks is when Fighter A gets the edge on Fighter B just because the former has the funding (i.e., big promotional bucks) and the latter lacks it (i.e., just an opponent, or a guy who's style isn't right for TV, so nobody finances his career).

    We have got to protect the level playing field in pro competition. Period. That means the bigwigs who are doping at the expense of their less fortunate rivals need to be exposed.

    Bazooka stop dick riding, kick back and shut the **** up. This guy could say the sun was green and you would believe it.

    How the hell does floyd getting his date pushed back, which actually benefits the sport so he can fight in a major ppv that year, butthurt a boxing reporter so bad that out of moral principle he decides not to cover the fight:lol:

    Just writing it is laughable.

    Arum has been caught bribing officials, yet to this day he is allowed to promote major events with millions of dollars at stake.

    Surely out of moral principle you should not pay for another top rank fight Arum is involved in, so the integrity of the sport remains intact.

    As a huge fan of the sport I wonder how many Bob Arum promoted fights has he missed. :lol:

    Let's make this simple.
    Who believes designer steroids went away with Balco?


    Even with Nonito going 24/7/365 people are discounting it because of this very reason. He works with someone known to beat the tests. Indeed Peterson and Berto apparently called for extra testing thinking they could 'beat' the system.


    So Nonito, and all those working with Conte, are now suspect even with additional testing yet we can't question whether GBP's private testing contract is suspicious? One they won't release the terms of?

    Floyd, so we are reminded daily now, is the highest paid athlete in the world. He can't be doing designer drugs? He can't be beating the tests? He can't have a private contract tailored to what the client asked for?


    Hence the need for full transparency. It isn't about the testing protocols. It is about the truth. If you want to blindly believe that someone can't be cheating the system then that is your prerogative. Just drop the facade of impartiality when it comes to your favorite fighter.

    And Conte could tell Gabe the sky was purple and Gabe would believe it.

    Gabe just hates Floyd and even if the USADA did show the contracts, it'd be onto the next thing for him to whine about.

    Just like how the anti-Mayweather group rambled for months about CIR testing and then the USADA stated that Floyd did do the CIR tests, now it's onto the next thing :patsch

    And this is exactly why any contracts between a testing agency and a promotional company should be disclosed.

    Arum taught Delahoya this game the promotional aspect of it, as they say the Apple doesnt fall far from the tree.

    Come on man that ain't got nothing to do with boyccotting a fight. Especially if your job is that of a boxing journalist. That's a little disturbing. You might as well boycott James Kirkland, Mike Tyson, Diego Corrales, Arturo Gatti and hundreds and hundreds of other boxers who have broken the law. Truth is, you have to be really butthurt to single out one fighter to boycott over something like that.

    So we're not allowed to boycott the fights of fighters we genuinely dislike? That seems to be the whole premise behind what you're saying. Meanwhile, Montoya's name is now linked with THREE major boxing stories as relates to PEDS, while you remain a troll on a boxing website with a username stolen from another poster. Goddam what a waste of human flesh you must be.

    :lol::lol:

    If it is a genuine dislike then let's be honest about, don't pretend you are boycotting a fight due to moral principle:lol:

    If you had been following this thread you would have read that Gabe didn't follow the Mayweather V Cotto fight out of moral principle that came first as a man rather than as a reporter.

    I would like to know whether he covered Mike Tyson fight after he was convicted of ****.
