    Yes, but I'm just wondering what the specific reason was for the cut off dates, if he wasn't hiding anything.

    And yet here you are, providing 10% of the content in this thread (with 6 of the 60 posts so far) over this 'dead' subject.

    Hilarious.

    Great post!

    Fighters need to be tested randomly all year round.

    But this doesn't explain why 14 days wasn't acceptable at first if this was the reason. Which is y ppl keep trying to make up excuses of Pac having his feelings hurt. Or not looking to give into Mayweather's demands because his team was scared of him.

    gyll,

    Floyd Snr accused Manny of cheating, and Floyd ran with it and wanted OSDT based on those unsubstantiated claims. So Manny wasn't asked anything. He was backed into a corner, and later sued for defamation of character.

    How is it ALARMING?

    He'd been accused of cheating, with NO PROOF, and Floyd demanded something that he'd never demanded before from any other fighter after being a pro for 13 years!

    Of course it's relevant that he was willing to be blood tested after the fight.

    In a 9 week camp -

    with a 14 day cut off, realistically he'd have only had a week to use something.

    Weeks 1-7 = He'd be randomly tested for blood and urine.

    Week 9 = fight week. He couldn't have risked taking anything in the last week, because it would have shown up in the after fight test.

    Weeks 7-8 = A free window to do as he pleased.

    What would have been the point?

    You can apply the same logic to a 21 day cut off, and a 30 day cut off.

    What benefits would he have gained?

    That's why I don't think he needed a specific window to cheat.

    To believe Manny was innocent you have to go back and ignore every laughably stupid excuse Team Pac came out with...and then retroactively assign Pacquiao the best excuse possible (even though nobody ****ing said that at the time). Just look at the fantasy revisionist history you have to believe to wash Manny's hands. Me I blame everyone involved on both sides. To attempt to exonterate Manny, the *******s have to believe a bunch of conspiracy theory idiocy and then add additional unstated excuses to a list that is already dozens of excuses long.

    In a debate, when one side needs a ****load of fact-twisting and conspiracy theories to validate their point, which side is usually right? :rofl

    Again, I don't know if he was on PEDS. But you had him being accused by Mayweather, he agreed to reduce the cutoff several times, finally agreeing to no cutoff.

    Now he's been KTFO, sees everyone is doing RBT, perhaps he suspects Marquez - could be that he now feels he must do it as it's caught on with many others.

    Of course, the above is all speculation, as is your insinuation. Only they know - but point is there is an obvious explanation as to why he'd do it now as opposed to back then when no one was doing it and Mayweather was throwing accusations around.

    I started boycotting with the guerrero fight. I still believe it did less than 1 million ppv sales, they are just not releasing official numbers for business reasons. HBO and TOP Rank are :rofl.

    If i keep telling other fans that the gym why i'm not buying into his conning of money, then they might not buy them either.

    Bang on!

    People like to make out that all Floyd did was ask Manny to be tested. They must have short memories. In 2009 Manny was backed into a corner.
