    :good

    It is currently ranked #2 on the all-time boxing ***** move list.

    #1 is Floyd Mayweaher Jr. making all this bitchy fuss about PEDs in the first place.

    No because he wasn't in the position that PBF was in. He didn't have the pull to or the options, he needed the big payday that he was going to get vs Pac. With that said JMM did indeed request testing but was turned down by Pac. Later Pac requests testing for Rios. Why decline for PBF and JMM but request for Rios? ****ing hypocrite.

    Not in the position ? Come on now ,they had a rivalry ..Marquez didn't need any excuses or extra testing he was confident in his skills !

    That's what a warrior does he doesn't make excuses or create roadblocks !

    And why did Manny turn down Floyd's request well I'm assuming the same reason he asked for 50-50 split ..He probably felt like who are you to demand extra testing ..In other words ego but again Floyd should have done what Marquez did and just said **** it I know I can beat this guy and went on and proved it !

    First off asking for a drug test is not a road block, it was going to be given to both fighters. Secondly, PBF didn't know that Pac would object especially when Roach came out saying drug testing wouldn't be a problem initially..

    Extra drug testing is a roadblock when it had never been done based on an accusation with no proof .

    And didn't Manny eventually agree with a 14 day cut off ?

    Than what happens he now has to leave his promoter


    If those aren't roadblocks I don't know what is .

    Drug testing to ensure both fighters are clean for the biggest fight of this era is not a road block. Was it a road bloick when Pac wanted Rios to test? Pac asking PBF to pay him 10,000,000 dollars if he came in over is a road block it was excessive.:deal Even still PBF agreed to it.

    Freddie Roach always says ridiculous things and contradicts himself.

    After Pacquiao beat De La Hoya and Hatton:

    "Oscar was drained, he could barely move around the track"
    "For a world champ, Ricky Hatton was not very good"
    "Cotto isn't the same after the Margarito fight"


    Then later he goes "why do people always say things to criticize Manny's wins? After he beats Cotto, people will have an excuse as to why it wasn't good".

    Another good one was when he said "Cotto won't make it out of the 1st round" and then a week later says "I don't see Manny knocking Cotto out, it will go the full 12"

    I pretty much agree with Roach on this point.

    It takes a lot of courage to stand in range looking to trade and get your own shots off. It also takes a lot of skill to fight that way without getting caught too often and knocked out.

    Mayweather's whole defensive style has evolved around a fear of getting caught and knocked out. He will always be over cautious and look to shut his opponent out rather than stand his ground, come forward and trade punches.

    Credit to him, he's superb at what he does, but it does make for boring fights. Boxing maybe a sport, but above all else it's entertainment and the fans will always want to see two highly skilled warriors going toe to toe. For most fans the overly cautious, defensive style just isn't as much fun to watch.

    If you had told me there would be no drug testing than yes I would have agreed with you but that was not the case .Floyd wanted something that had never been done based on a accusation. The current testing has caught all the drug cheats the need for extra testing had no reason to be implemented ..And that weight limit penalty is an Arum negotiation tool he used when He was negotiating with Wright for his fight w/ Floyd ..Floyd was no stranger to that that's why he agreed .

    But like I said Manny eventually agreed then the new issue of his promoter came up.

    He didn't ask for something that had never been done. Tyson thought Evander was on the juice and asked Holyfield for extra testing. Zab asked Mosley for extra testing. The point is if you have nothing to hide drug testing should be the last thing that gets in the way of a fight. Purse splits are a reason but drug testing isn't. Also why did Pac agree to these test to fight Rios but not for PBF? You have to see how badly that makes him look.
