[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV7-yUSVGho&feature=player_embedded[/ame] I dont know if this video has been posted yet but listen to what Teddy Atlas has to say about what he heard from a very reliable souce. Fast forward to about the 7:00 mark. Sound pretty suspect to me...
You really think a member of Pacquiao's camp would be stupid enough to send an email like that? Knowing full well the Mayweather camp would go straight to the press with it, given the accusations they've been making.
URINALYSIS does not detect certain PEDs like BLOOD TESTS. See, I even bolded the two so you can tell the difference. How hard is it to understand?
So then what the **** is all the hype about? He has taken a ton of urine tests and he has passed them all, why would he all the sudden try to hide something over a urine test? That is ******ed. He didn't give blood to nevada, just urine. Dumb hype job.
They're not hiding anything ... I think this is a ploy to hype the fight through various sports media outlets and build up the anticipation for this fight. The peak time for a big fight is early summer or late fall/early winter. They didn't have much time for a proper promotion but getting both of their names out there will leave enough time to build up for the fight. I think that seriously they are taking a big risk fighting Clottey because that could mess up 10's of millions of dollars for Pacquiao.
Are youo frigging serious? What the hell do you want to do to this guy? Test his hair, his blood, his urine, his sperm, his skin? Gimme a break. The fact is that Pac has backed out of this fight because these are unusual and insulting requests that one fighter has absolutely no right to make of another. It would be different if a sanctioning body demanded these tests, but that is not the case.
This is quite possible...probably even likely. But what Mayweather didn't anticipate was that Pac would be so insulted by these unusual requests that he would pull out of the fight altogether.
If an email like that was sent, wouldnt mayweather have exposed it everywhere with proof. Pac denied such a email, so could have proved him wrong. I suppose pac would just say he didnt know about it. Its just another rumour
What kind of steroid can you take for 3 weeks that would be out of his system immediately for a post fight blood test. Come on man, a 3 week steroid cycle while the spotlight is on you by the whole boxing community. WTF kind of steroids will do any good in 3 weeks and not be detected by the random urine test and a post fight blood test ???
