Was Facing Mayweather Pacquiao's Opportunity At Ending The Steroid Controversy?

Deliberate.

 

yep..it was a golden oppurtunity to clear his name(if he's clean)..a lawsuit just makes him look guilty..and signing a fight less than a week later for less money makes him look even more guilty..only *******s will disagree

 

That is the most nonsensical poll I have yet seen in ESB.

 

Hell yeah. Floyd as usual doesn't help, but, Manny had to step up to the plate.

 

Come back in two years. You'll get it then.

 

No, if he tests clean and loses (very high probability) people will say "he wasn't able to use his juice".

 

Well then they would be saying he never would have won fair. If he tested clean then he tested clean.

 

I voted for No. Unless Pac KOs Mayweather in a spectacular fashion, people would still find something to smear his name with. Pac tests negative, some people will say he isn't that stupid to use PEDs now but he definitely used it before. Should Floyd wins, Pac loses his P4P crown, will probably take a hit on the ATG ratings, and some people will say he lost because he is not on PEDs. Pac wins by decision, they'll say he can't KO Floyd because he isn't on PEDs. In a way, what Mayweather did (i.e. accuse Pac of PEDs use) is a very clever in an evil kind of way because he put Pac in an almost no win situation should they fight. He just didn't ex[ect that Pac can walk away from the negotiations.

 

Absolutely,it`s 2010 for christ sake.People talk like manny comes from a third world country,BS.He knows exactly what he was up against here and thats why he ****ed off.Somebody accuses you of something & a 2 minute test will clear your name,c`mon.The court case is laughable.If Pacquiao dodges this fight now history will assume he was guilty of PED use ,period.

 

Only idiots suspect him of cheating in the first place, so there's no way to convince them otherwise. They're idiots, after all.

Regardless of that, it's literally impossible to prove he's not using and/or never has used steroids. Idiots will just assume he's on something undetectable or that he doesn't use them while under drug testing.

 

Perfectly stated.

 

You give yourself too much credit. Your poll does not make any sense.

 

What, the steroid controversy that Mayweather started?

Get to ****.

 

Somehow I envision that even if Pac took the tests 14 days out and consequently fought and defeated Mayweather, that there still would be people here and in other places that will say that Pac could have/did take PED's in the 2 week window leading up to the fight.

 

You're the only ******, son.
