I have no idea how fans can cast the stones at Floyd

lol at Mayweather for asking a level playing field when he's fighting a former flyweight.

If Pacquiao fought Bradley at 147, Manny will be crucified for sure.

 

That means jack **** when he just destoryed a good fighter in Cotto...and I doubt that people would do that...Hell, they''re even calling for the Bradley\Pac fight so whats the point of telling that bold face lie?

 

could care less what weight class he used to fight in...right now manny is the best in the world and he packs a dangerous punch..of course u wanna make sure he not on the juice NI33A!

 

I don't think it's a bogus excuse, check out the Pacquiao video on youtube taken from Pinoy tv post Morales 1 fight. Every reason why Pac has psychological issues with blood testing is right there for all to see. This isn't something he's made up on the spot.

 

My post is a specified reply to your comment that Floyd isn't dictating the rules because he's willing to take the exact same testing.

The point is that Pac isn't willing to yield to those terms because he believes that he will be effected by the testing while Mayweather obviously doesn't have the same concerns.

Not everybody is unscathed by blood testing and apparently Pac falls into that grouping. So how is it fair to him to have to subject himself to a testing method that could effect his performance when the same tests apparently wouldn't effect his opponent's?

 

:rofl So now the test is going to effect his performance? I guessing you believed the wrong socks threory as well?

Thats not the point...Given all of the weak excuses that came from team Pacman is the reason why Pac is getting looked at differently...Roach has said on record that they didnt want to be test within 3 days before the fight....Its on record dude...I'm not making this up so they then came up with 14 day window...Thats more than enough time to gather yourself! Whats the big issue with that???

If Manny's team would have been more stern and more vocal about not taking the test from the get go...Maybe you'll have a case but with all of the flip flopping answers that came from Team Pac...didnt do him any justice.

And again...Show me were a fighter cant request for a stricter drug test if he believes his opponent is on something...You've yet to answer that!

 

1. They said the tests would effect him mentally: That's a lie. It didn't bother him in Hatton fight.

2. They said he didn't feel comfortable taking a test within 30 days of a fight: That's a lie, because we know he took a blood test within 30 days of the Hatton fight.

3. They wanted at least 3 days before the fight and Mayweather offered 14 days and they refused.

Which one of those are not bogus?

 

Interesting that you would refer to someone who exchanges in hand to hand combat as a "*****" if he or she is reluctant to take blood tests.

 

I am not sure but was it 24 days, and not 14 days? Team Mayweather based that 14 days to that video, which they thought happened 14 days before Pac fights with Hatton. When it was found out that it was 24 days, I think Pacquiao then offered that 24 days instead, from 30 days prior to the fight, as its compromise to the random testing idea of Mayweather.

 

it wasn't the steroid testing itself, it was the fact that if he DID do it, he was essentially "giving in" to floyd's testing demand, thereby showing weakness...

all ego vs ego really

also, the 40 million dollars thing, I'm pretty sure by now pac is pretty rich from all his other fights, and the dollar is worth like a bazillion in the philippines, so it isn't illogical to believe that he had grown complacent when it comes to money. Diminishing marginal utility

 

I ask you this..what if Pac is in fact affected by blood tests? What if he agreed to the testing as suggested by team Mayweather and as a result he entered the ring weakened and lethargic?

Furthermore, what if Pac isn't on PED's and never was? Would compromising his absolute peak performance be worth proving his innocence especially when there's no tangible evidence or reason to believe that he's guilty of doping?

 

This is all opinion...With that being said, it still doesnt erase the fact that Manny's team have had a serious of outrages answers when asked about the test.

To answer your question...I dont think that it will affect him at all...If thats the case why was he able to do away with Hatton in great fashion if the so called needles affected his performance...Lets not forget that Manny was on film giving blood 2 weeks prior to the bout with Hatton...Now you see why I'm not buying the excuses...I've stated several times that I'm not accusing Manny of doping but the **** he and his team are coming up with sounds kinda pathetic!

 

yeah but what about Floyd agreeing to the 10 million overweight penalty and 8oz gloves???
