    Pacquiao is enrolled in the VADA Clean Boxing Program. That means that he can be tested at any time year round and has been according to Sean Gibbons.

    Pacquiao has been tested by VADA 5X and has badly hurt or dropped opponents in each of those contests. Pacquiao took Floyd's drug testing and stunned and hurt Floyd twice in their fight.

    Floyd received 750 ml of IV fluids. IV bags are typically 50 ml.

    There's a very fine line between obsession and love, so fine it's sometimes hard to distinguish. And here you are (whoever you are) banging on about a retired boxer whose detractors largely wish to forget ever existed, and fans have moved on from, in the main. But not you. No, you barf up another alt to bring his name back onto the agenda. So which is it? Obsession or love?

    I think it might be the latter...

    Stop it! IV bags can come in many different sizes 1000ml 750ml 500 ml 250 ml 100ml & 50ml.
    Pac isn't being testing by VADA for this fight so according to you that means he's dirty.

    Exactly! PBF haters have made him rich but they're too stupid to see it. They claim they hate him but can't help themselves from talking about him. Not only that they make alts in order to do it. They're clearly obsessed and simply can't get over him even though he's been retired since 2016. Kinda like a guy who got dumped in a relationship who claims to hate his ex but keeps stalking her. They need therapy.

    Are you dumb? Pacquiao is enrolled in VADA's Clean Boxing Program and Sean Gibbons has said that he's been tested by VADA. We don't know why VADA isn't being used. Maybe it's because PBC is hemorrhaging money and Pac's purse demands are high. He's making a minimum of $20 million before PPV buys and they're buying very expensive time slots on prime time television (not relegated to subscription channels) for advertising.

    Maybe the NSAC wants to make money. Here's Tim Bradley on drug testing for their third fight:

    "Just to clear things up, Manny didn't care what testing we were doing. He was willing to do VADA or WADA, so there was no argument as far as the testing goes. The NSAC decided they didn't want to do VADA representing us. They wanted to do the same that we did in the Marquez fight, WADA [World Anti-Doping Agency] which was very successful in that fight. So they wanted to stick with it and not mess around with VADA."

    Wait a minute, I thought VADA was the cheaper testing option? Atleast that's what you said, not it's because it cost too much??? LMFAO every fight it's something new for you to try and spin. First USADA is too expensive now VADA is?? Which one is it? Face it your boy Pac will be juiced to the gills in this fight there's no way around it.

    I have no idea why VADA isn't being used, but I gave you a clear example of the NSAC insisting on doing WADA testing in a fight. Pacquiao is enrolled in the VADA Clean Boxing Program which means they can test him anytime.

    Pacquiao has been tested by VADA in 5 fights. Pacquiao has NEVER rejected VADA, but Floyd has.

    :deal:

    Pacquiao's never been caught w/ needles and illegal IV fluids, but Floyd has.

    :deal:

    If you accuse Pacquiao of being juiced for this fight, then you must also include Keith Thurman, but we know he got that hood pass.

    :deal:

    What's more disturbing is the fact that you feel the need to defend him in every thread where someone speaks negatively. Take your own advice and get therapy.

    To be fair...

    We're talking about BOXING here. Boxing is a sub tab and category on most major websites that feature sports. It's a teenie tiny sport that occupies a small piece of real estate in the sports landscape. It's not like every other sport that is brimming w/ superstars. That's why there have been so few superstars in the game. Pacquiao, Mayweather, Tyson, Canelo, Lomachenko, Golovkin (probably), and Joshua will always be hot topics.

    I'm the only one making Inoue threads...

    Hating is a ***** like trait and that's much worse. Haters are the worst kind of people they're miserable jealous weak failed people. Why can't you just give the man his due and move on? You'll sleep much better at night if you do.:deal:

    Pac turned down random blood testing for years he moved up in weight kept his speed power and workrate but didn't test. It took him to get put in a coma and for him to get off those Ariza shakes for him to even consider it, when he did he looked like ****.:deal: Now all of sudden he's 40 and looks like he's 10 years younger with no testing in place. Your idol is dirty face it.

    You're the biggest hater and racist on the forum. No one who loves boxing hates Manny Pacquiao. You hate the man w/ a passion.

    Pacquiao never turned down random blood testing, but Floyd did reject VADA and the failed drug penalties.

    :deal:

    Pacquiao never had T/E ratios of a 120 year old man, but Floyd did. TWICE.

    :deal:

    Pacquiao never used needles and IV Fluids, but Floyd did.

    I’ve made him well aware that Pacquiao had a TUE for a WADA banned corticosteroid when he fought Floyd....It was just about the same stuff that Drummer Boy Molina was suspended for.
