Classic's take on drug testing situation

Yes, but maybe Manny wants to more then we think. Yet his team feels the need to protect him. That's what happens during negotiations. I think it's a little unreasonable to ask Pac to have blood taken a day before the fight. This limitation or superstition, whether true or not should be respected by Floyd's team. That seems to be fair.

Floyd gave up on the Olympic team testing for it. Now Nevada probably is going to. Seems Arum is backpedaling on the "We will test for blood randomly if it's done by another agency." Funny enough, Nevada doesn't do this usually. So he seems to be trying to go on this angle.

We shall see how the rest pans out.

 

Well we don't, but naturally it's normal for his team to try getting the upper hand in negotiations. Arum & Roach aren't dumb. However, Pac is willing to do all tests. Just not to close to the fight. He has said this. I think that should be respected.

I'm with you man. This is going to do huge numbers! I'm so happy to read that May is letting up some room for compromise. Hopefully we see the same out of Pac's team.

 

Is this the latest

I know.

 

Have'nt you heard the Rugged Man interview with Floyd Jr?

 

DelaHoya made it pretty clear by saying if Pac isn't guilty, he has nothing to worry about.

 

Floyd may be in a whole heap of trouble now. He needs this fight badly.

 

I think I'm with you here. Mayweather has hurt himself by his tendency to make demands before fights, though. But in the end I think Pac should look to dispel all doubts. Too bad it doesn't looks like he will.

 

Floyd is the son of Leonard.

I am still cut that Leonard has the "win" (could have gone either way) over Hagler, I think that Hagler should have not of given in to all of Leonard's demands esp' being held over 12 rounds instead of 15 rounds, maybe Hagler would have got the win maybe the result would have been the same, who knows.

Now we have Floyd making all these demands on Pacman. If Floyd does not want to fight Pacman should fight SSM\Berto\Bradley etc... and let Floyd please himself. What did he come out of "retirement" to fight JMM?

**** all these fighters picking who and when to fight (or not) some one, for me if one fighter duck's another he has lost that match up and the other fighter gains some points for being ducked eg' Lewis VS Bowe. Lewis gets some points (not a win) and Bowe loses some points (not a loss). Most of the time it is very hard to see who is the ducker and who did the ducking, but in the case of Lewis and Bowe, they agreed to fight and one backed out.

Why should fighters like SSM lose when they are the ones willing to take the hard fights, Forest\ Winky when most of the other fighters will not and fighters like Floyd gain from their ducking (above LW)?

 

Floyd looks to be ducking Paq. This whole thing is a ruse. There is no time between the last scheduled test Paq agreed to and the fight post test for him to run a cycle and get clean. Total bull****.

 

Because Floyd father and son tagteam ran their mouths off accusing PacMan of using PEDs now PacMan is obliged to prove he is clean?

When wasn't he clean to begin with?

Because he has a chiseled physique, which he had ever since he started boxing, he's doing HGH?

Because Floyd Sr laid the groundwork for average boxing people to have "doubts", PacMan has to kowtow to whatever tests Jr comes up with?

Because all the things PacMan has done trumps Floyd Jr's career, and because it does, there's no way it has been done on the level, unless PacMan proves otherwise?

See the rationale behind all these?

 

Man, I am tearing it up hardcore in the General Forum right now guys, you should take a look.
