Exclusive Interview with Alex Ariza

Apparently, the guy has troubles taking vitamins. Meanwhile, Ariza says he's making some great legal supplements for Manny. I'm not saying Manny is juicing, but the team around him seems to take care of him. All it takes it Ariza to be doing this. For all Pac knows he's clean. But with his team's shiftiness and misinformation, maybe it's possible. I'm not saying I think Manny is on steroids, nor am I saying that if he were that Pac wouldn't know. Most athletes use that lame excuse. But in this case, with the way his team went from 2-3 days to 30 days. And how his team won't budge and how Manny was afraid of "needles." Meanwhile, Manny seemed keen on going "mano o mano and fighting in the ring." His team, was just a little more hesistant.

Now, regarding the superfight not happening... I'm blaming both fighters. In fact, most of the blame should go to Mayweather for his ridiculous demands. Manny should get some blame, too. I mean... a drop of blood for 40+ million dollars. To not fight for that seems a little crazy. Maybe giving in will some weak to his Pinoy fans, who knows. Don't something think it's possible Manny is on something while not knowing? Basically this thread is asking you guys.

The bottom line, it just sucks if this fight isn't going to happen. Looks that way, and over seemingly such petty and trivial stuff (Not the accusation, but over a drop of blood taken, how many times, when, random, etc). Over just a little bit of blood... damn :-(

 

Pacquiao should just swallow his pride and agree to the drug testing to prove he has nothing to hide, but with that said, the Mayweather camp shouldn't be making this ridiculous request in the first place. Pacquiao has never tested positive, and in my opinion, you shouldn't administer tests that are never done in boxing based purely on speculation. Pacquiao having to take these tests is in a way, penalizing him for all the great things he has done over the last few years, and that is not fair. But Pac should go ahead and take the tests just to shut everyone up...then go kick Floyd's ass.

 

good read, manny is a legend

 

hmm says . . .

If stubborn Pac doesn't know much about vitamins/steroids then I believe he doesn't fully understand much about blood testing (as far as PEDs are concerned). I believe he trusts his team so he can easily deny the accusations without fully understanding the ramifications of denying tests.

Pac said, he was hesitant and waved off Mayweather Sr's first steroid accusations in the past but now feels insulted that I get the vibe he doesn't want to do things suggested by the Mayweathers or seemingly imposed by GBP (whom he feels backstabbed). Hence, wanting to go through NSAC and having a defamation lawsuit. This extends to Arum and Roach as well...

I understand that changing a system/going beyond standard procedures by the request of the opponent is a little unethical, but the whole situation has gone facked up that he now has to do so to clear his name and eliminate the doubters...

All this ducking accusations from both sides (fanbases) is the same'ol BS premadonna fight hype drama talk. Both have been on record that they are willing to throw down. It's a matter of ppl sucking up their pride getting shiet done and making this fight a go.

I see where both sides are coming from and both are at fault. One more so than the other... Shouldn't even made any accusations in the first place... shiet steamrolled. Now blood testing is needed...

I swear a Mayweather is an ESBer or someone from their team is... When Sr. made his accusation back then, someone on ESB mentioned (started a thread) about Olympic style drug testing (I posted on it so I remember) and then a couple of weeks or so later, Olympic style drug testing is what Mayweathers want... hits every boxing article.... I guess us fans play a big part on the drama...

 

More hype. Quit side talking and take the damn tests.

 

Ariza will say anything to get the DEA off his back

 

That's how I see it...

 

The main reason why Pac is opposed to Mayweathers' ridiculous demand on RANDOM testing is because GBP has connections with USADA.

This will be the scenario of the so called RANDOM testing:

They will draw blood from PAC 1 day before the fight at 3 AM and call it RANDOM while they will draw blood from MONEY 5 days before the fight at regular time and also call it RANDOM.

Since it is a RANDOM testing, then the schedule to get blood from both fighters will be different and GBP will make sure that they will have the advantageous schedule thereby DRAINING PAC of energy.
