    I agree. I mean, it's not like Manny is old either, I mean he's ONLY 36 years old and not that for off from being 31-33 years old when he was faster and threw way more punches. Must be those damn roids that he's not using anymore...

    :patsch

    It's amazing how much this man has changed in the 10-15 years he's been fighting--107 lb. flyweight w/2 tko's then onto to muscular indestructible mean machine. I don't buy it. He was a rag doll on the mat against Marquez.
    Looks like he got the best on the market again most recently

    I'm of the view that all elite guys are using EPO.

    This. :deal

    Everybody focusing on steroids or HGH aren't thinking about it right. It's all about EPO. Increase stamina, while keeping your speed and flexibility. That's why all those professional bicyclists use it. If there was one performance enhancer I could choose as a boxer, I'd choose EPO every time. I never thought Pac was on "roids," I thought if he was using anything it was EPO.

    I wouldn't doubt if Mayweather was/is on something either, nobody is above suspicion. Given the current state of professional sports, it's hard not to question all the top athletes being on some kind of "designer drug." As shown by Lance Armstrong, when used properly EPO is very hard to detect. I know some techniques have improved, but it's still hard if the person administering the drug knows how quickly your levels will drop back down to normal. They can minimize your "risk window" of being caught from a test.

    So what this scientist is saying is, Pacman has a lot of skeleton in his closet. When he's actually in the closet that is.

    Most people are usually not inside their closet most of the time though, but then again he might have caught something when he fought Oscar.

    That's proof that he hasn't used PEDs?

    Yes, absolutely!!!!

    Wrist size correlates with bone structure or your "frame" size. Mayweather has a normal frame for his height. Pacquiao on the other hand.... his wrist size is 8 in. Bigger than any welterweight and on par with heavyweights. Which means, his "frame" is actually much larger than we think. His skeleton his FREAKISHLY large. Freakishly isn't even a big enough word. It's freaking crazy.

    The bigger the skeleton, the more weight (muscle, etc) you can put on it without losing speed or power. This explains why Pacquiao was able to go up, and up, and up in weight classes while still having his blazing speed and power. It's because of his crazy, unusual skeleton size. It wasn't because of steroids. It's because he's seriously a freak of nature.

    If you were to get a full-body X-ray of Pacquiao and Mayweather and look at their skeletons...Pacquiao would be the bigger man. He's always been the bigger man against his opponents (except Margarito, as the study showed). Pacquiao also says Margarito was also the hardest opponent of his life.

    This is another reason why he has crazy stamina. Red blood cells are created in the bone marrow which is responsible for carrying oxygen through-out the body. The oxygenation itself to the cells in the muscles and tissues is what gives him his stamina.

    Pacquiao, due to his crazy large skeleton, has more bone marrow, which produces more red blood cells, gives more oxygen more frequently to his muscles, tissues, etc which in turn gives him crazy high stamina.

    This is why I want him to stay around 144-145 for this fight. His stamina will be superb. If he goes too high in weight, his stamina will start to suffer since he'll have less of a surplus of red blood cells due to having more muscles that need to be oxygenated.

    Of course, he used to use PEDs, and Mayweather still does. Almost every top dog in the sport does. I wish he'd get back on them and knock Mayweather out.
