    if MANNY is using PED's So are other fighters and WHY ARE THEY NOT #1 ?

    Is Manny taking some extraterrestrial PED's or can fight fans just come to terms that Manny is the real deal?

    Pac is just a great fighter....all the PEDs in the world doesnt help the exceution he has displayed.

    on another note i still think his reponses and actions towards the type of testing being asked for is questionable...that is all.

    Bc PED'S can't give you actual skills. Taker Roger Clemens who pitched great but couldn't hit a lick and knock home runs out the park. PED'S in boxing are good for stamina and power and thats it. When you have great stamina helps with your recovery and keeps you fresh. Manny has skills. Give Margarito PED'S and you still have the same Margarito with more stamina getting hit like a punching bag.

    But he always had good stamina right? I have seen him take breathers in some rounds of his recent fights as well.

    Of course he's on PEDs. How else could he survive all those fixed fights Arum is putting him in?

    I wouldn't surprise me to find out all the top guys/most professional boxers are on something. When you think about the amount of money there is to be made. I think a lot of people would try to do everything they can to give them even the slightest advantage.

    I guess im pretty naive but I dont think boxers are on peds maybe a few. I would be schocked if a guy like martinez or hopkins turned out to be on peds. I would really dislike them and it would take away all my respect for the guy.

    Manny very well could be on PED'S and so could Mayweather. We need to define PED'S as well. They are not on anabolic steroids so what could they be on. Anyone who has boxed before as an Amateur and the guys who still train hard to stay in top shape know that your body is sore as hell after 8 to 12 rounds of sparring. These guys spar 10 rounds one day and then go out the next day and spar 12 and sometimes more. The body can only do so much on its on when it comes to recovery. Manny has skills which PEDS cannot give him. If he is taking something he is doing it for stamina and recovery after heavy training.

    Yep, Pacquiao has had great stamina for a long time...especially since he got his head straight and focused completely on his training.

    This becomes routine though. And with the right nutrition, your body can recover quickly without the use of illegal substances.

    Probably something like EPO.

    But it's not like sparring for 12+ is unnatural or insurmountable with natural nutrition and recovery, after all fights did go longer than that not too long ago.
