    So Floyd knew that PAc would use silly third world supersitions to back out out of a drug test?


    Who knew Mayweather was such an evil genius.


    goddamn you *******s are dumb.

    This will make people think that your a PBF nutthugger. Take the test, prove yourself, win the fight, become an ATG. Period. Case closed:rasta

    My point is that if someone dies, the police will start enforcing the law very strictly. Maybe setting up speed traps and road blocks. But if no one dies, everything is status quo. If you apply that to boxing, the tests that they have in place have caught people in the past and no one has died. In other words, to my knowledge, there have been no major issues regarding this issue as far as the commission is concerned. So what's the problem ? Also, it's pretty laughable that anyone would think that PEDS would cause a death in the ring.

    Again I say, don't discriminate against one person with no history of any problems. If there is a problem with "PEDS everywhere" in sports, get the rules in boxing changed for everyone and implement them for everyone. Simple fix. But I suspect that the true problem here lies elsewhere !

    Truthfuly I do think Mayweather is afraide of losing to Pacquiao. I also think that he was also afraide of losing to Marquez, Hattton, De La Hoya and the rest of his 36 opoents. However he fought and beat them. Outside of boxing Mayweather dose not strike me as a very confidence person.

    Anyone who remembers back to the first Morales fight, would know that Pacquiao wouldn't have been kern on testing so close to the fight. Anyone who can speak Pacquiao's native language, could have found clips of him saying this.

    You think it's impossible that in such a huge fight, they would have done their research and found this out? Mate, I knew about Pacquiao's belief that the blood test drained him and I'm just a fan.

    The rules that apply to the highway equal fatalities. Again, what I am trying to say is that in boxing the rules PEDs test are made to level the playing field. If the test are outdated than the whole purpose is defeated. You seem to think that everything is the wild west. If you dont get caught, you not cheating. Do you really think if PBF is clean and suspects that Pac maybe a cheater that hes out of line to ask for stricter testing. This is the biggest fight of AT. Remember this, there was a time not too long ago when women & blacks where not even considered people. But someone stood up and decided that the rules where outdated & changed the rules.

    I never sensed this kind of fear from Mayweather before. His comments on Hatton, De La Hoya etc. were confident. Then when he says Pacquiao is an easy fight then insists on extra testing...thats not mind games, thats fear. The same fear which made him recognize the possibility of defeat.

    Floyd is reminding me of Ali pre-Holmes.

    Well see, I hope.

    I don't believe Mayweather's chin is that good. I do believe hell get hit and when he does, I see him lasting around 10 rounds.

    It's funny how little credibility Larry Merchant has in commenting on this fight and the two fighters involved. He is known to love Pacquiao and despise Mayweather. It's common knowledge. He has ZERO credibility on this matter.

    Reread what I SAID. How can u debate something and you dont even read my points. When Did I say die in the ring?
     
  14. Na why is Floyd trying to expose him as a steroid freak anyway, it would endanger his chances of beating him right? :lol::lol:

    And third world superstition or not, this is not how you do business. The moment pac says yes he just opened up his ass crack for the mayweathers as far as business ethics are concerned.
