Mayweather: "I Respect Mosley Because He Stood Up Like A Man And Agreed To Be Tested"

You act like he's never lost blood before in a fight. He's been cut before and had blood drawn from his body and gets tattoos...it's a weak ass excuse.

 

floyd should just do his own thing and stop using pac to promote his fight.

 

Where is the evidence?

What does this have to do with anything?

Because it was mandated. He had to. Those were the rules laid down by the commission. For him to compete and to occupy his job, he has to accept those rules. He does not have to accept the rules as laid down by Floyd Mayweather Jr.

And again, in response to these tests that he took 14 days before a fight. Which ones?

 

This I agree with.

 

Pac is effected by the amount of blood taken by a medical blood test.

Is there not a difference in the amount of blood taken?

 

Just answer the question *******!!

 

I'm pretty sure that he didn't willingly allow the blood to be pummelled from his face during a fight. I'm pretty sure the other guy cut him against Pac's will. And in those cases he dealt with it and fought on. Much like if you jabbed a syringe into his arm and drew his blood against his will he would deal with it. But if he can avoid it, he prefers to.

 

You're clearly not a lawyer, but given enough observation that points to oddities in his fighting career, it would leave "evidence" (although admittedly circumstantial) that points to steroid use.

Just watch Vivek Wallace's video on the matter...there's plenty of "evidence" to support the steroid claim.

But like I said...there's no smoking gun...meaning there's no SOLID proof that's he not on PED's...and we'll never get that without thorough testing now can we

Given that every athlete is clean, they would've gladly taken the tests with zero problem or fuss regardless if it was unprecedented or not. Mosley's never been asked to take random blood testing either and now here he is taking the tests with zero fuss. Clottey has gone on record and said he would've taken the tests. Cotto has said and also expressed shock about how or why Pacquiao would refuse such a trivial thing.

That's what a contract is for. You negotiate these things. It was there from the start, then has an issue with it. Has it compromised abajillion times and then tells Mayweather he's a liar and will go to hell...

Catchweights are also not mandated that his opponents have agreed to. You negotiate these things. And they played by the rules of Manny Pacquiao.

This logic is completely flawed and a convenient "principle-of-the-thing" approach.

Hatton, Morales, and just about any other ****ing fight he's been in. That's part of the commissions rules. They draw blood to see if you have any sort of STD's or crazy ass blood diseases. Every boxer undergoes these procedures.

 

Good on Mosely. I wish Manny Druguiao could say this. :yep

 

I'm not a lawyer, no. But I still don't think that precludes my understanding of whether or not there is evidence of Pac's cheating. I know that there is no evidence, because there is no evidence.

I saw what Vivek Wallace said. Something along the lines of Alex Ariza said he gives Manny his food and Manny has no idea what's in it. Therefore Manny is guilty because why else say that. Brilliant. Vivek Wallace isn't a lawyer either. Probably because he doesn't know what the **** he is talking about.

I understand this but I don't think just because other boxers would be happy to take the tests and Pacquiao doesn't want to means he is on PEDs.

Yes, Pacquiao's camp demanded the catchweights and his opponents agreed to them. Then the fights happened. In this case Mayweather's camp demanded the random blood testing, Pacquiao did not agree to them, the fight didn't happen.

In neither case did Pacquiao's opponents, or him, NEED to agree to these things. Cotto agreed to the catchweight because he was desperate for the fight, even at that cost. Pacquiao didn't agree to the testing because he was not desperate for the fight at that cost (of mental compromise).

If Cotto had said no I don't want to fight at a catchweight and Pac said well **** off then, no fight. I'm pretty sure people wouldn't be saying well obviously Cotto is scared. I think they would be saying why can't Pac just fight at the weight welterweight fights have been fought at for the past billion years?

I am not convinced this is true. I don't think that Pacquiao has ever had blood drawn less than 14 days before a fight, save for Morales, when he had to retake because his samples were lost.

And even if it is true, he took those tests so close to the fight it was because it was mandated, as I said. If he were to do it this time it wouldn't be because it was mandated, but rather because Floyd Mayweather Jr. said he wanted him to do.

 

You have a source or a link to this. Can you post a link here please.

Though nobody here can really contest that the drug issue was on the original paper contract, it may not have been there originally when the fight was verbally agreed upon. Surely on TV, all Floyd said was "all Pacquiao has to do is call me out," which of course as we all know, Pac did. Never did Floyd say it out in public that if Pac wanted to face him, he would have to do a random blood testing, which everybody here again knows Pac has agreed to some extent.

 

This is a good fight for Mayweather, which I think he will win decisively. A step in the right direction after running away from all these challenges.

 

Mayweather shows "respect" for Mosley or anyone else for that matter when it's convenient for him to.

In fact, all of his opinions and stances on anything at a given moment are based upon his convenience.

 

This is ****in' pointless...All I read was blah blah blah I love my new Wapakman goggles:verysad

And there's far more than just that to his video...clearly you picked his weakest point that was more speculation than evidence.

You want to believe those weak ass excuses by all means...carry on my wayward son.
