    Arum appeared to the public way more then GBP have throughout the proccess.

    Arum also came out first and said that Mayweather was at fault because they offer'd him 24 days and he turned it down without a counter offer. Then the guy from the meditation had to come out and say that Arum's statements weren't accurate or something like that and that he broke the gag order. Mayweather then came out and stated that he had a 14 day offer already on the table.

    Pac even came out with a couple of statements way before Mayweather ever spoke talking about he is suing and that he wants to punch Mayweather in his pretty little mouth. Which I thought was great.

    You have to be good enough to survive to the late rnds. When fighting top fighters it takes more then endurance. At this level it is your boxing ability that will win you the championship. PBF is the better boxer of the two and would still outbox PAC. To me it made little difference in their fight. The pac that fought Hatton and Cotto is the same Pac he'd be facing. If people think PBF was going to box circle around him prior to the negotiation then there is nothing to show why they would change their mind now.

    Now having said all this it is still a banned substance. If caught using this you should get the banned. Also the test that the WADA(world anti dopping agency) list as the only reliable source for EPO is urine.

    A boxing fan could also pose the similar question, "If Pac is such easy work, why wouldn't you make the fight happen with the testing already implemented by the NSAC?"

    The door swings both ways here, guys. How many big money fights are there like this one in boxing...especially, in the situation where Floyd is the bigger man in the ring? Any other fight of this magnitude, Floyd would have to move up in weight and fight someone at 160lbs and fight Kelly Pavlik.

    If Pac is taking PEDs, Floyd should be kissing that drug pushers ass!!

    The simple answer is that pac is not easy work and something is definitely up Floyd V Pavlik at 160 is no where near the magnitude to floyd v pac.

    Floyd v mosley would do more buys than floyd v pavlik

    Not for the casual fan...I'm saying that the Mosley/Floyd is a fight that is a "normal" welterweight fight and isn't going to capture the imagination of the casual fan...not like a special event would, like Floyd moving up to 160lbs and fighting the champ.

    Floyd should be jumping at the chance to fight a smaller man for that kind of money...Paulie Malignaggi would; and he seems to be convinced that Pac is on roids. Does he care? No!!

    Neither should Floyd.

    probably because they are going to do urine tests as well so that they can cover the entire spectrum of PEDs.

    I dont care who is to blame, I just want the fight to happen

    Mayweather is wili to take it up the ass from Ellerbe too so why shouldnt Pac? If Pac feels it will psychologically affect him in the fight as he wont feel like a man anymore, surely it would have the same effect on Floyd right, right?

    What stupid logic. Just because Floyd is unaffected by blood tests doesnt mean Manny is.

    Bottomline, Floyd, and only Floyd, not the commision who governs this stuff, is trying to draw blood BEFORE the fight. Thats all that need to be said...because he's not capable of doing it in the fight.

    Moore stated that he wouldn't allow ANY of his fighter to have blood drawn from the 48 hrs before a fight. Not just Pacman but ANYONE who fights under him.

    So its not about Pac being psychologically affected according to Moore but it would physically effect him. So if he believes that it would effect all his fighters. Wouldn't it effect the opponents who take the test as well??

    I'm not saying Michael Moorer's lying. But did you guys really think if he was Teddy Atlas' source he was going to just come out and say it? Seems to me it was like he was reading that answer off of a card and got very defensive. But it's also tough to tell how he said it because I can't hear how he said it.

    I keep hearing on Pacquiao's defense that he just has that work ethic in the gym........

    .......Mark McGwire just a couple days ago came clean and admitted to using steroids......and even then he and his former manager kept on driving the point that it was'nt just about taking the steroids, that it was the "work ethic" by McGwire.....that he was the first to arrive and the last to leave.......


    .......John Kruk, former ballplayer and now ESPN baseball analyst called McGwire's and LaRussa's claim that he was just a hard worker, "Bogus".....

    Kruk went on to say, "what does he think allowed him to be the first to arrive and the last to leave?
    What allowed him to be the hardest worker on the club?"

    "Thats what steroids does for you. It allows your body to be able to take, recover, and keep on going from such intense workout regimens.".....Kruk went on to say....


    People that are defending Pacquiao by saying that he's just a hard worker dont have a clue........thats what PED's allow you to accomplish people.....they help you in being able to keep on going and working out when the other guys thats not on them cant put his body through the same abuse!!!!!

    HELLO!!!!

    Good work but you missed something. Prior to your number 1 point, Roach said on video that they had agreed to the olympic-style drug testing, and Koncz released a statement saying that the request was laughable and that Manny had no problem with it. Then, 9 days later, Manny suddenly had a problem with it.
