Don't know if all this is true or not but it does make you think there is no reason for the testing that Mayweather goes on about not to be introduced. If there's nothing to hide, why not?
To be fair, you could say even if he is taking, why not? Olympic style drug testing doesn't catch anyone that isn't stupid.
I dunno the ins and outs of PAC VS PBF negotiations but tbh mate i remember that ''he's scared of needles'' bollocks him and his camp came out with and remember footage of him prior to Hatton fight being injected and he seemed pretty damn calm IMO as well as having Tattoo's. Tbh i will say here and now i believe he's used them in past it's just a feeling i have and tbh he's not only one in the sport to use them. The sport needs to tighten up on this but doubt they ever will.
I don't believe he ever said he was scared of needles. There are also a lot of people who are scared of needles but get tattoos. It's not the same thing.
I believe maybe Roach? said he was?...not to sure but i remember when it kicked off and people posting and finding pics around them times.
We'll probably never find out, can you imagine the damage it would do to the sport though if he was caught? Biggest name in the boxing world disgraced. The scared of needles excuse is laughable to be honest though.
Yeah i thought that the other day...if it came out it just hits the sport hard. I'm always up for being proven right ...but this wouldn't do our sport any good...although cheats need to be exposed obviously.
I don't think so. I think it's one of those things someone says and gets repeated. http://sport.stv.tv/boxing/146404-roach-mayweather-is-running-scared-of-pacquiao/ He still has to have blood tests for medicals.
I'm not neccessarily saying he's never said that but I've never seen it as reason they objected. He might have said he doesn't like needles, but who does? I've always seen it as them viewing it as a disruption to their training camp and/or boxers being egotistical and not bowing to demands from someone else.
I bet you a pound to a penny it comes out in later years, things like this always do. This might be playing Devil Advocate a bit but does anyone think the reason Manny throws money about like he does is to keep people quiet?? Thats probably me talking rubbish lol.
Nah you never know mate you could be right...who knows. I will always be suspicious..even later down the road.
