atsch You're clueless. Nobody else had an issue fighting Manny, and Floyd wasn't interested in any of his opponents being tested, until his big mouth daddy made his slurs without a shred of evidence. Manny didn't have to agree to sh*t. He could have told Floyd to get f*cked. Yet he didn't. He agreed to be randomly tested, but wanted a cut off due to what had happened against Morales in 2005. However, he did agree to give urine samples up until the day of the fight, plus an immediate after fight blood test. And that should have been more than sufficient for Floyd. But it wasn't. Do you really think Manny wanted to cheat for about 12 days out of a 9 week camp? In the end, Manny caved and agreed to all of Floyd's testing demands. Then what happened? Did Floyd try to make the fight? No. He wanted all of the PPV revenue from the biggest grossing fight in the history of boxing, proving to everyone that he had no intentions of making the fight, and it wasn't the testing that was preventing the fight from taking place. Then what happened? The Mayweather's went to court, admitted they had zero evidence, then apologised and had to pay compensation. Then what happened last year? Floyd was supposedly so dehydrated, he broke WADA's rules and had an IV of 750ml, which should have been classed as a medical emergency, that should have resulted in admittance to a hospital. atsch Your hero wanted nothing to do with Manny until after Marquez had iced him. :hi:
I'd pick Mayweather to beat a prime Delahoya as well. I dont consider Oscar to be on the same level as the fab 4. Hearns is bigger and has more dimensions to his game than Delahoya who was basically a jab and hook style fighter. Vs Delahoya, Mayweather main focus would be to be alert of Delahoya's left hand. He cant do that vs Hearns. Hearns had a 78" reach where Delahoya's was 72". Hearns jab was sharper and more powerful, and his right hand could possibly be the best right hand may be the best in boxing history. How do you defend both from the jab and right hand of Hearns if you're Floyd Mayweather? Anyone with an ounce of boxing knowledge just has to watch Mayweather's fight with Delahoya to come to the conclusion he's easy pickings for Tommy Hearns. [YT]c_0GSE-A6Uk[/YT]
A lot of people,fans, fighters, and insiders alike suspected Manny was on PEDS. The way he reacted to random drug testing only increased the suspicion. Truth is Bob Arum was never going to let Pac fight Floyd anyway at the time. He didn't want to destroy his meal ticket till he was squeezed of all his juice. Seriously dude, who signs to fight Joshua Clottey when you have a Mayweather fight on the table? That is called Ducking! Pacquiao had never had what it takes to beat Floyd that's always been obvious to me and to those who know boxing. Floyd wanted drug testing to make the fight happen, team Pac used the drug test to avoid the fight. Thev nd result proved that when it comes to drug testing Manny is the flip flopper not Floyd.
Why are you lying? Nobody suspected Manny of anything until Floyd Snr opened his big mouth. Who signs to fight Joshua Clottey? I like how you've spun things. How about saying it was Floyd who let Manny walk away by not agreeing to his cut off request? Again, the cut off shouldn't have been an issue with random urine samples up to the day of the fight, and an immediate after fight blood test. Nobody else had an issue fighting Manny. Again, the cut off request was reasonable considering there wasn't a shred of evidence of any wrongdoing. I don't even know why we're discussing the testing anyway. It was never about the testing. After Manny had said in the media that he'd comply with the tests to get the fight, Floyd then moved the goalposts and wanted all of the PPV revenue from the biggest grossing fight in the history of boxing. And that proved to everyone that it was never the testing that was preventing the fight from taking place. Again, your boy Floyd was scared of Manny taking his zero. If Marquez hadn't have iced Manny, we'd never have seen the fight. Then after years of implying that Manny was dirty, we had the IV controversy last year. You're just a rider who's living in a fantasy. Floyd was scared of facing Manny, but you think he'd have fought Tommy Hearns if he'd have been around in his era. Ha! :rofl :rofl :rofl :nut
He was way up on the scorecards vs Leonard at welterweight. Tommy got stopped by a feroucious punching Leonard in the 14th round. Had fights back then been 12 rounds like they are now, Hearns would have beaten Leonard rather handily on the scorecards as he did 8 years later when they rematched. Leonard is stereotyped to be a boxer, but he was actually a great finisher when he smelled blood, that's not Mayweather. So lets see, he beat Benitez, Duran, Leonard in their rematch. His loss to Hagler is considered the best 3 rounds in boxing history against arguably the best middleweight of all-time, and like I told you, Hagler took it to Hearns rough and tumble which is the type of fighter that caused Hearns trouble. Hearns had weaknesses, but Mayweather's style isn't the type to exploit that. As an aside, you know that left jab that Mayweather likes to throw to the body? He does that vs Hearns and its lights out for Mayweather as Hearns right hand missile is dropped straight as an arrow right down the middle! Tommy had the quickness as well, he was quicker than the other 3 in the fab four. Leonard had the speed, but Hearns was quicker on the trigger. DOWN GOES MAYWEATHER! :yep
