Now I know everyone loves contradictions here and everyone loves to talk steroids. Lets put them together. Post any pre-Pacquiao and post-Pacquiao accusation contradictions you've noticed. For example:
Pre-Accusation: "Manny Pacquiao's power is overrated. He couldn't KO a zombie weight drained DLH, Hatton went in chin forward and was a KO waiting to happen, Cotto's chin was ruined by plaster."
Post-Accusation: "There's no way someone moving up that much in weight can keep their power without steroids."
Pre-Accusation: "Manny Pacquiao's speed is overrated. Of course he looked fast against the slow David Diaz, zombie DLH, Hatton, and Miguel Cotto."
Post-Accusation: "There's no way someone moving up that much in weight can keep their speed without steroids."
Pre-Accusation: "Manny Pacquiao is a fraud. He's been weighing in the 140's for his featherweight, super featherweight, and lightweight fights for years."
Post-Accusation: "There's no way someone can gain that much weight in such little time without steroids."
Feel free to add any more you've noticed or that you come across.
Guess I'll post another one. This one's my favorite.
Pre-Accusation: Pacquiao fans "Manny Pacquiao started fighting when he was 16 at 106 lbs and moved up to 147."
Mayweather fans "Oh yeah, Floyd won the golden gloves tournament when he was 16 at 106 lbs and moved up and beat the #1 ranked at 154 in DLH."
Post-Accusation: "tell me how a former 106 lb-er in Manny Pacquiao can move up all that weight and beat a top welterweight like Miguel Cotto without steroids? Something's not right."
Before, people were always so quick and eager to try to match accomplishments and one-up Pacquiao and now people tend to avoid mentioning Floyd's equally impressive weight jumping abilities.
