1) Imagine you are an entirely innocent hispanic or black guy who has always been on the right side of the law. One day you are walking down the road and they ask u to take some tests (i.e you get searched) because according to their racial profiling, a disproportionate number of crimes are committed by blacks and hispanics.
How would you feel?
Would you feel discriminated against??
Firstly i would like to state Olympic style drug testing is not required by the boxing boards. Only floyd requires it.
2) Imagine you are an entirely innocent guy called manny pacquiao who has always been on the right side of the boxing board..always taken the tests they require. One day you are just chilling by your pool then floyd calls you up asking you to take some special tests to prove that your haven't taken p.e.ds or other illegal substances even though you have always taken all tests required by the boxng board and have always come out clean. Floyd sr says that you are unnaturally strong and can take punches as he goes up in weight.
How would you feel?
Would you feel discriminated against??
These first example may not the best analogy but they r both forms of discrimination.
Btw don't get confused with racism and discrimination. racism is a subset of discrimination. I am using racism as an example of discrimination in the 1st example and having to prove (take extra tests) as an example of discrimination in the 2nd example.
you asking me?? I have been pulled over for no reason, and whites do look at me crazy.... This is the way of this racist land and system. My ancestors were slaves, so you should know how most blacks feel and are treated, as well as some hispanics.
Most blacks on here can tell you they have had some unfair run in with the law, pulled over etc. All for being black. I dont cry, I dont run and tell people its not fair. i accept reality.
MANNY SHOULD TOO. HIS EXCUSES LOOK SUSPICIOUS.
Now imagine you get pulled over by a cop, and you are sweating bullets when they ask to search you for drugs etc.
And then you proceed to give every excuse in the book.You say shit like, " you cant remove your hands from the steering wheel" or you have a present for your daughter in the car and no one can see it before she does.just crazy shit.... THIS IS WHY PEOPLE ARE ON MANNYS ASS!!! crazy excuses. He could have stated no you cant get extra testing in the beginning, and that would have been that. But his team agreed and later forsook the agreement.
IF MANNY WOULD HAVE LEFT ALL THE CRAZY SHIT OUT HE WOULD NOT EVEN BE QUESTIONED. If he would have stated I will not bow to floyds test (initially) then who would have suspected him? People rag him now because his excuses are BULLSHIT.

THIS IS WHY PEOPLE LOOK AT MANNY SUSPICIOUS.
Dont you remember the story of the black guy that was arrested because he live in a nice house and the police didnt believe that he lived there??? Now they are talking about putting the handcuffs from taht incident on display. The man showed id and everything. NOW THATS UNFAIR.
YOUR ANALOGIES ARE BAD, I see what you are trying to get at, but its too different.

I did have a look at the youtube video.
I didn't see anything suspicious except manny saying he didn't want to take the blood test within 14 days of the fight. It must be an old video since he has recently say he would do that if needed.
Everybody has their demons. If manny just doesn't want blood taken and is superstitious of it...why can't he be like this?
Same as people who have had their people enslaved before. Yeah that was terrible etc but you can't live your life with such a burden etc. Everybody's ancestors at one time or another had a really shitty life. That's life.
Also i'm surprised if u were the victim of discrimination before that would take the discrimination against pacman so lightly? you have a strange attitude that since u r black or hispanic you should be checked and that's ok with you.
I personally would be pretty annoyed if some1 checked me for no reason other than my race but then again i'm not black or hispanic.
Don't forget the jews...they were persecuted all those years back yet they r very hard working and wealthy in general nowadays.
If the fight doesn't happen, none of these will matter anymore. Guess who are they going to blame?
People pretty much believe what they're going to believe out of jealousy and hatred. There's just nothing we can do about it.
One thing sure will stay intact. The evidence linking Pac with steroids will never materialize.

This happens in real life all the time. Is it fair? No it isn't will it continue to happen yes. Life is not fair, one of the lessons you have to learn quickly as an adult. I suggest you get intimate with that concept. Better to do that than to keep antagonizing yourself about the pac/pbf fiasco.
Oh please, almost every race has been slaves at one point in history. Hell Filipinos were traded as slaves IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. Slaves to the Spanish, slaves to Americans. The difference is their struggle isn't anywhere near as involved with US history as African Americans.
Oh yea nice example, a black professor that was condecending and uncooperative with a police officer and caused a newly elected president to trip over his words agreeing with the professor only to find out that the cop was right in doing what he did.
the difference is the pinoys while enslaved still had their culture, their language etc.
The hebrews here in america african americans dont speak their language,a nd dont even know what people they originally come from. They will even use a noun to describe them. " BLACK"

were your ancestors slaves?? and when???
probably insulted and pissed off
which is good...i've seen what he's done in the ring to the guys that he did like...now its time to see that extra edge
might the first time we see him walk in the ring withOUT smiling
I would love to see pac fight angry and floyd as well. They both cant stand each other
Man, wake up. Of all people you should be against people profiling people.
Accusing people without evidence is outright evil. It doesn't even merit any debate.
what are you talking about? being against something doesnt stop it. Its called being a realist.
manny looks suspicious because of this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kFqyTqnbYA
and freddy roahcs lies.
Thats why. The world loves manny, just some people not easily fooled know its bullshit.
If manny had said no I will not take additional testing. without brining up crazy excuses I would have been like well he doesnt want to take it. I still would have been like well dont come with the 10,000,000 per pound madness either.
If paul williams says no I dont wanna take it, I WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE WELL HE DONT WANNA TAKE IT. But if paul williams would have come wit all the bullshit excuses, I would think he was fake to.
No one hates manny just because. How many floyd fans do you really think wakes up calling pinoys racist names. What racial epiteths are the pinoys even called?

Roy Jones Jr. at the very beginning sided with Pac saying,
"Hell naw. Why change the rules on me? Because I'm coming up in weight means I'm doing steroids? They're giving you a test for that anyway. It would be something that would aggravate me because then after I beat you, I was on something, don't play with me. Either you want to fight or you don't want to fight."
This is coming from a guy with ped history. Imagine you are Pac knowing you never use any of that thing they accuse you of? I'd be eternally pissed if I were Pac and let them beg for the fight. No man alive would I be obligated to provide excuses or any explanation.

True but its not a racial thing at all! Its because he's performing at a VERY high level right now. So to continue with your anology the blood testing is trial and in the ring, the verdict and sentencing
