Something Just Doesn't Sit Right With Floyd's Demand Of OST

it was his daddy, guys. WTF. how hard is that to understand. BOTH fighters made concessions, and they both at least budged a little. Floyd's final offer was reasonable, seeing as how Manny ultimately ended up accepting it. Sr. and floyd's camp destroyed negotiations before they began by insulting and baselessly accusing a good fighter of cheating. Sr. doesn't like Southpaws. Sr. probably doesn't like asians. Sr. doesn't like "midgets". Sr. doesn't like losing (Hoya, Hatton). He did absolutely everything in his power to make the fight impossible, and it worked. You don't start a f***ing wedding by smacking the bride!!

Maybe the thought of cleaning up the sport dawned on him during the negotiations with Pacquiao. Maybe Pacquiao would be the first boxer to fight Mayweather, whom Mayweather truly believed was on something, and because of which, actually threaten the 0 on his record? Maybe his previous 40 opponents, against whom he did not demand OST, didn't give him a reason to be suspicious?

If this fight ever comes off, I hope one party wipes out the other, so half the people on this board can **** off and shutup. The two fighter's legion of jealous boyfriends are ****ing annoying, so at least half would have to **** the **** off.

Floyd Snr thought Mannys win over Cotto was suspect. Floyd then wants Pac to take tests. He only then says he wants to clean up the sport. So really the 'cleaning up the sport' thing is more about Floyd suspecting Pac, because pac seemed superhuman against Cotto, and Floyd saw an oppertunity to piss Pac off by demanding tests. Unfortunatly it fukked up the negotiations and now theres no fight. Theyre both to blame.

Floyds daddy starting spewing shit about steroids. Manny's a southpaw, floyds daddy got scared. It's pretty easy to see that Floyd's camp (led by sr.) conspired to slander Manny's good name to make the fight as difficult to make as possible. Their suspicion that he actually might be using steroids is justifiable. What isn't justifiable is the disrespectful and demeaning way they went about it. It was simply a bitchass move. Floyd may have wanted the fight, as did Manny (they both made concessions). But Floyd's camp destroyed negotiations before they began, when they accused a fighter with a good image of cheating his way to greatness.

The most important argument Mayweather made for why there should be OST in the sport of boxing is to uphold the sport's integrity and set it apart from other sports who have had issues with rampant usage of illegal performing enhancement drugs. This ethical, heroic and progressive mind state, however, is not something that is cultivated overnight. To have such concern for the integrity and morality of the sport, Floyd would have had to have been growing frustrated with the lack of proper testing, the type of testing that could detected the undetectable. Floyd would have had to have been growing concerned with possibly countless fighters cheated out of a victory by possible PED users. Also, the other main point is that he wants a even playing field which is understandable. How is it fair to fight someone who might have an un-natural advantage over you? Here's what I'm having an issue understanding. Floyd has had 41 professional fights. A career that spans 14 years. Throughout these 14 years, there have been countless fighters who have tested for banned substances: Fighters like Fernando Vargas who tested positive for steroids after his fight with De La Hoya, Roy Jones Jr who tested positive for androstenedione after the Hall victory, and James Toney who tested positive for Nandrolone after his bout with John Ruiz. Those are high profile names so its not like these incidents went under the boxing radar. They made waves throughout the boxing community. So when these incidents were occurring, Why didn't the idea to become a crusader for justice and morality for the boxing community burn bright in the mind of Floyd Mayweather Jr. earlier in his career and not now when Manny Pacquiao appears as a threat? If the possibility of fighters taking PED's high in the boxing world, why was he not requesting OST in the past? But no, in his 14th year of his pro career, after his 40th fight, Mayweather proclaims his stance on the lack of proper testing in Boxing. What is interesting is that Mayweather didn't include this train of thought as part of his comeback. He never once mentioned of this crusade during his retirement nor did even even require this type of testing for his first fight from retirement, Juan Manuel Marquez. Funny thing about that Marquez fight. Marquez requests a fight with Mayweather. Mayweather obliges. Fight set. Only one problem: Mayweather fights at 147 lbs and Marquez has never fought past the 135 LBS Lightweight division. So an agreement is made to meet at 144LBS. A catchweight that Mayweather doesn't meet coming in at 146 lbs, but thats an issue for another day. Marquez, already a small lightweight, has to gain a good amount of weight to fight Mayweather. He obviously has to improve in speed and power. He has to be comfortable at this weight. So here you have a fighter that would have all the motive to enhance his performance by taking illegal substances, but Floyd Mayweather, the beacon of morality and justice in boxing, doesn't request OST for the fight? A fight with such importance for boxing, so much so, that it is billed "Number One / Numero Uno: The fight for pound for pound supremacy". I mean, it appears that the lack of OST was never an issue for Floyd in the past even though high profile names were caught using PEDS. And when Floyd had an opponent who had a motive to use PED's, Marquez who had to move up 2 divisions to fight Floyd, OST's or PEDs weren't even an issue. So after 14 years, 40 fights, why now? This is exactly what i've been saying and many other fans in the begining have been saying all along when Floyd first brought up the OST. Why now, why with Manny. The obvious reasons would be that they honestly think Manny is taking PED's and it is obvious as well that they're accusing Manny, there's no two ways about that. That being said, Manny does look guilty for not agreeing to it in the begining and it doesn't help his case either. Regardless, Floyd does look like he's just completely avoiding Manny, especially now.

its simple guy. Floyd was a fan of Pacquiao and his accomplishments even attending his fights. Pacquiao kept exceeding people's expectations and winning his way to ATG status and a possible opponent to Floyd's position for this generations best fighter. Soon as Pacquiao got closer to Floyd's weight class and became a threat, Floyd's position on Pacquiao began to change. Then Pacquiao became generally recognized as a more accomplished fighter than Floyd. Floyd being the egomaniac that he is began to discredit Pacquiao. The Floyd's daddy claimed Pac was on asteroids and the Mayweather camp saw that as an opportunity to put an asteriks on Pac's career and make it even harder to make a fight with him. They don't have to fight Pac to defeat Pac. its politics friends! This is it^ Also For Floyd to refuse to fight Pacman based on suspicion of PEDs, equates to Floyd believing he could lose the fight if Pacquiao is on what is suspected of him. Thats a fact. So for everyone that has suspicion there is always a small percentage of self doubt. What if they are wrong. Floyd must have these concerns, and this is exactly why he wants to beat Pacquiao outside the ring before inside the ring if he possibly can.

There isn't anything to debate, he thinks Pac is on something so he wanted him tested. He couldn't contradict himself by not having Mosley or any of his future bouts not having test. But the bottom line is, he's suspect about Pac.

I defend Floyd more than most, but you're right, it's the fact that he's suspicious of Pacquaio more than the concern of cleaning up the sport. He had no choice but to ask Mosley to take the blood tests, so it wouldn't look like he was singling out Manny. For the record i don't think he's afraid of fighting Pacquaio, it's just he's suspicious he may be taking something and wants to make absolutely sure Manny's not on anything if he should fight him. Floyd's mistake was going about it all wrong in the media, appearing to strong arm and slander Pacman, as opposed to discretely negotiating an arrangement for the drug testing. I think you'll find the answer you're looking for in this post. He was full of crap about "cleaning up the sport". It was merely an idea he hid behind when his true intentions were to just test Pac. And as Levcon mentioned, he had no choice but to do the same testing on Mosley since he demanded it for the sake of "cleaning up the sport." It should be well known by now that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is a master in the ring and at spewing out crap non stop all day long.

They said its half of tea spoon and its alot more. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT KID! Now I am gonna call your fatherand he will disconect your internet kid! Who said it's teaspoons, These guys are about drain 40-60 millilitters from both of these guys, they can replenish that within a couple of hours. These two athletes are in perfect shape, people who are good shape replenish blood quicker. Your argument that either one will be drain is idiotic.

Any comments for Pac fans? we're at the same side of the fence...i'll let go of their inequities if any:fing26:

To put it concisely, Floyd suspects pacquiao of roiding so he wants OST.

theres been alot of big fights since the mosley/mayweather fight. and if mayweather jr wanted to cleanup the sports of boxing like he said is what he is doing, then how come he hasnt been crusading OSDT during those fights and havent heard anything about his crusade to clean it up for this next big upcoming fights (alexander/kotelnik, loud/johnson) tomorow nite? if mayweather jr want to be the crusader for OSDT to clean up boxing, then why is he on the down low and not doing anything? why is he on vacation and not crusading for OSDT for all these big fights that just happened and all these upcoming fights?

i have no problem with floyd's blood testing demand nor what he thinks about pac. he can make any demands he wants, that's his right. at the same breath, i also have no problem that pac rejected floyd's demand because that's his right as well. the problem here really is that the flomos can not accept the fact that their god's demand was rejected. Any comments for Pac fans?

Ive come to the conclussion that everyone at the elite level is peding or juicing. There should be just one commission the United States Athletic Commission of boxing they should demand that all fighters be tested randomly by blood and urine at least once a week during their training camps leading up to the fights and one week after the fight People say there is no money to enforce such testing but the boxing industry is a muti million $ industry there is a way but greed kills it all

How bad ass would it have been for Pac to say"Ok Floyd Ill take you stupid tests and stomp a mudhole in your ass". Goes both ways people.
