I honestly think that if my boxing idol is caught with plaster in his wraps, I would not support him ever again. I would feel embarrassed. Definitely can't root for a cheater. It's a matter of dignity and values. I mean, this is not like using a corked bat in a baseball game; you can actually end a boxer career or even kill someone on the ring if you're using plaster. Would you continue to support Pacman or Mayweather if they are caught cheating?
If i like the guy yeah...some say Tyson biting Holyfield was cheating, I seen it as fair play based on him using his head. I can understand how Margarito fans like him still, I just can't see how they support a guy that has no skills or speed at all.
Understand your point, but what he did was sooo low.

As a Floyd fan, at least he's willing to take the most stringent test to find out.
Pacquiao fans would rather not hear about it if Manny is caught. They'd go nuts.
wouldn't the most stringent tests be year round instead of time periods he selects? kinda weird how cutting was cut off 18 days before the fight while lidocaine is banned 7 days before a fight(the most likely time you would use).
here's a quote from tygart "We will look at the fighters' individual training schedules, and the date of the competition, and execute what we would call an intelligence-based testing plan on them" fighters don't train the last week before a fight that's why they weren't tested. but what they can do is inject xylocaine and with no tests to catch them. perfect.
so he wants pac to be tested right before the fight but he knows he can't be tested himself or he will get caught. he's in a real pickle and that's why he won't fight pac.

the question is
why does people continue to support floyd while there are evidence of him
1. hitting a woman in front of his children
2. likes to go on vacation instead of giving his fans the fight they wanted, or maybe his fans wanted him to duck pac?
3. did a racist video rant about whooping pacs arse instead of actually doin it in the ring
4. went to announce a vacation right after mosley fight instead of trying to negotiate with team pacquiao to make the fight happen :///
than people who continue to support pac coz there is 0 evidence
and been making his fans happy by staying active in the ring and make their money worth with all his fights
which one is worse???
Sure, bring up someone's personal life when you can't defend facts related boxing.
