Mayweather Lawsuit
Agreed and rightfully so. Here is the problem once the accusation was put out there and no doubt that Floyd was quite aware of the matter, then you will have a certain percentage of the public that will forever believe that Manny did in fact take something to enchance his performance.
This will never go away and Manny's acomblishments will always be in question.
Why should Manny agree to something never used before in professional boxing and if you know boxers, my son was a professional, they all have very serious superstitions, putting a glove on a specific hand first, climbing through the ropes left foot first, touching the ring apron before the bell rings, certain foods, drinks, etc. So yes, I believe that Manny does in fact not want to be part of a change in blood taking that was never required before.
Amazing that Shane Mosely had the nerve to comment on this after he admitted to taking something before winning over Oscar or that Cotto chimes in as well, wonder why? Just looking to become part of the equation in getting a fight with Manny; Manny is where the big purses are.
What Floyd and his family did to try to get some mental advantage over Manny has backfired, not only could it mean no fight, they have managed to cast another gray area over the already dying sport of boxing.
This is why MMA is filling arenas' , unlike boxing matches, few controversial decisions, good refereeing, judging and tough guys that just go at, not spoiled little babies.
Manny has done for boxing what Ali did during his time, now a bunch of fools come along and tear it down, well that hurt boxing not Manny because those that know and support him will remain faithful and Manny will make money no matter who he picks to fight. Just a shame that this put's another black eye on a beat up sport.:boxing:
