What made Manny so special

AN OVERVIEW: If anyone wants a neutral summary of the events.

In late 2009 and early 2010, as negotiations began for what was then called “the fight of the century,” Floyd Mayweather’s camp demanded Olympic-style random drug testing (blood and urine) for both fighters—up to the day of the fight.

Pacquiao’s camp objected to the blood testing close to the fight, claiming it would weaken him. He said he had a fear of needles (which he later denied) and insisted that giving blood within 30 days of the fight might affect his performance.

Mayweather and members of his team publicly insinuated that Pacquiao might be using performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), though they never provided evidence.

In response, Pacquiao filed a defamation lawsuit against Mayweather, his father Floyd Sr., and Golden Boy Promotions.

The case was settled out of court in 2012, with Mayweather's side reportedly paying Pacquiao a settlement and issuing a public apology.

Mayweather’s Camp: They insisted they were simply trying to “clean up the sport” and wanted strict drug testing for fairness and transparency.

Pacquiao’s Camp: They viewed it as an insult and a mind game, accusing Mayweather of trying to duck the fight or damage Pacquiao’s reputation.

Eventually, after years of failed negotiations, both fighters agreed to random testing for their May 2, 2015 fight. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) oversaw the program. By then, the public appetite for the fight had reached a fever pitch, and both men reportedly made over $100 million each.

The fight itself disappointed many fans, seen as too late and too slow-paced.

Mayweather won by unanimous decision.

The drug testing debate added to Mayweather’s “villain” persona and made Pacquiao appear victimized in some circles—but both fighters walked away richer than ever.

RE BOLD: Prize Fighting! I love it!

Because he needed drugs to jab, straight right, checkhook and turn Pacquiao for 12 rounds

They should have taught Pac to cut off the ring. Skills won this fight.

- - Half the fight was spent cowering on the ropes with his back turned.

Manny was only trying to serve him the sushi he ordered.

l'l sissy needs a squadron of 300lb beefsters to save him from the public.

Obviously because he believed Pacquiao was susp-icious. I assume the same reason that Pacquiao asked fighters to take extra testing.

But you ducked the question. Do you believe he needed 3 weeks to recover from giving a teaspoon of blood?

ok. You are certainly welcome to your opinion.

What about your opinion on the question I asked? Must be some reason you keep ignoring it. I think I made my point.

Ok....

I'm not sure what that has to do with what we were discussing. There's no reason to keep quoting me if you are just going to run from the discussion. You can preach your opinions to the forum in general without involving me.

You still don't get it.

Manny Pacquiao even entertaining Floyd's unfounded su****ions without any proof whatsoever, is proof positive of admitting some sort of guilt.

Floyd would have done all of you Floyd boys a good service if he just said he was scared

I don't know what kind of guilt you are referring to.

Why do you want to continue this conversation if you want to ignore any question I pose to you? Just let it go if you don't want an actual discussion.
