Mayweather Sr. Accuses Pacquiao of Steroid Use

[BoBeTs]

Wow! very strong accusation...

Sr., is one hell of a super class "A" moron...

[Roxas]

Floyd Sr cud definitely be right Pac shud definitely be checked out especally if he knocks out Cotto under 6 rounds....then I'll know for sure he is on roids

[ELPacman]

That's just fkn sad. Accusing the most exciting fighter of roids just because his son makes people walk out of the fights? No doubt Pacquaio has looked beast like based on his performances, but not physically. His body isn't veined out, and even his six pack looks to be fading at these higher weights. Or at least after the weigh-in. He's just a solid fighter whose filled into the division. He was struggling at 130lbs to make weight, now he's fighting at his nearly walk around weight. Sr. is just jealous of true success while his son owes thousands of dollars of debt.

mmm

i was just thinking about that last night, he might not be taking steroids but maybe hes using creatine i dont know if its ilegal in boxing it is for soccer players

[DLjunky]

Mayweather Sr. damn let my boy Floyd do his thing. Stop making him look bad.

[IMDAZED]

If that's true--where is he now? Does this suggest Pacquiao is some unnatural freak to absorb so effectively the steroids inside him--that he's mastered using steroids?

As somebody said earlier, the supplements Pacquiao takes might be the one doing the bulking process. Is anybody here an actual conditioning coach who knows the science of weight cutting?

You're asking a whole lot of questions. Not quite sure why they are aimed at me but at least you're doing something most people never will.

I do not know if Manny Pacquiao is on the juice. Maybe never will. My argument is that to dismiss the idea that he - or any other elite fighter - isn't is just silly. In fact, it's more likely that at least a few people in your top ten pound for pound ARE using.

Performance enhancers are the elephant in the living room everyone acknowledges and whispers about but, for the most part, ignore. Why? Because no one wants to blow the lid off of their sport. You don't think a good portion of those athletic freaks in the NFL aren't using? I'd guess it's worse than baseball. But no one wants to be Jose Canseco. You saw what happened: he suggested a few names and before we knew it, boom! We discover that most of the big dogs are users. From A-Rod to Barry to McGwire to Sammy...the list is endless.

No one wants to be that rat for boxing. Maybe it's for the best. But if you seriously think these fighters and trainers are holier than thou than I have some penis-growing pills I'd like to sell you.

obviously have a misunderstanding of what Creatine does.

the purpose of creatine if to help with water absorbtion into the muscles.

creatine itself doesnt help with strength. whhat it does is help the muscles absorb more water than what the muscles can naturally do.

when your muscles have more water in them, they have a bit more energy. so lets say before creatine you would only do 20 presses on the bench. well when you have creatine helping with more water absorbtion in the to muscles. your muscles havealittle more energy and you may be able to get 20 1/2 presses on bench. thats an example of how creatine works.

the draw back of creatine is that, it bloats your muscles with alot of water. its purpose is water retention so you have to do more cardio to get that extra water out

I remember reading an interview where one young, undefeated champ told a major publication that the secret to his training was creatine. Went on to explain how it backfired on him one time, the fight where he won the title. Ironically, that fighter was Shane Mosley.

**edit**

I believe it is still legal BTW

Here goes Floyd Sr. again talking all his crap. Go to the bathroom and leave your crap there. We're tired of hearing all your crap that comes out of your mouth. Your stinking up the place.

[ccl2003]

Just a piece of advice for Floyd Sr. : Consult a psychiatrist and stay away from drugs.
