Malignaggi EMPHATICALLY re-asserts the Pacquiao steroid allegations.

he retained many of his attributes as he moved up because he wasn't killing himself to make the lightweight limit anymore. He actually got stronger, if you knew anything about boxing, you'd know that he gave Hagler one of his toughest fights in his career(how can you do that without punching power), and he became super middleweight champ when he beat Iran Barkley(He even wobbled him a few times in the fight).
Duran slowed down when he moved up
Floyd slowed down when he moved up
And so on
But Pacman has gone faster and biggerComment

duran retained alot of his speed when he moved up, Pacquiao hasn't gotten faster. He just throws more combinations and has a better punch repertoire now. He was faster at 130 and below. Punching power is one of the first things to go because as you move up in weight the guys get bigger so, it takes more to hurt them. Cotto and Hatton's chins have always been suspect.Last edited by Don Johnson; 12-06-2009, 11:56 PM.Comment

Hatton, Cotto, and DLH had major problems with his speed.
They couldn't see or time **** and got caught.Comment

Pacquiao DEFINITELY has slowed down since going up. I've never seen Pacquiao outmuscle his opponents in a clinch or when their on the ropes. Floyd is still just as fast as he was--you just don't notice it because he barely throws combinations anymore like he did in the Demarcus Corely fight.Comment

Here is what I will say:
Roger Clemens, Alex Rodriguez, barry bonds, gary sheffield, John rocker, Sammy Sosa, mark mcGwire, Marion Jones, tim Montgomery, Bill Romanowski...
All of them were "suspected" prior to getting caught. The talk was "rumour".
There was smoke, and then....
Romo came from a time in the league when roids were an epidemic. When he was with the 49's he was using(that is common knowledge).
Those are all bad examples. I know what you are trying to say, but those are just not good examples.
Plus: There has been no real change in Pac appearance. There was a HUGE change in the appearance of Mosley(when he was suspected of using).
It also doesn't suprise me that most of the Floyd fans are all over this. If this same thing was happening to Floyd, they would be singing a very different tune.
To The Person I Quoted: Not saying you are a Floyd fan, I was just speaking on all the post I have read to this point.Comment
