Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao: Additional Tests Up To The Fighters

[Allucard]

Ellerbe insisted that Mayweather had nothing to do with it and it was the job of Hayman and himself “to protect him and give him the best chance to be successful” although in the same breath he said that inside the ring Mayweather will “have no problem with Pacquiao, none whatsoever.”

i thought floyd said this will be the easiest fight in his entire career and yet ellerbie is doing everything "to protect hiim and give him the best chance to be successful!"

OF course. It's his job. I see nothing wrong with that.

I know Pac fans detest the fact the there are people who think Pac could be on something. Your saying that people are claiming Pac is on steroids because he's so good. Pac is in fact good but why would you be 100% sure that he's not on something. Do you train him? Are you his nutritionalist? Are you with him day in and day out? The fact is that the reason people have their su****ions is not because he's doing so good. The reason is because of how the amount of weight classes he's moved up and with every weight class it just seems that he is much more stronger. That's why people have their su****ions, not because he is "so good". There are a lot of "so good" fighters out there but they haven't move up in weight and gotten stronger in each weight class like Pac. If your saying why people aren't claiming Floyd is on steroids because his move from the lighter divisions seemed more natural. Plus, you didn't see Floyd move up with this unbeleivable power. He just brought his skill to the upper divisions.

Bro, I'm not claiming Pac is on roids but dam, I can't totally dismiss the idea that he's not. You would probably be surprised what happens behind closed doors with a lot of athletes.

They should just do it, so that when PACQUIAO do the unthinkable and beat MAYWEATHER..ALL YOU HATERS, DOUBTERS AND MAYWEATHER NUTSUCKERS CAN SHUT THE **** UP.

I see where you are going with this, but I don't think he will come out positive. In fact, the Floyd fans might have ****ed themselves on this one.

The only excuse they would have had is, "well we don't know if Manny is clean or not...That is why he beat Floyd".

The minute Manny comes into the fight clean, and leaves the same way. Floyd fans will have no choice but to give him full credit. Something (if you haven't noticed) they seem not able to do.

I love it.

Yes, I agree with you. Some people has really having a hard time accepting the truth though. I know it really hurts but it will set you free.

that is very true. When he was standing right beside cotto, i was like damn!!! His head is like a size of a big watermelon. But i checked other fights and his head was already big though. But today, it just seems bigger. Maybe its because of his hair? Or something else....we'll see. Im hoping they really do the olympic style testing though.


It'll be funny as hell if both of em get exposed by it :d i hope not though cuz both are great already.

lololololololoolololollmaooooooooooo!!!!!!!!

I actually think floyd would still want the fight regardless. He wants the payday. The sanctioning body might not let it happen though. Regardless IMO Mayweather needs to improve on his performance from the JMM fight or he might have some problems.

An interesting quote here from Floyd in a recent interview with him:

MAYWEATHER: My toughest fight? Well, there’ve been different fights that have been very entertaining. When I fought [Juan Manuel] Marquez in September, I didn’t bring my A game. I beat him probably with a C game. Not to be bragging or boasting, because he’s one hell of a fighter—and he deserves to be number two, pound for pound. But I probably beat him with a C or a Dplus game. I only wish him the best, though, because he’s one hell of a fighter. He’s one hell of a guy.

I agree with what he is saying. I thought Floyd beat JMM in second gear. I don't think he can do that with Manny though. He needs to bring at a minimum his B game.

Dude, Floyd is expected to beat a bloated SFW JMM coz :
- JMM is not welterweight
- JMM is old
- Floyd has the reach & size advantage
- plus Floyd didn't even met the agreed catch weight
- most probably weighed 155 - 160lbs during the fight

And then Floyd is saying he beat JMM in his C or D+ level? This is pure arrogance! And he's saying JMM is a tough guy, what is this? complimenting while in-directly insulting JMM?

Props to JMM for calling out Floyd, where as Floyd is not responding to the calls of the TOP WWs. And then when the SFW (LW max) JMM calls him out, ah ok I heard you, I will fight you! Damn!

In reply to the dude talkin bout honoring weight issues on the contract... there is no weight issue pac & roach are the ones that need to stop asking for everyone to come down in weight and fight for the title at the right weight which is 147 cotto shouldn't of agreed to the catch weight either even tho he would of still got his ass whooped bc his trainer absolutely sux! But yeah whatever let em do the drug tests, no excuses... mayweather is gonna dominate him regardless aint no performance drugs going to save pac from gettin dominated... skills are natual and pac gets hit too much... PBF is just too much of a technical fighter for pac... period point blank!

Dude, the only catchweight Manny has was with Cotto at 145 and again for the NTH time, Cotto himself agreed and mentioned this, that this is his normal weight during weigh-in and rehydrate 8-10lbs come fight night. BTW, he weighs 146 when he fought Clottey.

Stop hating dude.

[pugay_kamay]

They're fighting in 3 months and you're still on this, pathetic. BTW, nice of you to duck my response on that Cotto issue, typical, just like Gayweather. So here it is again.

Your post:


My response:

Wapakman! ewww! it hurts! nice ownage bro!

[pugay_kamay]

OF course. It's his job. I see nothing wrong with that.

Yes of course, PROTECT YOURSELVES AT ALL TIMES.

And Team Mayweather said Pac is :

- one-dimensional
- no skills
- with or without roids Floyd will beat Pac
- etc...

But Team Mayweather want to have external drug testing entity to test both boxers. They are hoping Pac will decline, unfortunately Pac agreed to it w/o hesitation.

Funny thing is, Team Floyd is insulting Packy and yet they are the ones who thought of having such tests, and it's quite ironic. Aren't they scared?

Stop hating dude.

So do you agree that he fought Cotto in a catch weight but is fighting Floyd at full WW?

[pugay_kamay]

So do you agree that he fought Cotto in a catch weight but is fighting Floyd at full WW?

Yes, and it should be. And they've agreed @ 147.

For Cotto, he agreed to it, I can't turn back the clock now and ask Cotto not to agree with it.
