Lets look at history. Shane, Bonds and Vargas "So called" didn't know what was given to them. Ariza is now saying, Pacquiao doesn't know what he's taking. See the cycle? In my honest opinion, looks like Ariza is running closer to a dead end.Comment

Does anyone here actually get their news from credible sources, or do they just believe every opinion written by the boxing blogs based on which fighter they favor?
Ariza has been fairly consistent. He admits that Manny takes supplements, but all athletes do. Taking supplements could be considered performance enhancing, but it's certainly not illegal.
"When he first started saying that stuff, I didn't really address it because it was coming from Floyd," a clearly frustrated Ariza told me the other day on the telephone. "But things like that can start to snowball. I'm not saying this to be demeaning, but Floyd never finished high school and I'm not sure he knows the difference between steroids and supplements, which can be confusing. Nouns, subjects and verbs can also be confusing if you don't finish high school. I'm just not sure Floyd knows the difference.
"I don't give Manny any of that stuff. He's gone though his life without taking that."
Ariza said the only thing Pacquiao uses for his strength is hard work, a 7,000-calorie-a-day diet and approved supplements, which Ariza gives him.
"He does take supplements," Ariza said. "Absolutely, he has to. This couldn't be done without them. I'm talking about multi-vitamins, trace minerals. We take other supplements for his kidney and liver because Manny is on such a high-protein diet. I blend several different kinds of proteins. We do take those things without a doubt, but all of them -- all of them -- are perfectly legal. I make sure I stay with the same brands I have used for years to make sure there are no additives I'm unaware of. If we did anything wrong it would show up in Manny's urinalysis and I am completely in control of what goes into Manny. He knows everything he takes all comes from me and everything he puts into his body is my responsibility. I take it seriously."Comment

What exactly made you think this? Please go into detail.
Was it the picture perfect punch to Hattons chin? Or that fact that he was just head and shoulders better than Hatton?
Was it waht he did to Oscar? He was so little compared to Oscar in that fight.
Or was the straw that broke the camels back Cotto? That fact that he was to fast for Cotto? The fact the his two knock downs were very well placed punches? Or the fact that he took Cotto's shots?
Keep in mind, many say Oscar was old and drained, so Manny should have done that.
Hatton was all hype and ruined by Floyd, so Pac should have done that.
Cotto was a shell, so Manny should have done that.Comment
