Comments Thread For: Roach Talks Pacquiao/Steroids, Mayweather's Weight, More

[Laborer]

Roach isnt getting burned for thinking they both need to come in at 147, Any muppet knows and would agree that 147 should be 147 for both guys, The problem is the blood test that Roach doesnt want 6 weeks before the fight.

you should read the post i replied to, you sounded like someone jumping into a conversation cuz you heard the last sentence and it got your attention.

Coach Roach talks to much and we all know pride comes before a fall. I look forward to Mr Mayweather teaching Manny the art of boxing.

this time Roach talked with sincerity but still you tag him as talking too much.. but the May camp who talked too much of trashes seems more better for you! Your case as Pac hater is hopeless.. tsk! tsk! tsk!

Every other boxer won the welterweight title at 147, but Manny won it at 145...why did Cotto have to fight at 145???

because cotto and his camp agreed to put his belt on the line at 145 to get a shot at beating pacquiao and get the biggest pay day of his career.

mosley was willing to fight at a lower weight. pacquiao has all the bargaining chips and he earned them.

does Pacman need a night light and does pacbaby need Buboy to read him a bedtime story???? pacquiao should stop crying and take the test....this smells fishy

Take a bath so you won't smell fishy...

logic. Pac "forced' cotto at 145, and cotto agreed. end of story. if PBF and Pac agree on 147 then they should come in at 147, as agreed. either of them going beyond that is clearly violating his part of the deal. why is roach being burned at the stake for this line of thinking?

Actually i read every single post on the thread before i replied to yours, And your post about and the highlighted bit caught my attention, It seems you tried to imply why people are critising Roach for was the weight...Which is not what people are critising Roach for,If am wrong then you can correct me and i would apologies.

I might have to take a Holiday away from boxing till fight night, I dont think i can take all this BS from boxing fans or trainers etc for 3 months..

What a luxury that would be...

But completely unfeasible, considering a) how addictive this place is at the best and worst of times, and b) I have bets to potentially honour. :laff2:

enlighten me and pls answer my question with bases....

On your question: I do not know when the last time a drug test like this was done in boxing and I do not have an example for you.

The point of the test is not to build up stats on how many times it's done or not. Whether Paquiao has passed drug tests be for is of the question. You can not assume that because he passed a urine test in November, he will also pass a blood test.

LOL, what did Roger say about Mr.Futch? And who is Mr.Futch? Is he the mentally challenged guy Roach has sticking around?

Isn't he his dead trainer? Mybe he's alive, I dunno.

Roach won't "allow" Manny to take any blood tests 6 weeks before the fight? Why not? If they have nothing to hide it should be no problem.

6 weeks before the fight?? that's too long and drug test render useless if so. IMO, drugs are taken just few days before the fight to have an effect at least not 6 weeks before the fight. That means, if somebody will take drugs he will do it just after that blood testing, let's say 6 weeks just after the testing to the day of the fight.

Roach said before he's already dead. That's why he hates if someone maligned his trainer because he can no longer defend himself as he stated here.
