Comments Thread For: If Lance Armstrong Can Do It - Why Can’t Manny?

[Lorily]

the most recent statement coming from pacquiao himself is that he is fine with the blood test, just not on the day of the fight itself.

more than fair, cause he seems to believe it is one of the reason why he lost to morales. seems silly to us, but that's what he believes.

pacquiao already bend over more than he should have by agreeing on the additional tests. keep in mind, the additional tests have never been done before. of course they would question it. not to mention the one performing the test is a body that chosen by floyd's camp.

i don't know why people assume manny is already guilty when there is a legit reason why his camp questions such unusual terms.

Exactly! Very well put! How bout if Pac camp said o.k. then we want PBF to submit a stool sample 3 times a day for 2 weeks before the fight and a full stool sample after the fight... this is a battle of wills now. So, if PBF then said no, what would he be hiding? Silly, right? People are blowing this way out of proportion and thats what Mayweather camp wanted.
Pac has not refused blood tests. Last agreement made by Roach was no later than the day before and directly after. You might be able to void certain substances for testing through urine in a few days, but not through the blood.

that dude pacquiao wants one before the presser, and then after fight right? so what if he whooped floyds ass and was positive after? what would that look like?

stop acting like a neutral fan cause you are not.

if it was up to me, i would ask manny to take the tests and fight. but manny and his camp has a point. a point you and a lot of posters seem to ignore.

manny agreed to the tests he isn't even supposed to take. not bending over all the way is not a sign of trying to hide something. its a sign of not wanting to be floyd's *****. i don't know why he should be treated as a cheater cause he is not. evidence supports that, not any "gut feeling".

lol at you guys saying "*******s are unreasonable for defending pacquiao the roider"

pacquiao has every right to question terms never been done in boxing before. manny agreed to be tested by a body of floyd's choice which is not required by nevada or any sanctioning body. manny is willing to undergo such tests, provided that no blood too close to the fight (arum says 1 month, roach says 5 days, manny says 1 day) cause he believes it would affect him physically. why the fuck should he be hassled more than he already is? cause floyd says so?

not to mention gbp coming out with untrue statements that manny rejected the tests outright. it is misleading the public that manny is not willing to take the tests and has something to hide, where in fact, he is willing to take never-been-used-before testing by a body of floyd's choosing just to satisfy floyd's paranoia. he just doesn't want to be made to do something that is unnecessary and is uncomfortable with.

are my points unreasonable, and you gonna call me a *******?

I like Manny dude, of course I'm a bigger Floyd fan. I'm not going to post a novel, Manny needs to take the RANDOM TESTs period.y'all all his loyal fans should demand he take ALL the RANDOM test to clear his precious name. Didn't know you were a prophet and could ready Mannys mind...

He wasn't positive after any of his other fights, there is no reason to believe he would be for this one.

It continues to look worst by the minute and the mainstream US media will rip Manny in light of all the steroid allegations that we have dealt here in recent years. He needs to call a press conference and address the fans of boxing.

[chino727]

Your right he did agree to take the tests but he is trying to dictate exactly when he takes the tests and thats a problem. Totally defeats the purpose of random testing

Manny has agreed to have the test done a few days prior to the fight.That means in an 8 week training camp, 7 out of those 8 weeks they will be drawing blood and have him pissing in cups randomly.You really think hes going to stay clean for 7 weeks and then the last week roid up or use HGH or PEDS?come on....

way to go in ignoring my points.

he is open to the additional tests that is not required by any sanctioning body nor nevada, by a testing body of floyd's choice. him asking for a compromise is not any sign of hiding something.

the accusations are baseless and started from floyd's camp in the first place. he has every right to question terms never been done before.

still too long for you?

Thi post by TK Stewart is so idiotic. Why?

Boxing is way different than cycling. Comparing it to another sports is like comparing basketball to hockey or whatever it is.

The funny thing that Floyd can really win big time with Pac. I dont know whats Mayweathers goin.

both Floyd and Pac came out clean before by NSAC / Nevada state commission

I dont know what really the BIG issue here.

Just do what the boxing standards do, they can give blood after the fight even on post fight as simple as that. If Pac found to guilty then he must persecuted with right thing if not well pursue his legal with the Mayweathers esp. (Floyd Sr.)

Horrible article and horrible parrallel from TK Stewart.

Lance Amstrong always was suspected by frenchies for good reasons.

He get caught for corticoids in 1999 and there was the US postal scandal in 2000(like if Ariza get caught know with su****ious products).

So the MANNY/ARMSTRONG PARALLEL IS HORRIBLE.

Armstrong was suspected for good reasons(scandals,affairs)by comissions.
Manny is just because of Crackhead Senior allegations.
Gimme a break.

And,no,Armstrong isn't the best who ever lived in cyclism,but one of the bests wich is pretty different.

This article was bias from an Armstrong's stan more than boxing press.
