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

Superstitions aside, there's absolutely too much money on the table to not comply with Team Mayweather's request. Especially if Pacquaio knows he's clean but these alleged lawsuits against the Mayweathers and GBP and what not make Pacquaio look as if he has something to hide. Well said T.K. Stewart!

PAC already said he's ok with all the blood test except on the day of the fight.

I would have no problem with these tests as long as they were structured and engrained in all the santioning bodies rules and regulations. If they were used in all future world title fights it would help keep the sport clean and present a new, fresh image for the game.

However, the Mayweather's are trying to rush these tests into a single fight. There are no universal plans by santioning bodies to adopt these tests in the future. Therefore they are a novelty designed to upset and get an upperhand over another fighter.

You can only get upset if you're a drug cheat, Its easy to hide behind "He pass" all the test crap, And its easy to hide behind "This has never been done" before crap. It has to start from somewhere somehow, Am sure the NSAC didnt do any test on fighter 100 years ago but they started doing it one day.

And the higtlighted bit there made you look dumb since both fighter are going through the same test.

Bunch of Cheaters

Does Mayweather camp willing to do the same test on Floyd Jr.? No, it is one way, only on Pacquiao. Mayweather camp wants to win before the fight night.
They purposely done this with Marquez, poor Marquez he is just happy with
1.2M penalty.

No he didnt want to do the test thats why he said no fight, He want to do a test where he would have a knowledge of when he gets tested. The whole point is random if the test isnt random what the point of the test???

the major flaw in the comparison between Lance Armstrong and Manny Pacquiao is...


Lance Armstrong complied with all the mandatory tests that the cycling commision said were necessary, similarly so has Manny Pacquiao he has already said he will comply with any tests that the boxing commision say are necessary and he always has and always came clean.

What is being forced upon Manny is specific to him and not the rest of the boxing world. Yes Lance may of been tested more vigourously than the other cyclists but it was part of what he had to do and any other cyclist would of had to do if they were told to.

Yes they are willing, The test is for both fighters not just pacquiao and the more reason why people are getting su****ious about pac.

Houston we've got a problem.

Floyd Jr. acknowledges that this one-dimentional fighter has the power to beat him.

wrong info

mayweather is changing the rules...
lance is a cyclist not a boxer...

no professional boxer has ever gone through the OLYMPIC TESTING PROCEDURES....

MANNY IS WILLING TO PROVE BEING DRUG FREE... 3 TESTS ONE RIGHT AFTER THE FIGHT...IF THAT IS NOT ENUF THEN .....

ALL YOU PEOPLE ARE JUST HATING....

BY YOUR LOGIC ALL BOXERS AND FLOYD ALSO CHEAT BECAUSE THEY HAVE NEVER GONE THROUGH THIS TEST...

THIS IS NOTHING MORE THAN A WITCH HUNT... SORE CHEAP LOSERS....

What words you cannot grasp. He said he will do all the blood test but not on the same day of the fight. So it means USADA can come anytime but not on March 13. If USADA decided to come 40 hour or let's say 26 hours prior to fight, Pac will comply. Let me put this way anytime before March 13.

Anytime = Random.
