Comments Thread For: Mayweather vs. Pacquiao: Top Rank Makes Final Offer

[Marduke]

Urine tests are a joke.

Atleast thats what Victor Conte said...you know the guy who has the biggest impact with steroids in all sports.

He also said that the USADA tests are a joke and easily beaten.

You haters are at the slippery slope where NO test is good enough, EVERYTHING can be hidden, etc. Get the hell out of here with that crap.

Pretty soon you guys will be screaming that there is nothing he can do to prove he's not cheating.

FACT.........

The guy Im rooting for in this fight has no problems accepting a 10,000,000 per pound and he has no problem being randomnly tested with no cut off dates or knowledge of the dates.

Props to Floyd.

Final offer? If thats his final offer then it is so clear to me that he doesn't want the fight. This is like the 20th final offer he has come up with. If mayweather agrees he will come up with number 21. Let the NSAC decide are you serious? Make your mind up Bob. This old man is crazy. If NSAC says yes to blood testing then what? Will Bob let them do it randomly or will he give dates? This is a joke. Lets see how many ppvs Pacquiao vs Paulie do. Pacman should just retire. Top Rank will never get my money again.

I can actually see that fight happening. Berto doesn't really pose much of a threat to him.

But, they both are advised by Al Haymon. And, if Berto beats Mosley which I doubt he will. I seriously doubt Haymon putting in his current star (Floyd) against his future star (Berto). So if Berto wins I seriously doubt they fight. Not cuz they are not willing but because of Al Haymon.

Fighting stronger drug testing so strongly is not a good look, Manny could have tried to make a good example to the whole sport starting a trend which could have helped boxing instead his whole team has thrown a fit.


Now Manny is innocent until proven guilty but this whole thing reminds me of baseball and now I really wanted him to be tested more because he appears to be hiding something.


I don't understand why people seem to have issue with better testing in this day and age, athletes are not trustworthy and in a sport like boxing where lifes can be ruined or even taken the best testing policies should be used. PED are no joke and if someone knows what they are doing how to hide them they can be very hard to detect.

i have always been a fan of pac supported him in all his fight's except against cotto .. but i am rooting for floyd he has done everything conceded on all terms and pac has been a straight up ***** ...i remember in 24/7 for pac vs. cotto roach mentioned how pac is no longer humble... i agree he has been acting like the biggest diva in all of sports. before the negotiations started i was sure floyd would make things very difficult but he is the one that has done everything to make this fight happen....pac has no credibility in my eyes because of his hardcore stand on random drug testing....is he on roids i don't know but this whole thing makes me wonder roach also trained toney when got caught for roids against ruiz...wether he is or not it won't matter floyd will win this fight i am sure of it there have been two time that he took a fight personal and was motivated 1. against coralles . 2. against gatti. he destroyed them both he will punish manny if this fight happens .

IF he is unwilling to submit to the best possible testing it is pretty hard for him to prove.

USADA is the best testing they can do and is the most trusted agency, but yes they are not perfect either but they are way above the NSAC tests.

Golden Boy has a good case which I hope will make NSAC do the blood tests....the thing about Pacquiao is that he doesn't trust Golden Boy like a red-haired step child...that's why he's so hesitant doing anything they want. He trusts NSAC so I expect him to do with blood tests if NSAC chooses to get more blood from both fighters.

Gotta be random blood tests to detect PED - the key is RANDOM tests.

Government agencies don't move that fast, not how things work. This is a huge cop out from Top Rank.



Manny can do whatever he wants but I am free to questiong his motives, as fighting better drug testing is not a good look and makes me want to see him get tested even more. Even if I think he is clean, I want to know he is clean now because I don't currently know that.
