[Breaking News] (ESPN) Arum Will Try to Get Pacman to Move on Testing

I'm still not sure what this 40 page circle jerk is about.

Manny has never said he would flat out refuse testing.



I understand the majority of posters who are excited with joy in here are not at all that bright,

but there still isn't a fight signed.

I guess in these times, a supposed Mayweather victory, according to his most loyal stans, in the press is about as good as a Mayweather victory against a credible and worthy welterweight in the ring.


I guess when you're favorite fighter has spent the last five years making excuse after excuse to avoid the best fighters in his own division, they have to take anything they might deem a victory to celebrate about.


sidenote, I seen Rod Barker got banned.

Is this true? What is his new moniker?

When HBO televised "Pacquiao/Hatton 24/7" -- the four-part series that followed the build up to Pacquiao's second-round knockout of Ricky Hatton to win the junior welterweight title in Las Vegas last May -- it aired footage of Pacquiao taking a routine blood test as part of his pre-fight medical exam in Los Angeles.

The blood test was conducted approximately 14 days before the fight; it punches holes in Pacquiao's argument that giving blood inside 30 days of a fight negatively impacts his performance.

Arum was intrigued by the "24/7" scenario. He told Reuters on Monday that he was ready to move away from Mayweather and announce a new opponent on Tuesday for Pacquiao, but that was before the "24/7" scenario was brought to his attention.

" ... I will transmit it [word of Pacquiao's 24/7 test] to Manny once [HBO Sports president] Ross Greenburg establishes the actual date of the test in '24/7' and [the Mayweather camp] makes a proposal based on what Ross has come up with," Arum told ESPN.com from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. "If that happens, I am sure I can convince Manny" to tighten the testing window.

See ESPN for full article.

This is just ******.Arum's projection of Manny as this "humble,devout Catholic, honest and humble" man is backfiring when Manny is caught surrounded in lies and scandalous behaviour.You would expect more from someone who is as "honourable" as Manny.
This is the sort of act that people would stereotype Floyd with,but ironically Manny has done this to himself.Floyd has appeased Manny with all of his own (manny's) demands for the contract,but he cannot accept one small task that is smaller than the fight itself.Before people say that "Manny is champ and should have the say so in the demands",ask yourself if he applied that same philosophy with Miguel Cotto,Ricky Hatton and even Oscar.What a f'ing joke this is.

Finally, an intelligent post.

Before i was on boxingscene i thought something was up and made those comments on youtube after seeing most of pac fights from early on, i became su****ious but not certain. I know fighters sometimes have spaghetti legs when they are at the lower weights and get KD by stiff jabs like what happened to pac against hussein, but i saw how he was able to recover fast from blows like he did against Larios, his recovery seem much better, volume of punches wouldnt decrease, his power increased, it just made me think about PEDS.

Good post. You weren't the only one. While everyone is concentrating on physique, there are other ways to use an "eye test," so to speak. And like you mentioned earlier, he's not the only superstar.

[IMDAZED]

This info proves Pac has been lying. He is not weakened at all within 30 days of testing, unless he planned on Knocking out Hatton in 1 round instead of 2. I still say 14 days is still too far out, 1 to 2 days tops. This guy is a top athlete suppose to be the best boxer on the planet but cant take a blood test. I aint buying it, and his fans shouldn't either.

I wholeheartedly agree.

[pac oww]

arum is a snake

[DiegoFuego]

Pacquiao got run over by an Arum Express. How can anyone ever support Pacquiao again after this? Even his own promoter has turned on him.

[wXh..]

Pacquiao must agree for testing to be allowed up to 48 hours prior to the fight.
