Miguel Cotto is dead up speaking the truth. Can't hate him for that.

What's up Grus? Glad I found u on here. Give me tour honest opinion! Are u getting the feeingl Arum thru Cotto under the bus for both of his career losses? First loaded gloves, now Peds! And with guys under the same banner! He's got to be shell shocked! Their can't be any trust in that relationship anymore! Next it's this May-Pac circus! What's your take?

maybe you should hear it from roy jones jr. more credible than miguel cotto which was beaten by pac .. ROY JONES JR SIDES WITH PACQUIAO: "I WOULDN'T TAKE ANY EXTRA TESTS!"
By G. Leon

GL: Are you aware of the ongoing crisis surrounding the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight? "Most definitely." GL: Do you have an opinion on it? "You could see Pacquiao's side, why should he change for Floyd? A fight don't start in the ring, it starts when the negotiation starts. If these are the rules, we're going to stick by the standard rules. On the other hand, I understand he's saying something been going on, but the problem with that is, if you're going to check him why didn't you check Marquez? Why didn't you make anybody else do it? It's kind of strange to call him out on this and nobody else."

GL: Do you see anything in Pacquiao that would lead you to feel su****ious?

RJ: "No. The kid is strong, he came up in weight and brought his stregth. Nowadays the testing is good enough, they got it to where you can't even take over the counter products. I can testify to that. The testing is very good right now and there's nothing he could really do that they can't find. Why make Pacquiao take the test and not anybody else?"

GL: Would you have made such a concession for John Ruiz or any of your other big fights?

RJ: "Hell naw. Why change the rules on me? Because I'm coming up in weight means I'm doing steroids? They're giving you a test for that anyway. It would be something that would aggravate me because then after I beat you, I was on something, don't play with me. Either you want to fight or you don't want to fight.

Pac already agreed to unlimited random urine test. Urine test is better in detecting EPO than blood test.

Not according to Conte who made his LIVING and loads of money on beating test and staying 2 steps ahead of testers. Conte states that blood test is "...more important..."

Read the quotation:

:'In my opinion, blood testing for the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight is more important for detecting possible blood doping or use of EPO than it is for human growth hormone. Measuring hematocrit levels (percentage of red blood cells to total whole blood volume) is very important. For example, even without a positive urine test for EPO, cyclists are temporarily suspended for two weeks if their hematocrit is greater than 50%. An elevated hematocrit can provide a significant advantage to a fighter by enhancing oxygen uptake and utilization. This would benefit a fighter in training and especially during the later rounds of a fight."

this comment from Miguel doesn't surprise me...and I believe that the majority of those that follow this sport agrees with Cotto's statement..."Pacquiao's refusal raises questions." Also, the US media seems to feel the same way and they will be all over this story until something changes.

No it doesn't. Show me any published research study that indicates HGH increase athletic performance. Even Conte who manufactures PEDs ddeosnt even think highly of HGH.

Then whu is it banned and why so many athletes use it?! Damm idiot!
