Paul Malignaggi Explains Why He Thinks Manny Has Used PEDs

[KabukiJoe]

Boxers are diffirent from bodybuilders. A boxer has an off season weight(not training for a fight). He needs to cut down weight to reach a certain division he fights. Then gain some of it back from the official weigh to fight night.

A bodybuilder has an off season weight and during competition, cuts down on weight. But they do not hydrate like boxers. When they cut down, they stay the same weight cuz they need to be define, ripped, lean(whatever you call it) to show their muscles.

...true...a body builder really isn't concerned with weight...the thing about boxing is when you put on "mass" it makes you slower and your core temp increases so you have a tendacy to over heat when "working"...Manny doesn't seem to have gotten any slower...I always suspected Holyfield of juicing and I think he might have had a bad test once or twice...

to be fair,we did see a different side to pac this week(which i liked). "Liars go to hell!!"

...yeah, but he doesn't have anger issues...if he did, we'd all be reading about it...

Got to respect Paulie. LOL.....He doesn't bite his tounge for anyone.

Is that why Mosley takes blood tests now before every fight? 'Cos last time I checked he'd admitted to roiding but has gotten away with not being tested blood-wise since.

If Mosley wasnt caught by the NSAC urine test..what makes you think it would catch Pac?..what Mosley was taking couldnt be picked up by urine test, much like the HGH/EPO people believe Pac may be using..

that actually makes it seem worse for Pac..Mosley refused testing for Judah.
and now Pac refused testing for Mayweather...hmmm

[randel]

His opinions are as valid as anyone posting here.
I like that he at least explained himself.
Im not sure Pac has done that yet.




No Paulie.....its more like the F1 driver, who drove so well and left everyone so far behind he took offence to being asked to take a breathalizer test, and refused out of principle.

Pac taking the test and proving he is clean, then getting easily out boxed by Floyd will still make many people believe he was using for Cotto, or Oscar or Hatton.

Passing the test at this point wont stop the rumors and therefore he is taking legal action.

So bull****.. Pacquiao is a mediocre boxer who became great because of PED's or steroids... So bull****...

why are some people calling Paulie a loser? So u guys can have your opinion in a forum but he can't? at least he is explaining where he comes from with all this and not just going for one or the other being a fan-boy.

Truth is I like Manny as a boxer and strongly dislike Floyd, but this doesn't look good on manny and u guys are acting crazy in here

Paulie's used logic to back up his assertion which is way better than what most of the posters on here do. btw does anyone remember Mosley exhibiting 'roid rage? & even though Vargas seemed surly for the De La Hoya bout there were no reports of 'roid rage concerning him. The fact is, when we see boxers most of the time, they are training, which is already violent and aggressive, (hitting bags, sparring). If the dude is clean he should take whatever tests for the good of his career & the sport- anybody who says different is probably delusional. btw Paulie, if he stays in character could pull off the upset.

Its pretty simple if you have nothing to hide you would take any test and fight for 40 million and a chance to show people you are clean and what you're doing is natural.

No if you're a Filipino - you don't. If you're a Filipino and somebody ruined your reputation like that you take your gun and bolo (sword) and start killing the perpetrator including their families.

...I disagree...when I was really serious about weight lifting my workout partner used androstein and all I ever did was load up on protein...he used to always get pissed off because I'm not very big but I was consistently pushing more at everything...it's all about the genes baby...the biggest thing about roids is "roid rage" and I have never seen anything on Manny "roid raging"...he seems to be the complete opposite of someone that's on roids...and you can't hide "roid rage" btw...



Kabuki Joe

but thats the thing..no one (Not ever Sr. himself) ever said steroids as the main intake..that word is thrown around as a general use..whats believed is he is using supplements of HGH/EPO...ect..that is what the blood test is mainly for...since that cannot be detected in urine..also..I dont remember seeing Toney/Mosley/RJJ in "roid rage"
