How does EPO help Manny in his fight with Floyd?

[Khalid X]

I'm not saying that Pac is on anything.......but premise of the OP is kinda crazy. They are called Performance ENHANCING Drugs for a reason. They help guys performer better.

This isn't a video game where a guy's stats can only reach 100. Anyone....ANYONE could improve with PED's.

Of course PED can help you....Im not saying that. Of course EPO can help pac, but my question is how will it help him against Floyd. How does increased stamina help either fighter in this fight, when everyone know this will be a slow paced fight and not a brawl. Yeah if this was Marquez vs Diaz, Williams vs Martinez or another faced paced, action packed fight then yeah an edge in stamina may help. But this fight is far from that....

BTW I wont be responding to this thread. This isn't about If PED will help, but How EPO would help Pac in his fight with Floyd. People keep bring up all PED when I clearly narrowed down one (EPO) and if it would help in this fight.

I gotch ya. Well first off no one knows if Pac is on anything and even if he was taking PED's who is to say that he was specifically on EPO's.

Hypothetical's here:
But what baseline are we going under. Are you going off the premise that Pac was never on EPO and will start to use it against PBF. Then the differential from Pac's current incredible stamina, work-rate and durability and the improvement might not be that important.

But if you enlarge the scope and go off the baseline and just hypothesize that he has been on EPO since (I don't know) 135lbs. Then his not continuation of taking it would result in........Not carrying his speed at WW as much (slower), lower work rate and decreased stamina and power.

and there lies the problem. If he has been on EPO and stopped taking it his speed and power would still be the same and only his stamina/work rate would be affected. Also his hatton, cotto, Diaz and Marquez II fights were slow paced compared to all his past fights. Manny hasn't won a fight by overwhelming or outworking his opponents in years and actually fights a slower more controlled type of fight. If really had been taking that he would be pushing harder in fights to make them higher paced but the opposite has happened if you follow his last 5-6 fights.

BTW I said I wouldn't be responding to this thread but you seem like a good poster. The other guys in this thread lack intelligence and my points clearly went over there head.
