Al Bernstein: "Floyd and his minions killed the Pacquiao fight."

[SteveJarvey]

****** ***** Floyd thinks he can hide his pussiness.

He will expose himself more by picking a lame opponent

[tamsak]

30 days on and 30 days off is not irrelevant. In the beginning of training camp, Pacquiao simply doesn't take steroids. (if this is knowingly or not doesn't matter). Then after the what? 5 days? Pacquiao begins his steroid cycle and has nothing to worry about.



Yes it is the day of the fight. I never said Pacquiao should take the test the day of the fight(right before the fight) in the first place. Nor did I think it was a good idea. If he feels weak after getting his blood drawn, then have the blood test further out. Hell, Roach said Pacquiao feels weak for about 4-5 days. 14 days is hell of a lot of time to feel normal again.

yeah, you're only looking at fight night side... how about during training camp? he cant train 100% for his biggest fight of his life if he feels weak. and that would be an advantage for mayweather.

so i blame this all to mayweather. if he havent requested for this Olympic Drug Testing, this fight should have done..

Good Article and a Good Assesment by Al.

At the current stage in developments, it's both teams faults. if we look at the entire thing from its inception, two guys agreed to fight, signed the contracts, and then one guy demanded the other guy undergo an unrequired, unprecedented testing regimine. The blame can be placed various places but had the testing thing never had been introduced, we would be watching fight of the century in March....just saying.

Props to Al Bernstein for telling it like it is.

Mayweather wants Pacquiao to take a random blood test to make sure he(Mayweather) isn't being cheated.

WTF?! being cheated?? of what??

From my understanding. Floyd's father suspected Manny of steroids. Mayweather followed suit with what his father said and demanded olympic style drug testing. Why? because it's 10x stricter than NSAC testing.

so this is the reason why Floyd demands random tests, pretty ****ing lame if you ask me

Manny wants the fight thats why he COMPROMISED, even though he's really against the extra tests

I am a huge, huge Manny fan. Not a fan of Floyd at all.

I dont see how anyone can blame Floyd for this. The drug testing thing was a bit silly, but after he offered the two week window I dont see what the ****ing deal is. Manny needs a day? two? five? He gets a whole two ****ing weeks. That was the part where he was supposed to say "Yes", not make the 24-day offer.

Manny is the one who turned this into a **** measuring contest, which he certainly loses by default.
