[decipher]

Freddie, if you'd stop shaking for a second, you'd see it clear as day.

lmao!!!!!!!!! i felt bad for him at first..but after he made fighters come into the ring weight drained without caring about their health, **** him..**** pac and **** every pac fan!

[puromexicano]

Floyds really promoted my GBP..... And Pacquiao cheats on his wife...lol make the fight happen.... BS aside everyone is falling into the hype of this fight.... Man that's sad to know boxing has come this far....

This is just BULL$H!T from Roach. If he wanted him so bad he would just take the blood test and prove all the things he says.

[check hook]

something people dont understand is, that if you take PEDS, they will stay in your blood system for atleast 3 months, no matter what kind you take!! do the research, and manny agreed to give blood 24 days before the fight, and right after the fight, so no matter what, if he took PEDS, they would've showed up. its obvious that floyd mayweather is ducking the pacman with these outrageous demands

the most uneducated comment i have ever read on here.....even the most ardent pac supporters wouldn't post something that blatantly wrong on here........all in your first post aswell....well done!!!

Exactly,the lies and spin around Roach have undermined his credibility. The more he talks the more he comes over as a jerk and this is coming from someone that used to like and respect him. I wish he would shut up and just stick to training.

If Manny really wanted Mayweather so bad, we'd only have a few weeks left to wait for this fight. So, I like Roach and all, but Team Manny is full of **** on this one.

Your 1st post is a sad one. You know nothing of PEDs!

All I'm saying that Pacs fans and people could care less about what any of the mayweathers have to say. They don't influence or turn people against Pac. Its the people that already dislike Pac who beleieve what has been said.

That's not how Pac sees it. He said that people he knew were starting to ask him whether it was really true that he was on steroids, and that was when he decided it had all gone too far.

The people looking in just see a guy trying to clean up a sport KNOWN for juicing.

Judging from the press stories I read - or at least, those that were not written by Mayweather fans - almost all see it as "a plague on both your houses":

1) They see it as one boxer (Floyd) making wholly unreasonable demands, given that he was asking for a testing regime that no boxer had ever been asked to comply with before; given that Pacquiao had been willing to meet him part way; given that the majority of drugs experts think that the regime that Pac agreed to was sufficient to catch any PED use; given that Floyd had never asked any other fighter in the past to comply with such a regime; given that Floyd's promoter, who was backing him up, had refused a similar request when it was made by Judah for the proposed fight with Mosley, on the grounds that it was wrong to single out a single fighter; given that the negotiations were being held against the background of completely unsubstantiated allegations of cheating; and given that Mayweather is hardly known for having the highest standards of integrity himself, especially after coming in at 147 in his last fight after agreeing to come in no higher than 144.

2) But they also see it as another boxer (Pacquiao) killing a mega-fight that boxing needs, for the sake of a demand that while being unreasonable, should not have been allowed to be a deal breaker.

In other words, they blame both fighters.

Mayweather could in fact gone about it a different way but I doubt would have had to time for it to come into effect for a fight in March

Time wasn't the issue. If Mayweather had retracted all of his and his team's actual and implied allegations of cheating, apologised for them, and said this was not about thinking Pacquiao was a cheat, it was purely about raising standards, he'd have got his 14 day cut-off.

Both are to blame BUT team Pac could have said OK 14 days lets prove everyone wrong.

I agree with that sentence.

[Dave Rado]

Yes he did....but he also said it was conditional on his PPV outselling Pacs.......

So Dave....why should he accept 50/50 if his PPV outsells Pacs 2 top 1????

Maywether-Mosley is obviously a bigger fight than Pac-Clottey because Mosley is regarded by many as the #1 Welterweight, and Clottey is coming off a loss to someone Pac has already beaten.

Pac-Mosley would also outsell Mayweather-Clottey. So what? That doesn't prove anything about whether Pac or Mayweather is the bigger draw. That's bull****.

Roach is a dirty old liar and this proves it
