    If you think Mayweather sr was the only one talking about it or has that much power, you really are naive.


    Please show me links of anyone bringing up PEDS with Pac before Sr..

      Like I said.. Pac nobody *****..
      Ok you don't comprehend very well. I'll try one more time.
      • They accused him.
      • Pac agrees to negotiating anyway
      • Pac agrees to OST


      See how the first bullet becomes moot? No? Ok.

        I gotta wonder who is being set up for the fail - Floyd or Shane.

            Yea, it was already out there but still I am a believer that negotiations are best handled behind closed doors. Now both sides were playing in the media before that but to me things really came unglued when Golden Boy let out that one press release stating that Manny would not agree. Things were already starting to go bad with the Cowboys Stadium issue though.

            Like I said there is enough blame to go around but it all could have been avoided rather easily.

              Can't argue with you, man. Can't argue at all. Just wish they agreed.

                I would thnk Shane since he makes a better patsy, Floyd-Manny is just so much bigger than Manny-Mosley. If I was Shane I would not want the fight going to the cards, which sucks for him because going in there to knock out Mayweather is a pretty bad gameplan.

                  It's an interesting argument, but what if Floyd really believes that Manny is using? What if Floyd saw what Margarito did to Cotto and how it phucked up his career and want's to protect himself, not against a loss, but against being cheated.

                  I mean Mosley used PEDs, Margarito at the very least tried to use illegal wraps, it's not like he's making schit up.

                  I think the argument of Floyd picking matchups based on risk/reward is legit, but that is a separate issue.

                  Also the argument that PEDs are difficult to detect, is a spurious argument to use against Floyd's demands, as it would suggest that tighter controls should indeed be the new normal.

                    I would kill to see what Shane looks like in the gym.

                      The only thing I hate argueing with them about is that Floyd was in the wrong for asking for the testing to be done. I don't know how you can fault anyone in looking out for they think is in their best interest.
