[check hook]

Great article....truth hurts

It's neither great nor objective. It's using 3 or 4 day old quotes and being rather ******* with interpretation of actual facts.

[Carpe Diem]

This article is definitely written by a pacquiao **** ryder. Mayweather didn't suddenly demand olympic style testing, Team Pacquiao knew that he wanted additional testing, Mayweather surprised them when he asked for RANDOM BLOOD TESTING to be included in the additional test's they wanted. Freddie Roach said before that he had no problem with Pacquaio taking additional blood test, but "RANDOM' blood testing he said was out of the question because according to him, he didn't want mayweather to dictate the rules of NSAC not to mention he didnt want manny being woke up to be poked by needles throughout training camp.

I might come off as a mayweather fan, but thats far from the truth, i like his skill set in the ring, and personally i think he is an arrogant *******. However, as much as i want to see him lose his 0, because i feel that he would be humbled afterwards, i dont want to see it this Saturday, because it would give Pacquiao a pass on dealing with a serious issue at hand. I love this sport of boxing more than any other, and in the past decade i see the integrity of American sports under scrutiny i.e, (baseball, track, football and now boxing) for atheletes breaking records who cheated to do so.

From the minute it was announced that Mayweather wanted RANDOM BLOOD TESTING, Team pacquiao's excuses change to much for me (or anybody with common sense) to believe them. Im not saying that makes him guilty, but it bothers me that when you put a microphone in his face he can talk about anything, his politics, his movie career, his singing, who he may want to fight next, and the minute you hear somebody ask him anything about steroids, all of a sudden; ME-NO-SPEAKA-DE-INGLES and here comes Bob Arum or Freddie Roach speaking on his behalf on the issue.

After Pacquiao defeated Miguel Cotto, Shane Mosley on 2 occasions approached Freddie Roach about a possible fight at 147lbs, Freddie Roach declined. Mosley asked why would you fight Oscar De La Hoya at 147lbs, and not him, and Roach's response was your not De La Hoya. After Pacquiao's win over Joshua Clottey, Freddie Roach had the nerve to say that Mayweather was trying to change the rules of boxing (hinting at the fact that if he didn't back off his demands for O.S.T) he would have no problem at all fighting Mosley. Honestly, i think its because Mosley already went on record and said that he wouldn't ask for additional tesitng past the NSAC.

So according to Roach, by mayweather demanding additional testing he's trying to change the rules of boxing. So what was it called when Team Pacquiao demanded that at welterweight they fight with 8oz gloves when standard boxing gloves are 10oz at WW. What was it called when he had mayweather agree to a 10mil per pound weight limit fee if mayweather was overweight. You guys have the nerve to put the blame on mayweather, my question is, we all heard the compromises that Mayweather agreed too, what did team pacquiao agree to compromise on. If i didnt' know any better it almost seems like Team Pacquiao tried to discourage mayweather from taking the fight just so the issue of O.S.T wouldnt not arise. Well mayweather agreed, and the topic is on the table, so what happens if Mayweather wins saturday, because he went on record and said that this time around he wants testing all the way up til fight night, what would pacquiao's reason be then.

Can you imagine if this was vice versa, and it was mayweather who refused the test? The public outcry for him to stand up to the plate and take the test would ring so loud around this country that we probably wouldnt let this guy step into a boxing ring until our curiousities were satisified. Look at Barry Bonds in baseball for example, this guy has taking and passed more test than Manny pacquiao has, and unlike manny, who only seemed to get great after he hired Alex (i make manny special blends) Ariza, Barry bonds was a sure hall of famer before we believed he started using, and that motha****a became the baseball antichrist and cant even get a job. Even though he never tested positive. But we look at his numbers over the latter part of his career and question his accomplishments. SO why are we not allowed to do the same with Manny. Listen im gonna tell you.

Because if manny is not the p4p king and face of boxing then who is, not that ****** ass, ****y, arrogant, disrespectful ni--a, with the crime riddled family we see on 24-7 throwing wads of cash around reminding all us Americans that financially we're not on his level, no offense, but whitey ain't having that.

Damn, no need to write an essay.

Floyd struggled against Hatton until he adjusted and fought Hatton at a weight class he wasnt comfortable with. TRUE

Pac embarrassed Hatton in 2rds with no trouble in Hattons weight class.

Floyd won a split decision over washed up Delaquitter.

Pac embarrassed the washed up Delaquitter in a one sided fashion.

Floyd has never fought at a legitimate Welterweight until now..

Pac fought Cotto and Clottey..

Why does Pac get fighter of the decade? Cause he's fought anyone you put in the ring with him.. and has done it with fashion..

Silly post....devoid of all context.....almost as unprofessional as a certain author who wrote this trash.

[Calilloyd]

What this writer "forgot " to mention is that Morales was weight drained and past his prime when Pacquiao fought him for the 2nd and third time.And he also "forgot" to mention that Marquez was coming off 2 knockout wins of Cassamayor and Juan Diaz when Marquez fought Mayweather.

Of course he's not going to mention that. It would defeat the purpose of his agenda.

Mr. Nathanielz, what you have just wrote, is the most insanely idiotic thing I have ever read. At no point, in your rambling incoherent 'article' were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this website is now dumber for having read it. I award you no journalistic credibility and may God have mercy on your soul.


P.S. This article should have just been titled: Floyd is Focused on Mosley - but instead of discussing that I will now defend Manny Pacquiao to the wire because I'm a sociopath like that

co-sign.....i lost IQ points reading this diatribe.

The Mayweathers are obsessed and possessed by charm of Manny 'The Pacman" Pacquiao. The fight with Shane is just few days away and the Ugly Duckling is still talking about Manny. There must be something in Manny that makes KFC feels very insecured.

And this is coming from a matured 64 years old man..

WOW YOU ARE A **** TARD. Hatton was a terrible 147lber who barely (gift decision) got by collazo. At 140 where he could use his size he was undefeated and the lineal and ring champion. Why did floyd make him come up in weight? ha. The oscar fights cancel out because oscar was **** when both of the fought him. Except Pac dominated every rd and made him quit and Floyd won a boring SPLIT DECISION. Pac fought Cotto at 145, BIG ****ING DEAL THE GUY WAS FIGHTING AT 130 2YRS EARLIER AND HE FACED ONE OF THE TOP 2 WW'S (THE OTHER ONE MOSLEY WHO HE BEAT). You realize Floyd fought Judah after he had lost to a terrible Baldomir and then fought Baldomir BOTH WERE ****ING TERRIBLE FIGHTS. HE DID MANAGE TO AVOID COTTO, MARGARITO, MOSLEY AND PWILL THOUGH. I LIKE A LOT OF FIGHTERS BUT I ONLY HATE ONE AND THAT IS FLOYD BECAUSE HE ONLY CARES ABOUT THE MONEY AND NOT THE SPORT OR THE FANS.

excellent post my friend

[burnerdafck]

Assuming if somthing was 'vice versa' is just a way out of an argument. I can sit here all day and talk about WHAT IF Pacquiao made someone come up 2 weight classes and Mayweather actually fought a welterweight at an agreed weight months in advance....it doesn't matter. I think Pacquiao should take the blood tests with a 3 day cut off date, since it is, to him, a psychological disadvantage before a fight (as he mentioned long ago after the 1st Morales fight), Manny believes it's physical but I think that's where he is hampered psychologically, letting that effect his mind. 3 days should allow him the time to heal, mentally more so than physically. But its important to think about the egos involved, remember just days ago shane responded to Floyds trash talk, and immediately Floyd issued a statement claiming, 'we got him talking trash, we beat him mentally.' If Pacquiao allows the tests to continue up until the fight, Mayweather will have that to say again, and neither fighter wants the other to have a 'mental' edge even if its an imagined one. I do however believe Pacquiao will agree to the tests, he cares too much what boxing fans have to say to let Mayweather discredit him. Maybe Pacquiao, like I was, was actually surprised the blood tests can be taken AFTER the workouts as seen on 24/7. I think Pacquiao, like myself, believed they would be very intrusive, but now it doesn't look too bad, just more blood than I expected. Also to go off topic real quickly, in response, steriods in baseball are for strength purposes, steriods wont help your footwork, defense - those are Pacquiao's most improved aspects (through the last 10 years), if you remember his earlier fights prior to Diaz, he has always had a high punch output, and has gradually improved his combinations throughout his career.

I don't know who's more obsessed with Manny, Ronnie or Elie.

Journalism is getting a little agressive these days.. this article just called floyd a ***** lol
