Wrong, youre obviously not well informed enough to debate on this topic.

Im informed enough to know that there are professional opinions which go in both directions on this topic. You just choose to believe the ones that best suit your agenda.

Jab you know that big mouth dude aint scared of nobody. You know that. I tell you this though if its 17 days Floyd will ask for a bigger split, or gate, or PPV buy % or to drop the 10 Million penalty. If this fight happens whether you hate Floyd or not you know what the outcome will be.

I've always said I think Floyd will beat Pac. And yeah, Pac needs to check his ego at the door as well come negotiating time. But its team Pacquiao reaching out trying to make this fight happen. Floyd has no reason not to compromise if he wants the fight.

Think about how far they came. It went from 24 to 17. They'll get it done.

I hope so, but Im still pessimistic. Not just because of Floyd either. Their are to many huge ego's involved in this that could throw a wrench into the works at any given moment.

Can you explain to me how taking drugs inside of 17 days before a fight would not be beneficial?

Can you explain to me how they would be out of his system and he wouldn't fail the post fight blood work?

Still waiting for you to post that link where I supposedly said I was a "Mayweather hater". If you can't an apology will suffice.

There are only one or two steroids that I know of that will kick in and take effect in that short period of time, and both can be detected through urine.

Simple. The last few days before the fight is the "toning down" phase of the training. Meaning to say, the trainers gradually slow the pace of the work outs so as to prevent over training and stressing out the fighter's body. This way, on fight night, the fighter is fresh and ready to rumble.

The idea of taking drugs during training is to gain the benefits of it while flushing the drugs out of the system right before the fight night. But you can't get those same benefits unless you train several weeks before the fight.

Not only is less than two weeks a very short time frame, but you have to take into account the fact that they are slowing the pace of the training at that point.

Why would manny be ****** enough to cheat within those 17 days with all the speculation?

Hope they reach an agreement.
