Public siding with Mayweathers Steroid Testing stance?

[Pullcounter]

It looks that way to me. In the post fight interview with Merchant everyone was applauding and cheering when he said Manny should just take the tests. Also in the post press conference everyone was clapping when he mentioned it again. Public opinion is turning against Pacman and he's looking guiltier by the day especially when Mayweather himself will take the SAME tests. He's not asking Manny do to something that he won't do himself. Mosley also did it with no problem and he was an ex steroid user. So how does that make Manny look right now??

floyd just came off a dominating victory so the attitudes of the people there would be skewed a little bit. at the end of the day floyd has to compromise.

cotto looked as good as it ever did.

the weight was a non-issue. so does the beating he took from margarito...

good job hyping floyd's wins and downplaying pac's...

Nah now he doesn't have to compromise. He did before this win but now Manny has to compromise. Mayweather tried to compromise the last time and even offered a 14 day cutoff which he shouldn't have even bended on but Manny refused. He also agreed to go 50/50 on the money. Now after how much this fight is gonna sell he doesn't have to go 50/50 on the money or bend on the testing since him and shane didnt have no cutoff date. The ball is in Mannys court. Why would he turn down probably 30 million over a blood test if he has nothing to hide?

50,000 people were cheering last March when Roach said Floyd was ducking the fight against Pac, and would abide by the NSAC rules only. Does that mean anything?

I am sure there were more people in the Texas stadium last March than in the MGM Grand last night

And you'd presume that because you're ******. Floyd doesn't have to compromise his position in the slightest. After last night, he's in the position to call the shots, the media is beginning to side with his stance on the testing methods. Pac can either take the test, or go fight Margarito or some other irrelevant fighter. Floyd will go on to fight Martinez, Williams, or someone else that'll bring in decent revenue.

Cotto looked good? No he didn't. He didnt even look good against Clottey so what are you talking about? Cotto didnt have no where near the same velocity in his punches that he had when he fought Judah and Mosley. The dude is ruined and you know it. He won't even beat Yuri Foreman. Mark my words.

Who cares really, the whole problem is not mayweather or pac its that boxing is an unorganized mess of a sport where one athlete can pick and choose who he wants to fight and on what terms, I don't know about anyone else but how is that a sport...

spin a little harder, maybe you'll erase the memory of the boo's after merchant asked if there was any other way and mayeather jr said no fight

not so sure about the yuri foreman. he's coming up in weight so that's a factor to consider.

clottey has never lost convincingly before pac. so that is more of a testament to how good clottey is.

and don't get fooled by the scorecards of pac-cotto. the first few rounds were very competetive.

There were no boos. If there were there were probably very few. But listen to the cheers when he said Manny has to take the tests.
