Very Good informative Larry Merchant interview regarding Floyd/Pac.

[Ravishing]

that's why this forum will never have sensible discussion when it comes to topic about floyd-pac. it's almost like a battle of wits of who has a bigger vagina but in the end they both stinks.

I just don't get caught up in things I myself don't have concrete evidence of, yet try to post 24 paragraphs on how Manny "Could Be" on something to make him look bad and Floyd look like a Saint. There's always a lot more than what's on the surface.

Look alt.......

I know you havent been watching the sport long but Merchant is a Floyd hater and never has anything good to say about him. So why would this interview be any different?

I've been watching the sport probably longer than you have.
& this is Sin City, don't give me that bull****. My last account was banned.

The sad thing is, if Bob doesn't float like 7-10 different reasons for not taking tests this really isn't a big deal.

Another good point, That people like Larry fail to want to address. They want to jump on Why Mayweather asked for the test, but Dont question the 7-10+ different reasons Team Pac has said they dont want to take the test.

Cool run with the thought that Mayweather is Scared, Now Larry please break down the 7-10+ reasons that Team Pac has given why they wont take the test. He wont address that, though.

Conversely, its hard when a Pac fan says he can't be dirty becasue he is an honorable man and wouldn't do that because he is a humble guy who fights for the people. Then I see articles from the Philipines about him and a hooker. It's the fans on the far left and far right that make these debates insane.

Look, put it like this, boxers arent scared of each other... period.

Personally, I know that. But that's not going to stop casual fans (who buy PPVs) from thinking what they wanna think. Why is it ok to say Pacquiao is hiding something, but not say Floyd may be scared? How is one justifiable and the other not? It comes down to what you want to believe...period.

You dont need to be an expert on PEDs to know that testing is needed to ensure a level playing field. GTFO with your bull****. Thats the kind of logic I wouldnt need to explain to a 7 year old.

Also refrain from projecting your ignorance unto others. Just cause you dont know **** doesnt mean that others haven't done the research to educate themselves.

lol don't compare yourself as a keyboard warrior with larry merchant. here you can say whatever you want because you're hiding behind a bogus name. i'd bet you wouldn't even dare reveal your real identity to back up your ****** talks. you want larry merchant to say ost is needed to ensure a fair playing field...that's like saying nsac test is useless. and even if that is true do your realize the consequences of that to larry merchant as a hbo commentator?

I highly doubt you or a few of the other Mayweather fans really want to see this fight.. too much at risk because you know he has the possibility to lose and your fandom is solely built up on Mayweather's undefeated record. nothing else..
Y'all don't really want this fight to happen. If you did then you wouldn't really care about speculation and unnecessary drug tests that aren't even pushed by the commission.

I dont speak for every Mayweather fan but...

Of course I want the fight to happen. Its the most important fight in the sport, to me, since Pea-Chavez, and will seal an ATGs legacy for good. Not to mention that it will shut up a whole bunch of fans.

I dont think the extra testing is necessary, but I believe in a fighter (any fighter) having the right to request it.

I believe the best drug testing is a BONUS for the sport, for obvious reasons, and I do not believe testing interferes with an athletes performance.

I believe that if you are against his request, then you should have also lost respect for Manny when he makes his own rules.

Brick Wall Just a question cause this post is interesting.

Are you suggesting that HBO may already know the truth about Pac but are using it for their advantage? What I mean is they may know he is clean but don't totally dismiss floyd's points or they know he is dirty but want to make the money anyway?

[Cash Cow]

Not blaming the victim. He's merely asking if Floyd is willing to throw away $40mil for a fight that he himself labled as "easy work and one dimensional" regardless of the fact that he's on PED's or not.

Merchant isnt saying that Floyd is wrong for not going through with the fight regardless. He's only asking if he would be willing to throw away $40m in the process.

so you arent for BOTH fighters proving they are clean?

[pistol whip]

I think that is the 1st time I have read someone put that out there....and I'm sure that Manny's ego is just as big...he just hides it very well....

Exactly he's as big of an egomaniac as Floyd is he just doesn't flaunt it. He isn't hiding anything from anyone he just isn't the type of person who says "how high" when Floyd says "jump".
