Is Manny Pacquiao compromise a Fair one? Why did he APPEASE to MAYWEATHER demands??

[V.WEBB]

so you'd rather he doesn't bother tryin to make a fight?

Where was this "spirit" when Floyd was trying to save and make the fight last year? Seriously.

lololol

Yall on ten today.

[TheSurgeonMDMPH]

cool then we are in agreement bro

IMO

fight week is a fine cutoff point judging by what we saw on 24/7

we saw Mosley having issues providing, not blood, but urine because of him cutting weight that week. It is something admittedly I overlooked and as a fan of testing NOT that Floyd wants it, I think it would be fair to have some cutoff point where the testing seemingly is fair yet takes into account what a professional fight goes through during fight week

now people will counter well Olympians do it as well

but when an amateur is subject to this chances are he is fighting year round, keeping his weight down to fight levels continuously, something professional fighters do not do for the most part

in all honesty if you are a fan of testing being changed I think some cutoff point is indeed fair not because of what a fighter says but what they indeed have to go through, which is different than most athletes in the moments leading up to their fight

I disagree. pbf nor pacq cut weight like that. pacq has a hard time staying heavy. And pbf is making the demand so *** how he will feel when they come knocking. No one needs to know when they wont be tested. Look at each sport closely and u will find it riddled with cheaters. This has to stop now. Especially in an already struggling sport.

At least a starting point has been established..it's better than the alternative where both guys stand pat n the fight has no hope of happening

Agreed. Let's see what happens.

for a monkey who accuses people of interpreting things/comments out of context, you sure can take things out of context just to nibble floyd's balls, hypocrite

[Left Hook Tua]

Who knows? But a fight of this magnitude shouldnt be left to hoping for honor and integrity. Pacq is surrounded by shady ppl and so is pbf.

if fighters slow down training a week b4 the fight then giving blood if necessary shouldnt be a big ***in deal, right? U just poked another hole in the logic of team pacq urself.

And ur closing statement has been confirmed by what expert?

like i said i don't give a **** about pac's teams reasons for the cutoff.

my whole point is for the alleged purpose of the testing (preventing and catching ped use) a 14 day cutoff is enough.


do random testing the 1st 6 weeks of camp.

even do one blood testing right at the cutoff date. schedule it to make sure there is no longer than 14 days in between blood tests.


6 weeks of random blood and urine testing , 1 blood and urine test 14 days out , 1 blood and urine test right after the fight.

that's enough.

to say it isn't is just ridiculous.

I think Based on their experience, the USADA should decide the cutoff date for this fight if it were to get made, as they did for the Mayweather/Mosley fight. I think that is a great compromise.

I know, right? I bet Floyd was probably thinking the SAME thing when he heard Manny now wants a 14-day cutoff.

[Eaner0919]

eaner , you have a lot of knowledge when it comes to fighters and training right?

is random testing for 6 weeks in training camp except for the final week and a blood test post fight enough?

honest opinion.

it's a 14 day cutoff.

they end camp and move to vegas (if it's in vegas) a week before the fight.

there is also a blood test post fight.

would that be sufficient enough for you , if you were a trainer of a fighter , to ensure no peds are being used?

read my post bro

I think fight week, 7 days, is fine

Naw, I have come to the realization that Team Pacquiao has compromised their precieved values to the public, and has now caved, and appeased to Mayweather Demands.

So now the question is how more far is Team Pacquiao willing to cave, appease, satisfy, and pacify to Mayweather's Demands.

Well, I'll say this, Horus, if pacquiao did compromise his perceived values, then it was done quite tongue in cheek. Listen to his reasoning now. He states that he agreed to the 14 day cut-off under the idea that he is a clean, honest player and wants to prove that.

He's always said this, true, but now it's tagged on as the reasoning for his now allowing the drug testing.

Interesting, but i guess someone had to bend. In the end, it's about wanting to fight and make money.
