Manny Pacquiao: 'I Have Never Used Anabolic Steroids'

[QADASHBANYAH1]

It is clear that this was either translated and extra words were added on the translation or HE just didn't say thing and is not a direct quote from him....

I mean he is quoted as saying " synthetic growth hormone"

I mean how long do you think it would take him to say something like that?

Ahhh......... syn ahh............ synthe ahh............ synthetic ahh.......... gro ahh......... grow ahh...... growth...

I swear I just was thinking that. LOL This isnt manny talking, he is having someone soup the words up for him, or we will hear in a day or two that this was not even him.



If he did say this **** then hes looking even more suspect. The average joe doesnt know what human growth hormones are. Not saying he couldnt have learned, because after all he is going to court, so he would be prepped by his lawyers.


But you know whats funny is IMO, I THINK HES USING, BUT HE DOESNT KNOW IT. I DONT THINK HES A CHEATER, I think those around him may be slipping something in. This is once again my opinion.


ALEX ARIZA Really did the damage with that "manny doesnt know what he takes" quote. That did more damage IMO than floyd or floyd senior, or mallinaggi, or cotto, or berto, or teddy, or tim smith IMO.

just my two cents.

If a dude has to eat that much to maintain his weight, and is still able to hurt much bigger guys/ take their punches, then something ain't right. All I'm sayin'. I agree with Mathed, in that Pacquiao is a lot smarter then people think. Thing is, Pacquiao is real good at playing the "Dumb guy" role.

I noticed alot of foreigners try and play the dumb guy when the heat is on them, they try and pretend to be dumb and like they dont understand english.

haha, this guy

yesir! what's good?

[QADASHBANYAH1]

if i say, i work in a bank and i cheat on my wife. does it mean am robbing that bank?

and i say, if i work for an american business firm does it mean am not being loyal with my japanese girl (who knows floyd and not pac)?

But most people if they could get away would rob a bank, and with the laxed standards of drug testing, people could and do take that chance, so your analogy while I get what you are saying is still a little off.


Most people wouldnt rob a bank, because they fear what is about to happen to them. MAJOR JAIL TIME.

NOW THINK ABOUT ROBBING A BANK BACK IN THE EARLY 1800'S The **** was done all the time, no deterrents really. No cameras etc. And only a 6 shooter would be yoru problem for the most part.

The problem with drug testing is that its archaic.

I mean years ago shane was caught cheating and nothing about the testing has changed one iota!!!!! Now thats sad as hell. I magine robbing your so called bank and then finding out that no extra precautions were set up to deter you from doing it again... The same teller, no cameras etc.

[BuckToothed]

haha, so thats your excuse?

Yes, it happens... Guys would cheat on their wives but won't take a penny from an open safe. The divorce rate backs up that claim that marriage is not what it used to be.

That doesn't only apply to foreigners.

[Pacquiao'd]

yesir! what's good?

shavin up and making sure i look good so more asian chics come up to me. then i will pop the question on them

[IMDAZED]

Perfect example,

I had some mixed emotions watching that. During the first few minutes I was enjoying listening to Pacquiao. He really connects with people and is genuine. His smile is true. But it gets really hard to watch (and listen to) him when the testing comes up. I feel bad for him--It's gotta suck to go through something like this and it does take away from the fact that with or without the PEDS, he's still a very special fighter. But man, his answers, body language, just everything...damning. There may be a few people on here who want him to be on PEDs or just hate him for whatever reason but in spite of my passion for the issue, I really wish he wasn't. And it saddens me to have to watch something like this which confirms that it is more than just possible.

[jrosales13]

Yea IMDAZED, I agree I even said this months ago when the first time I heard Pac saying he didn't know what it was.

How does he know he's never used if he doesn't even know what it looks like?

Yeah, kinda silly. I find it hard to believe he doesn't know what a steroid looks like. He's been a professional fighter for 15 years and trains out of Hollywood. He doth protest too much. Whatever. The crazy thing is that I give him a good shot to defeat Floyd. More than anything, it's killing me that this has become such a large issue. It shouldn't have been any bigger than his own clauses and we should have already seen the fight by now. I'm still hopeful.

LOL at Pac not knowing what steroids are...

3rd World Countries dont talk much about Steroids because theres more things to worry about.

But, come on bro he is a boxer dude. His trainer is Freddie Roach who use to train James Toney. And, Toney got busted twice for steroid use. I am pretty sure Pac heard about this. He trains at the Wild Card Gym in LA. LA own Shane Mosley admiting of using steroids against one of Pac opponent Oscar De la Hoya. You telling me Pac did not know about this? That is 2 big time fighters around his weight in his own sport. How can he not know about steroids? He has thrown out the first pitch in SF Giants stadium (I think the official name AT&T Park but I might be wrong). The biggest player in the Giants history is Barry Bonds. Who was the main reason for Balco scandal. I am pretty sure he heard about this.

Another thing for him to say that he don't know what steroids are. And, for you to think that he might not know. It might not look good on him. Cuz as an athlete you should know what steroids are. What if, one of his many yes man has come up to him and said, hey champ I have some great vitamins I could inject you with. Some B12, and he goes for it thinking that they are vitamins cuz 'he does not know what steroids are' and it turns out to be steroids? You see my point. For him to say he does not know what steroids are. Show's irresponsible he is as an athlete. And, might question has he unkowningly taken steroids cuz he don't know what they are.

And, 3rd World Countries argument is not an excuse. My parents are from a 3rd World Country (Guatemala). In the last couple of months there have been hundreds of kids dying from starvation. You have gangs killing cops and harrassing and taxing innocent people. You the drug cartlel rampet there. And, all my cousins and uncles worry about all that. And, yet they still know what steroids are.

Pacquaio is my favorite fighter right now. I am a Pacman fan. But, come on bro lets be real here. He has to know what steroids are, he has to. He obviously knows they are bad. For him to come out this quick and make it known he not ever used steroids.

Check out your bold statement and my bold statement....

If you check out the link pages 4 and 5 is where I stated these 2 quotes... Once again you copycatter JK

That is why I find it funny how somehow I worship Pacquaio
