Manny Pacquiao : Are We Asking the Right Questions?

[Gino Ros]

Is Manny Pacquiao using some kind of banned substance?
By Jeff Stoyanoff

Pacquiao should have to prove it, but so should everyone.

i agree with this. there are drugs in every sport and i think there are drugs in boxing too. all fighters should be tested not just manny.

floyd doesn't want to fight manny but that is another issue. i thought that we should have better testing in boxing after toney , vargas, mayorga and all those guys got caught and that was before the floyd and manny negotion.

in 1990 vinnie pazienza was fighting at 140 and in 1993 he was fighting at 168 and looking more buff with no body fat.

boxing need better drug testing.

No, in the end the commission woke up. These fighters put their lives on the line. No one wants to wait another 20 years for the commission to get it right. They are irrelevant when BOTH fighters agree to do it.

so floyd has to wake up the commission again by going to them with evidence of how rampant PEDs are in boxing and positing a solution (ie OST). the writer of the article wants something done across the board, not just for floyd fights.

I think hes on something. It would be nice to see the comissions step up.

That's great! Do think it is banned, or is he just on something?....

floyd cant control the commission but he can control his own fights. so i have no problem with him making condition for his fight.

just like manny cant control the commission but he can control his own fights.

Floyd has already awoken the commission. You think they don't read the papers? What did they do? have a meeting where they decided taking blood is dangerous . Look, now is not the time for red tape. Like I said, it starts with small steps.

I'm not asking for floyd to control the commission. I'm asking him to put his money where his mouth is and try and help the sport we all love and find a way to try and eliminate PEDs in boxing. floyd can't do it by himself so he must appeal to the commissions.

floyd didn't do ****. let's see floyd at the hearing. let's see floyd use his money and clout to bring in the best PED experts to give their testimony. They sent in the president of the USADA to the commission instead of real scientists with real expertise.

for me, that's what "awakening" means.

[Ragnar Lothbrok]

of course we are asking the right question. manny has answered those question by passing all the test his sport's ruling bodies have required.


ive never seen a athlete in any sport in any time period dictate to another athlete/opponent what test he should take & overrule the sport's ruling bodies tests & requirement.

never.

can you imagine micheal jordan asking charles barkley or magic johnson to take a test not required by the nba, & if they dont, he wont play them in the nba finals?

its utterly ridiculous. just go across the board in all sport. when has this ever happened in professional sports? a athlete dictating to another athlete what test to take?

its hypocritical & cowardly bigotry.

Actually, Floyd did plenty. What are we discussing right now again? Oh, did we just have a fight in the US with USADA on board for the first time?

Everyone knows this is the ***** Mayweathers fault.. and anyone with a IQ over 10 should know this..

he did something for himself. let's see him do something for the rest of the sport.
