Comments Thread For: Jean Pascal: I'll Take The Test, Why Can't Hopkins?

[LeadUppercut]

I just don't know why pascal didn't negotiate this kind of testing BEFORE the fight if he felt so concerned about it??.....

It was really obvious that pascal had someone bring it up in press coference just to try and have an edge on bernard.....

Bernard's boxing IQ is what won him the first fight. He has always been a 12 round fighter and never had problems with stamina. He started late and has been beating younger guys his whole career.

The new posters are owning this thread, good stuff man.

Common-sense prevails.

Hopkins wasn't the first fighter in history to win "World titles" in 8 "Weight Classes"

Hopkins didn't absoloutley destroy a man 15 lbs. his senior on fight night recently.

Hopkins hasn't even stopped anyone since De La Hoya (8 years ago?), and that's just cuz De la Hoya was too small and Hopkins timed him Beautifully.

Seperate and NOT equal.

Yeah, and you also believe that he is a one-dimensional fighter, who is just cherry-picking his opponents...who is carefully matched by Arum with past-their-prime fighters (De la HOya, Cotto, Margarito, Mosley) and a boxer who loves catchweights, etc. all for his advantage.

Now which is which really? PEDs/HGH/Steroids? or the ones I mentioned above?

Or probably, you just love to criticize the person who destroyed the ones you hoped would destroy him.

" believe " ?

What is there to believe? The facts are black and white.

Not one single Pacquiao opponent since Marquez has been in his prime, not one single opponent since Marquez has been on top of his game, and every single opponent since Marquez has been at a disadvantage.

There is no " believe ", the facts are as clear as day.

And, who knows what the hell Pac is taking? coz, he will not take the test.

Thanks for taking this one.

There is a big difference for 1 Pac agreed to the test in the contract then he backed out, but in B-Hop case the contracts have all ready been sign why should he take a test when its not in the contract, they have to amend the contract. this is not the same as in Pac case ******

Good post. It's all business and inorder to have Bhop take the tests now, they have to renegotiate the contract. Pascal already said himself in this article that he knows that Bhop is not on anything. Roach said Pac would agree to any tests Mayweather wanted and then they backed out of it. Different situation considering that Floyd had the tests already in the contract from the beginning.

So Going by your logic, Pacquiao beat all of his opponents past his prime.

Easy work for Floyd

So why do Floyd need OST?

If Hopkins wants to take the test , he will take it. But Hopkins wants to fight. He could care less about Pascal BS.

[LMFAO]

Does anyone in their right mind put it past ANYONE to NOT take steroids to win anymore?

At least Floyd wants to test himself and his opponent to prove they are clean.

I'm not buying that Hopkins won't have anything helping him in this most important fight to get that glory. Especially at his age.

If people complain about Pac not wanting to test..they should also wonder why Hopkins at this age going into this fight won't submit to a simple blood test. Hopkins is friends with an admitted cheater.

Does anyone think Hopkins doesn't know the benefits PED's would provide him to win? Especially since Pac is getting away with it?
