Comments Thread For: Marquez, Bradley Battle Over Rehydration Clause, Testing

[Rome-By-Ko]

Where were all these people when Manny was giving bul**** excuse after bul**** excuse as to why he didnt want to do drug testing, had so much people expressed such displeasure in pac`s decisions maybe jus maybe we would`ve had our mega fight. To me any athlete not jus fighter, who has a problem with drug testing is 99.99% dopin, jus like any driver who has a problem takin a breathalyzer is 99.99% DUI, they are dopin, plain & simple

They were right here,giving Manny ***** as well..I'm of the mind that you go along with the rules in the contract you signed..Which Cotto did and which Marquez did..There was not a rehydration clause in the contract,there was drug testing in the contract..End of story..

[Rome-By-Ko]

memo is a known liar and a scum bag...........i wouldn't be surprised if that fat **** was still pushing peds. what do you expect him to say? don't post to us his garbage (un reliable source) the guy has no clue whats in JMM part of the contract.


the usada and vada thing is not an issue.....marquez is saying if bradley wants ANY random drug testing (usada, vada) he must agree to that 10 pound re hydration clause...........and he also wants specific things with the test. he wants to be tested a certain way (both at the same time and so on) nether company (vada or usada) will be dictated on how they will run the blood test.......thats not gonna work, so thats a fail already........and bradley won't agree to the re hydration clause.....all of these things must be out of the way before we can even think about a blood test (according to jmm) I could be wrong, but it comes off as road blocks just to remove testing from the fight.........

Well there you have it Ladies and Gentleman thread..Right from the horses mouth..

Bradley has the upper hand here. You might feel that rehydrating 10 lbs or more is BS, but the rules only say that you have to make the weight at the weigh-in.

That there should be a rehydration clause for all fights for the benefit and health of the fighters is another matter, but as it is today, there is no rule.

So take the test JMM and STFU.

I don't actually think that's the issue at play here though. f it was just that, I'd be saying the same ****. He'd signed to be tested by USADA. That's all good. That's all fine it seems.

The problem seems to be that Bradley wants testing by VADA as well as USADA and that's what this is about. I think, but no one knows yet for sure, Marquez is happy to do USADA testing but if Bradley wants both, then Marquez is saying "Fine, I want a rehydration clause then".

[Rome-By-Ko]

What's not understandable is insisting on 2 agencies doing the testing. That's ******ed, what's the point? Is one of the 2 inept or crooked or what? If so, go with the other one. If both are, then screw the whole thing, it's not cheap, especially USADA.

Bradley wanted Vada Marquez wanted USADA..That's why they agree to be tested by both..There was a thread posted by this site on this matter..If Marquez signed a contract that stated both fighters would be tested by both,then that's his problem..

If both fighters feel's comfortable with one and the other they are both in the same boat..There is no issue...

Bradley always wanted testing done by Vada..Marquez wanted testing by USADA..So they meet in the middle,get tested by both..Now there's some kinda problem with that??Come on mang..

Quoted for truth. Bradley already said ages ago he wanted Vada specifically because Usada is sketchy as hell and has a history of being dodgy. Marquez should just accept the testing and ask bob arum to pay for it or Bradley. Its like 10-30k and these guys are making millions... Marques making issues out of this puts him in a bad spot light. Also Bob saying no Vada or Usada being used and instead some no name non-official crap is even worse. Bradley has the belt in the end and Marquez needs it.

So the truth comes out, all them kents saying for years that Manny was juicing when in fact he wasn't. Here comes JMM believing all the juice rumours, convinces himself he must juice to even the playing field and then KO's Manny cold with his illegal super powers.... Now JMM being exposed, dude will look tough as nails if there is no testing in this fight or will look old, slow and tiny if there is testing.

I really don't get where you get either Manny or Marquez is dirty..IMO they have to fail a test to be dirty..

[Curtiz]

Bradley is one dumb guy.

Why he talking about 143 when the actual weigh in question is 157lbs.

If you're a welterweight and you need more than 10lbs EXTRA ....something wrong.

[Weebler I]

Seriously?

You mean the last time he knocked someone cold with one punch?

Find one other time Pac has knocked someone out like he did to Hatton.

Find one other time Martinez has knocked out someone with one punch like he did to Williams.....on and on and on and on. They just land the perfect shot on their perfect night.

I honestly can't believe that after a 100 year history of seeing this time and time and time and time and time again, people still question it. It is the height of ignorance. We see it happen every ****ing weekend. Guys sometimes land perfect knockout shots.

It's not as if Marquez doesn't knock guys out. He's got a higher KO % than Pac. Unless you haven't seen much, he's been knocking guys out his whole career. Do you want me to show you evidence that he was able to stop Pac with one perfect shot? Well, like I said, show me one time that Pac has knocked someone cold like he did to Hatton, show me one time that Martinez has done it before. Marquez had shown in every fight the ability to hurt Pac more than Cotto, Morales, Barrera, Hatton, and most others and he'd nearly dropped him a couple of times.

Now, combine that with Marquez going for broke and really going for single shot haymakers and Pac being much more open offensively, and you get.....a one punch KO.

Marquez knocked Pac down in round three with one punch, just like he knocked Terdsak down in round one with one left uppercut, and Jandaeng with one left hook....But Pac got up easily and then ran into a perfect counter shot a couple of rounds later that kept him down. I don't understand the point? He knocked those guys down with single shots. If you land it perfectly, it'll knock you out.

That's how boxing works.

Nah, 36 rounds he never dropped Pacquiao. Then he develops this one-punch power to drop him twice in 6 rounds as well as ktfo-ing him. Coincidence he worked with Heredia? nah, something was up.

that's how I feel about it too.
