Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: I'm Fine With Random Testing, It's Good For Boxing

wait so does this article prove that Manny ducked Floyd or..?

I will never forget that 4 years ago, Pac's fans tried to convince everyone that ADDITIONAL TESTING WAS NOT NEEDED AND BAD FOR THE SPORT.

Im still not over the ******ity of it all.

I thought that bringing in USADA (the additional test) was ******. When has USADA actually caught a cheater? VADA still catches cheaters. VADA has been in boxing since the golden days of boxing. No body complained until Floyd. I hate to admit it but Floyd got scared.

Good that he has finally seen sense but why now? This is a slap in the face to boxing fans because for years we heard how it was supposedly shocking for Floyd to ask for OSDT etc and Pacs team continued to make a mockery of it all and now just like that he comes out and says what he should have been saying originally to the demand?

I like Pacquiao as a fighter but he should be publicly criticized for the way he has conducted himself with the whole testing issue just like Ward needs to be

Before you ask, look back at history. Pac was in charge not Floyd. Floyd bringing up USADA was the first time any boxer did that. Ask then, why now? Why did Floyd bring that up, and why should Pac bend down on his knees to Floyd during that time.

Second, look back at history II. You'll see Pac eventually gave way to the OSDT (USADA), but then Floyd brought up money issues.

Third, ask yourself ---> Do you get it now?

I don't remember Manny asking Floyd to jump back into Top Rank. Manny don't ask any fighters to join Top Rank. That's old man Bob. Bob's a fool. Floyd is known as a villian because he painted that picture for us through actions, the same can be said with Pac as the good guy. Tough reality, but that's what it is. I still love my boy Floyd though.

Still you're missing the big picture. It's alright to recruit boxers into the stable. But WTF is Floyd trying to do by recruiting a boxer like Pacman who's supposed to be his opponent & who already has his own promotion? Go Figure??!!

The big picture is that Bob wouldn't let Manny fight Marquez, Mosley etc unless they signed to Top Rank, perfectly fine.

Floyd jokingly or seriously wants Manny to sign to Mayweather Promotions in order to get the fight, he's demonized.

Manny wins 2 titles at catchweights, legendary fighter.

Floyd unifies at a catchweight, he's a fraud.

I'm done with this ignorance, believe what you want.

Mayweather did joke about it, but you take it too seriously. Yeah Marquez & Mosley joined, that's their problem, which is what you stated is fine.

Manny 2 catchweight against Floyd's 2 catchweight were equal in my eyes.

Manny has had 3 catch weight fights, Floyd only 1.

What you said made no sense whatsoever.

1. The negotiations back then didnt hinge on whether USADA or VADA would doing the testing.

2. VADA wasnt testing any boxers fighting in Vegas. NSAC was. So I dont even know where you are going with VADA being there since the golden days.

3. USADA test all kinds of sports and athletes. You heard of the Olympics? They just caught the sprinter Gay from Jamaica over the summer. What are you even talking about? You aint get any of your facts straight on this issue. For the record, I could care less if its VADA or USADA or NSAC that does the extra testing. As long as its done.

4. It is untrue that boxers have never complained about PED use before Floyd. Tyson and Bowe did YEARS BEFORE. Guess what, their opponents agreed to take tests without their fans throwing a hissy fit. But even if that wasnt so, being the first to do a GOOD THING, is still DOING A GOOD THING.

5. You can say Floyd was scared, another can say he simply didnt want to face a cheater, another can say Floyd is playing mind games. I dont know Floyd personally, neither do you, and I could care less to know the reasons why he does what he does.

However, none of this changes the fact that additional testing was needed in the sport of boxing. Proven by the fact that today even Manny is admitting it.

Couldn't of said it better myself. I don't think Floydies will get the big picture, they are still hung up on the 1st negotiation...they can't see past it.

This is getting absolutely ridiculous, people need to learn to let go and move on. I would rather someone come around to something eventually than never, regardless of what you feel about Floyd or Manny, these are the two biggest draws in boxing. They are both now testing, the real discussion here now should be why isn't everyone else. It's really that simple..let's stop acting like casual fans and really address the real topic to be discussed here and that's now that the two biggest paid stars of the sport are being tested should this be enforced on everyone else.

Y'all are so full of it. You say this now but you've been blaming Floyd the whole time. STFU with your bs
