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

[The Big Dunn]

It was for that one fight for starters and that doesn't always occur to get the fight on (eg. Chavez Jr vs Sergio Martinez).

Secondly, why bring it up then after like 4 years later? Again, it's just 1 of many roadblocks presented by Floyd.

Third point, why does only Manny need to join TMT not other opponents?

Fourth point, Manny didn't ever request that of Floyd, so why Floyd doing that crappy request?

5th point, if people like you accept every single roadblock then I know why this fight never got made. Floyd fans should have pressured as well!

the thing is that it was just one excuse of many but unfortunately people like you can't read into that ..... sad stuff!

Another poster who blames everything manny does on someone else. You guys need to just give it up. Had he simply said this in 2009 all the other BS never happens.

INstead of just holding him accountable and leaving it at that you still try and blame floyd or bob or anyone else but manny. Time you woke up or grew up.

The man is just like SRL, ODH, floyd, Ali and every one of Bob's biggest fighters-behind the scenes they live foul. whether its womanizing, drugs, cross dressing, ********, prostitution, they ALL have a seedier side that Bob hides.

So from this day moving forward lets just accept this and move on.

bro, u wanted proof that manny has accepted random testing, i showed u, now its why didnt he agreed to it before? LMAO!! what more do u want? i remember all manny has to do is take the test and we have a fight. whats with all this questions now??

I didn't and never have asked for proof that Pacquiao "agreed" to more testing. The point is he agreed in principle to do it for one fight, not for any others. Now he's actually doing it but is making out it's for the good of the sport. It always was, but he never gave a stuff until now, making this latest statement BS. If he truly believed what he's saying now, he would've started doing sooner, even when it mattered most. Why is it so hard to admit?

You're too caught up I petty arguing to see the point of article. Pacquiao NOW believes random blood testing is "good for boxing". Four years after the issue was first raised, he has gone from agreeing in principle (but never taking part) to initiating "for the good of boxing". Do you not see the irony in this? Answer the natural leading question....."why is it good for boxing now and not before?"

which one petitioned the nsac to implement random testing?

That’s between the camps and the sanctioning bodies involved, or just between the camps. So I see this as no different than that. I know that Richard Shaefer and Bob Arum back in early 2010 had said “look, can we just petition the commission and see if they’ll be willing to do additional testing on our dime? I want to present that to them because we want everything au****ious of the athletic commission.� I said “definitely.� Any promoter can petition the commission for anything. It doesn’t mean they’ll say yes or they’ll say no. So they both had agreed to that. I guess Mr. Pacquiao had agreed to that but Mr. Mayweather said no, he wasn’t going to do that. And that’s fine, I take no offense at that. I don’t think anyone should. So if they had done that—of course it would have to have been a joint-petition—if they had done a joint-petition to the commission for additional drug testing where they’d cover the cost so we wouldn’t have any budget issues, we would have been happy to do that. We’re still happy to do that. Again, my understanding is Golden Boy, Top Rank, and Pacquiao were in agreement to do that, but Mr. Mayweather decided not to do that, and that’s his right.�
*************.com: Now why would Mayweather have not wanted that? Is it because he wanted strict USADA testing?
Keith Kizer: “I don’t know if he wanted USADA involved or he wanted to spearhead it himself and not be a joint situation, a joint spearhead. Again, neither of those things are necessarily a bad thing.�

for those that missed it or whats to watch it again.. enjoy and have fun spinning this. im out of here u people is hopeless LOL.

There is no spin...saying and doing are 2 different things. The way you prove words is with ACTION!!!!

This was not the first time he "said" he would do random testing, so this is nothing new. Now, if that was so true, why would his own spokesman say that it was incorrect? So what makes you think this time was more true than the last time he said it?

[The Big Dunn]

u sure changed your tune quick. before manny agreed to ost u were on here woofing about how all manny needs to do is take the test if he's clean. now ur trying to blame manny that its too late lmao! then ur even more mad now that i can sit here and say manny is a hypocrite, saying this doesnt bother me at all lol.. have a good day. #whyumadbro

probably best you go. its got to be a hard day for you. To your credit, you've ridden hard for Manny for a long time. You are a true believer. This couldn't have been good for you.

As much as I get on you about being a weed head, you aren't ******. You knew the minute you read this thread what the deal was. You can only pretend to not see the truth for so long.

When you assess manny's actions without bringing in anyone else, they look suspect. They are contradictory. They are self serving. They are the same things you point out that floyd does.

Its probably just time to admit they are more similar than different and that they both have gotten over on all of us.

always knew. just wasn't going be accused, slandered and bullied. Not sure how it is in your culture, but in the culture of men, their is a right way to approach something and a wrong way. Baseless accusations on a potential opponent is the wrong way. it's the womanly way.

It happened with Marquez and Bradley as well. Both had to sign with Top Rank to get the fight.



Umm, Floyd has a huge ego and wants to show everyone he is in charge.
Why wasn't it considered a "roadblock" when it came to Pac and his fights?



The fighters that he has been fighting work with Golden Boy, the same company he is working with. Not to mention, you know their past and you exactly why Floyd would act this way. Pac did declined the fight 2x, Floyd and Manny both have huge egos and Floyd wants to show Pac who is running the show.



How could he, Pac has never been the bigger draw. He did request 10 mil per lb overweight penalty, and Floyd accepted, so what about that "crappy request"?



Why is it that NOTHING that Pac has done is considered a roadblock, yet everything Floyd does is?



Pac has a huge list of excuses as well. Why no mention of those?

You just had to say "Floyd doesn't want to fight Manny because if he did, the fight would be made already"

Roadblocks are continuous and neverending for Floyd!!!
Manny has been coming forward and agreeing or at least trying to work it out in respect to Floyd's roadblocks while Floyd has been placing and CONTINUES TO after 4 years but for you, "it's about Floyd's ego"

You Floyd fans are stuck with the year 2009 and even then, Manny did accept random testing but they (Floyd and Manny) couldn't agree with the cutoffs ..... but what you need to remember is that 4 years have passed now. Floyd continued to put roadblocks for 4 years!!!

Floyd fans are stuck in a time warp!

[loui_ludwig]

See, whether it has a cut off date or full random, Pac did not refuse as claim by some haters.

Why it took 4 years? Because only 1 has ask for it and that certain boxer has leverage. We know Bradley said if He fights Pac, there would be OST. Well, was thete one? No, cuz he has no leverage. And Pac's last fight, he got KO that both side of fans thought he was dead. And the boxer who KO'ed him hired a conditioning coach who has a history with PEDs.

But i know its not good enough for you and you keep asking why, i reply, then u and why, i reply, and u ask why again, and so on.
