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

[richardt]

[QUO=richardt;13873472]Well then lets get him to detail his stance and that takes a deeper interview and even then haters will think he is lying and who knows if he is being sincere or not but that is just it...WHO KNOWS?! No one but him. "It's good for Boxing" could have been a change of heart or mind...you know that is a human trait, right? Anyone here could have had a stern belief in something and then change their heart and mind when presented with evidence and or an experience that changed them or an observation or time passed and they grew or had to make changes for whatever reason...it happens! So what he said marries up the to the realities I have seen with everyone in my life. Nothing new.

Usually a "change of heart" is brought about by experience or an event in life. That is very plausible indeed. Do you honestly believe Mayweather woke up one morning and thought: "You know what, I'm going to change boxing by demanding Pacquiao and I undergo olympic style testing"? That it was an epiphany? That he decided that boxing was the more important than himself? I don't. Look it's not a stretch to see that getting knocked cold finally made Pacquiao wise up. The good of boxing line is the one that's hard to swallow.[/QUOTE] First, he said that Pac could not be the way he is naturally and then demanded tests. That is conclusive. And I never said that Pac getting knocked cold wasn't an option. See my list. But we don't know exactly what motivated Pac to change his mind, it is speculation.

Hey Mama Egg, If the Cat is the GOAT, why the
Last Minute Test Smoke Screen demand?

And what Pacduckiao could not oblige please keep making excuses. Wow people praising Pacduckiao for finally stepping up and taking the test because he got sparked. And now all of you Pacfarts are crying about Marquez. How about all these years he did not do testing.

[richardt]

this post reads like you are Manny's publicist. Basically you create 3 or 4 "plausible but not likely or possible reasons" for why manny flip flopped, line them up next to the most logical reason, and then claim because you don't know for sure which one it is that they are all equally valid or equally invalid. Is getting wet the only way you know its raining outside?

I can prove in a court of law when it rains whether I am there or not, wet or not. You cannot prove in a court of Law what motivated Pac unless you have the results of a lie detector test because you can only SPECULATE what motivated Pac. There are a number of logical choices but you do not know what motivated him. It is that simple!

I see all the flowmos LOVE for pac is in full effect in here. Wow just wow! All the flowmos in one bag. 54 pages of whining! Says it all.

They are so passionate about pac that they don't want him fighting in the ring with Floyd. Jeeez lol

[Supreme Being]

WOW;;;;;54 pages!!! PACMAN vs FLOYD 2014

I'll back up Pac in this

Most of the boxing experts & pros believe it was Floyd who put a road block to the fight. And as a fight fan, I can agree.

Why now you ask? To fully understand the answer, you have to go back at that time. Pacman was in charge, no way he was going to bend a knee to Floyd. Don't forget OSDT wasn't heard of until Floyd mentioned it so it was ridiculous at that time. So if you understand that part, it'll get a little easier for you Floyd folks.

Eventually Pac agreed, and then Floyd put money as an issue. What more can I say.

Again I'm a Floyd fan, he's the pound 4 pound kingpin. But I have to side with the Pacnuts in this debate.

[WholeSoul75]

i feel he's trying to set himself up to fight floyd..

- he wants to box.

[ADP02]

You could've said the same seeing the Pac was the one that declined the fight both times it was offered to him.



Really? Roadblocks huh? I will cut and paste just a few of the excuses "roadblocks" that Pac has:

1. Pac's team want to make JMM-Pac IV fight
2. Cut needs 8 months to heal
3. Arum said Floyd going to jail so can't make fight
4. May 5th fight will be reserved for JMM-Pac IV fight
**(FMJ sentence pushed)**
5. Arum says May 5th too soon for cut to heal
6. Need time to build large stadium
7. Fight should be in Dubai or Dallas not Vegas
8. Floyd NEEDS to personally call me -Bob Arum
9. Arum is not sure why Schaffer keeps calling him, so Arum won't return call
10. Pac is running for president and fighting Floyd would not be good press because of Floyd's disrespectful ways.
11. Blood testing weakens Pac
12. Pac is afraid of needles
13. Maywaether may not get a licensed by the boxing commision, so we can't negotiate fight
14. Arum: "We still don't know who to talk to on Mayweather's side"!!!
15. Bob Arum doesn't trust USADA offcial testing.




Doesn't seem like "coming forward" to me!

Do you really believe all that nonesense that you wrote? The only thing that is a fact is that Floyd and Manny didn't agree to cutoff dates back in 2009/early 2010 but BOTH agreed to random testing.

Then later on, you bring up the possibility of a fight just prior to Floyd going to jail and bringing up excuses BUT either you don't know or pretending to not know but all that had been quashed by Manny, Arum and Floyd.

How?

- Manny came out saying that he was willing and ready to fight in May instead of June. He also put it out on his official website.

- Arum also came out and said "we can do it in May"

- Floyd said "I WANT ALL PPV MONEY or NO FIGHT!!!!"

To all of you Haters, Guess what?

[AnKhang]

Haters gonna hate. They been asking Pac to take the damn test and now that he does, they still find something to complain about. I mean should Pac not take the test now? Make up your mind girls.
