"On May 20, 2012, a rumor filtered through the drug-testing community that Mayweather had tested positive on three occasions for an illegal performance-enhancing drug.

More specifically, it was rumored that Mayweather’s “A” sample had tested positive on three occasions and, after each positive test, USADA had found exceptional circumstances in the form of inadvertent use and gave Floyd a waiver. This waiver, according to the rumor, negated the need for a test of Floyd’s “B” sample. And because the “B” sample was never tested, a loophole in USADA’s contract with Mayweather and Golden Boy allowed the testing to proceed without the positive “A” sample results being reported to Mayweather’s opponent or the Nevada State Athletic Commission (which had jurisdiction over the fights).

In late-May, Pacquiao’s attorneys heard the rumor. On June 4, 2012, they served document demands and subpoenas on Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions, Golden Boy and USADA calling for the production of all documents that related to PED testing of Mayweather for the Shane Mosley, Victor Ortiz and Miguel Cotto fights.

The documents were not produced. There was a delay in the proceedings while Floyd spent nine weeks in the Clark County Detention Center after pleading guilty to charges of domestic violence and harassment. Upon his release from jail on August 2nd, settlement talks heated up.

On September 25, 2012, a stipulation of settlement ending the defamation case was filed with the court. The parties agreed that the terms of settlement would be kept confidential. Prior to the agreement being signed, two sources with detailed knowledge of the proceedings told this writer that Mayweather’s initial monetary settlement offer was “substantially more” than Pacquiao’s attorneys had expected it would be and an agreement in principle was reached soon afterward.

As part of the settlement, the Mayweathers and Mayweather Promotions issued a statement that read: “Floyd Mayweather Jr., Floyd Mayweather Sr., Roger Mayweather and Mayweather Promotions wish to make it clear that they never intended to claim that Manny Pacquiao has used or is using any performance-enhancing drugs nor are they aware of any evidence that Manny Pacquiao has used performance-enhancing drugs. Manny Pacquiao is a great champion and no one should construe any of our prior remarks as claiming that Manny Pacquiao has used performance-enhancing drugs.”

Floyd should have sued someone if this isn't true.

Floyd needs dem Ariza shakes in 2015 more than Manny did in 2009 doe.

How many boxers from TMT promotions have been popped alone? That gym reeks of steroids and performance enhancement adulterants.

This is true. There have been some who got caught out of that camp but wasn't Mayweather.

[GRUSTLER]

Pacquiao's fans are scrambling hard.

"Floyd got caught 3 times roiding"

"Floyd beat his baby mother"

"Floyd cheated Marquez on the scales

"Floyd uses steroids in his hands"

All of this because Pacquiao FINALLY came to his senses about showing he is a clean fighter. Hey PAC ASSES, do you realize we could have been watching perhaps a 3rd fight between them if it wasn't for Pacquiao getting weak by giving blood because he felt he was the smaller man? Manny ran from the fight when it was 50/50 and both were primed because of 14 days blood and urine testing before the fight but yet Floyd was/is dirty? You guys are...

I love the way Manny is forcing Floyd to fight, he is on his back for sure. Manny Pacquiao can have lost his killer instinct but damn HIS HUGE BALLS ARE STILL THERE !!!!!!!!
