Which unfortunately this site is full of.Pacman really might have been on PEDS back then. he moved up weight classes and completely beat guys up like margarito. Then refused to be tested no matter what. After he started being tested, he didnt look as strong anymore and hasnt since.
Only a fanboy would think thats not su****iousComment

al haymon sellout
Paula got his face kicked in so many times...Cotto Khan and porter whooped him bad...if Paula wasn't carefully built up with those bum fighters from Broadway boxing he would never made it out of Ny. Now he's fighting this O'Connor guy that no one has ever heard of...smh...I lost all respect for him when he sold his soul to al haymon, the same guy he blasted on Showtime networkComment

I'll post this for you too...If you don't think the injury existed, then why request powerful pain-killing injections in the shoulder before the fight?
Why have shoulder surgery after the fight?
Quite apart from sparring partners, forms, the fighter's word etc...these two alone would overwhelmingly point to the existence of an injury. You really believe otherwise?
Travis Tygart, the CEO of USADA, told the New York Daily News that Pacquiaos camp let the boxer down failing to disclose his shoulder injury. While his organization approved the medications, he says USADA was never advised that Pacquiao was using them to treat a shoulder injury."We had no medical information, no MRIs, no documents," said Travis Tygart, who heads USADA. "It was not an anti-doping issue. The real question is why his camp checked 'no' on the disclosure.
According to NSAC, they even interviewed Pacquiao's doctors and they didn't say anything about an injury and said he would be fine without an injection.
Bennett told New York Newsday:
"It's been stated that the NSAC had been advised of Manny's shoulder injury. That's totally incorrect. It was said we were informed by USADA, and USADA never informed us. With the number of years Top Rank has been in business, they know that, if they want to inform us of the situation, they should be telling us. They shouldn't be telling USADA to tell us. That's just unacceptable. We interviewed the physicians representing Manny, and they advised us his health and safety would not be at risk if he fought without the injection."
An HBO spokesman also told the paper - "Nobody informed us of any shoulder injury to Manny Pacquiao during his training camp."

He TKO'd a shot, zombie De La Hoya, and never put him down or anything. He just beat on a zombie until the zombie finally had enough.
Hatton wasn't exactly iron-chinned at that point. He was still the best fighter in the division, but he was perfect for Pac and ate a perfect shot. Cotto never had a particularly good chin and ate perfect shots as well.
Mosley was pretty far gone.
Rios has a great chin. Bradley is tough as hell, he's not easy to put down. Plus those fights happened 3-6 years after all these other fights you mentioned. Pac was clearly declining well before them. He didn't look invincible in one fight, get tested in the next, and suddenly look different. There was a very obvious trend where he was declining from fight to fight, well before he was tested. Even after he was tested he was hurting Bradley multiple times and dropping Chris Algieri 4 times.
He almost certainly cheated, but your argument here is a bad one.Comment

Some of you here should just say "I love Mayweather and hate Pacquiao. Since my idol says Pac is a cheater, I say Pac is a cheater" and be done with it. 'Cause in the end, that's what it all comes down to no matter how much you try to rationalize it.
I myself think that, after all this time, both dudes might have used something to help out their performance. I do not leave out that possibility. We have Pac refusing testing all the way up to the fight during the early negotiations and we have Floyd with supposed 3 failed tests that his lawyers refused to disclose and instead opted for an out-of-court settlement during trials vs. Pac. Both sound like red flags to me, don't you think?Last edited by Ruthless One; 05-15-2015, 03:31 PM.Comment
