    Why is it everyone says Manny on PEDS?

    They say hes off the juice because he doest have KO power. IMO once he stepped up it wasnt the power that got him knock downs, it was the speed and angles that killed.
    I think as hes gotten older hes lost a step and some speed, hence not as many KO's'
    Thoughts?

      KO power is the ******est way to judge PEDs. I'm pretty knowledgeable about steroids and I never saw anything that said Manny was on something. At least, not more so than any other boxer, incl Floyd. He was never really thick, nor was he bloated in the off season. He was a ripped, little dude. I think people just use that shytty argument because they can't think of much else to bash the guy. If you think Manny was on them, you must surely think Floyd was too because they both went through a similar decline in power, both had small but ripped physiques, etc.

        CBS featured him on 60 minutes at the height of the PEDs accusations, sort of a tribute for his popularity as a fighter and a public servant. He was co-featured with President Barack *****.

        I was expecting a question about the accusation. Nothing. So I assumed they're also of the general belief that Mayweather was too scared to fight him. Just like what Wilbon refers to Floyd as, a coward.

            Arum runs his fights like a Circus. He’s a legal genius with contracts and in-house matchups with marketing and longevity schemes. Pac vs Who, most of those guys most likely signed non disclosure agreements anyways... Pacquiao rose to fame before Advanced doping came along with the good ole post fight urine tests.

            Yet people cry about a boxer who voluntarily agrees 78 days out. Lol

            Lemieux vs GGG 20 days out testing

              I swear to god, I thought I was the only one who thought this way. Having extensive knowledge of PED's certainly helps (and it sounds like we both have that knowledge), but he was never any shadier than any other elite athlete when it comes to su****ion

                Ive done my fair share, I dunno how these guys can cycle off and on and not pin test after. Clomid will get you started again but its a tough way back. Plus add the testing if a fighter fights twice a year and I dont see it.

                  You see the pics. First, this man head small then, all of a sudden his head just grow? I mean, come on, man. This man went from a seven to an eight and a half in a fitted cap

                    His facial transformation says at all. Nobody hits puberty and suddenly grows a jaw line in their mid 20s.
