Well said, Svang. I'm not that optimistic a fight between them will happen. I'd rather Mayweather is past his prime before Pacquiao does. Bitter much? I guess so.
Boxing: Pacquiao vs Margarito
- Thread starter King-eL
- Start date

Bonds and Clemens are accused by people testifying before congress. If they are lying, they go to prison for perjury. Mayweather or his minions run their mouth for sound bites with no consequences. Those are equal to you? Really?
You have already convicted PacMan of being a cheater; or did I misunderstanding the label "roid monkey." Can you show me his failed tests?
For claiming to not really be a Mayweather fan, you sure do hate PacMan.

All i'm saying is one has to wonder why pac man refused to have the blood tests and why the change of mind over something he refused to do before. how come 14 days was suddenly okay? did he learn something about how to hide it after further research and it was no longer a risk? As cartman once said, i ask questions!
The MLB didn't have organized tests. Boxing has and does.
Are you calling the congressional testimony BS? What is the motive?

And...I am not calling Clemons and Bonds dopers.....but you are calling PacMan one. The burden of proof is on you.
i'm not calling anyone a doper, i'm asking questions about the refusal on the blood tests. The man carries his power up weight classes in an unheard of fashion, it's a reasonable question.

pac didn't want to get bullied into doing something outside of what the athletic commisions asks.
but being the man that he is, he gave in for the fans' sake and for the sport of boxing sake. something that you can't say the same for the guy he's after.
all the evidence shows that floyd doesn't want to fight pac and at this point in both their careers, especially after the woopin he put on margarito, pac doesn't need floyd. floyd needs pacman. they can both retire today and pac will be considered above floyd in terms of all time greats
btw, that is an awesome t shirt. i'd love to get one

Well said, It comes down to, "Who are you to dictate".
I keep my fish at 7.5, then someone comes along and tells me, "No, keep your fish @ 6.5"... now I tell myself who the FAK are you to tell me what to do. Then after thinking about it...regardless how well they are doing @ 7.5, they can presumably benefit more @ 6.5. So as a hobbyist to please the general census of 6.5 believers I do it for the sake of the hobby.........
Mayweather basically opened his mouth way too early to fight Pac. This is one of those scenario where realizing the next day probably wasn't the best decision. He should have slept on it first. So what does he do, look for loop holes to back peddle. Come on now, if Manny is juicing something would have been discovered by now. Think about it. With so many hungry people looking for way to get rich quick, after the fight the ring is riddled w/blood. Someone looking to cash in can capitalize and get a blood sample to sell to any local media. Exposing Pac can lead to a handsome payout.
The argument of not agreeing to a blood test should not even be an issue anymore since what was asked was accepted. Mayweather however continues to look for excuses not to fight. So again, what does he do. Beat his chick. So assuming he goes to jail he has a valid reason not to fight.....lol....
Mayweather knows Pac can hurt him, same as I'm sure Mayweather will hurt Pac. I'm not taking anything away from Mayweather as he is a great fighter. But the difference from these two fighters is that Manny is willing die in that ring, Mayweather doesn't even want to get his pretty face smashed.
This is a treat that we all are seeing this accomplishment that Manny has put on in our era. He's a natural born fighter. Like other Athletes who just poses that natural ability. He may have the genes from his ancestors who were head hunters (still alive and strong in the Phillipines). He's got that warrior spirit. He may even practice Bruce Li's philosophy of Jeet Kun Do.
""style without style" as his style is unorthodox. You can see in the way he boxes with his speed, and to attack as your opponent attacks you. He will purposely put himself in a situation where his back is against the ropes to take a beat down, then as if a switch turns on where he'll give you the same punishment, however x 2...
