Well to be honest there is 1 person here that talks about Pacquiao and drugs in almost every topic that doesn't even concern the guy. Take the Ricky Hatton thread, part of it turn into another Pacquiao and drugs thread.

That's an old excuse, it's no longer operative. That was the excuse after he's scared of needles and before he gets weakened by blood tests. Right now he didn't take the test because of some Phillipino pride thing that you wouldn't understand because you're not Phillipino.Quote:

I'm half filipino and I'll tell you this. Filipinos are fucking wankers. They're all 3 foot tall, got little Manny beards, carry knives, smoke cheap Malboros and think they're Charles Bronson. One of them even told my "Americano" dad that he needed to start smoking his cigarettes with "style". On the other hand they're generous, loyal and if even though they act hard are really just little pussies. Plus their women treat me like a celebrity everytime my half white ass goes there. But they're still fucking wankers.
Is that on topic?Quote:

Okay genius, explain to me about drug testing you apparently know so much. It's shocking to me how many people on this site like yourself know NOTHING of the science behind what is being discussed yet claim to be an authority. So continue with the name calling but please educate me on how:Quote:

Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS/MS)
Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS)
Are inferior to blood testing for daily drug testing? Do you think that Manny is using HGH? which anyone in a gym with an IQ over 60 would tell you that it burns fat like crazy and probably not the best substance for someone trying to put weight on. The question at hand is Steroids, which could NEVER get by daily urine tests using the above testing. The test can even be used to detect masking agents. Urine spectrum analysis results could be saved then compared to samples taken over the last 30 days. Aren't you bright enough to realize that masking agents can fool blood tests too? It's only by comparing long term sample and screening for masking agents specifically can conclusions be drawn. By taking a sample 30 days prior (both blood and urine) taking urine during the last 30 days and a blood (and urine) test right after should be fine by anyone's standards (except PBF and you). Now please explain how volunteering for this testing somehow proves Manny is cheating? Please respond and prove how little you know about anything....
It's because when Floyd was able to dictate the terms of the fight like in his fight with Juan Marquez, they used the eight ounce gloves.Quote:

Floyd dictating the terms? Wait a minute. It is Pac and his team who asked for different things which Floyd agreed to: 50/50 split, date, gloves, $10,000,000 fine for weight, etc. Floyd just asked for a blood test which he was willing to take as well.
So no, it is not Floyd dictating terms, it's the other way around. Pac and his team asked for all kinds of things, Floyd asked for one and all kind of silly contradicting excuses were heard from Pac and his team and new excuses keep coming out.
You misunderstood my statement. I was referring to the Mayweather-Marquez fight in there. Do you know who has a say in the size of the gloves that they used in that fight? Give me a guess. Why did they use the eight ounce gloves ? If Floyd did not have a problem with that glove size then, why would his fight with Pacquiao be any different?Quote:

Manny's choice of date is very limited because of his political ambition in the Philippines. It isn't like Floyd lost some advantage in agreeing on that date.
Floyd agreeing to that $ 10,000,000 shouldn't be a big deal because he has no problem staying within that weight limit. He was within that limit in his last fight. And I don't think they would place this in the contract just for Floyd (his team isn't that stupid). Didn't you think that Manny will also pay that amount if he also goes above that weight?
And you make it appear that Floyd's only demand was the blood test. Didn't they consider having the fight in Dallas and team Pacquiao was ready to go on a flight to Texas? And who refused that. Didn't Floyd want the fight to be in Vegas? This hasn't gained too much attention because IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE A BIG DEAL, JUST LIKE THE OTHER DEALS THAT WERE MENTIONED ABOVE. Did you see any disadvantage on Floyd's part by him agreeing to those terms? The bood test is a different story and is debatable.
Okey, we are going to be reprimanded again for beating a dead horse.
The people who do know about drug testing like the head of the USADA, who's forgotten more than you and me put together know about testing, says it's quite possible Manny is a juicer and that scheduled as opposed to random testing is a total waste of time. There are various links to his interviews in the previous threads on this. I'm going to go with the guy who knows what he's talking about on this one.Quote:

What is all this nonsense about not allowing Floyd to dictate terms? So says the Manny camp that negotiates a WW title fight at a catchweight of 145 pounds? All it is is a series of random tests in the preparation stages of a fight, it is absurd to think it would have any detrimental affect upon Manny's performance in the ring. To not accept that Manny has behaved suspiciously is ridiculous and downright stupid. And to suggest that Floyd not be the one to dictate terms is the height of hypocrisy. Go away and die you horrid little people. I hate you! :mad:
This shit is boring me and seriously pissing me off. I hope Manny Pac either gets knocked out this weekend or gets mutiliated in a giant sausage mince grinder at some point in the near future. They can turn all his fans into sausages too and use to them to solve world hunger. It would stop them talking nonsense anyway.... but knowing these muppets we would probably have swarms of sausages wriggling around pleading "leave Manny alone. He's an ATG! He's more than a sausage. Blah. Blah. Blah." I would just stamp on them all and have bits of sausage scattered up the walls in a horrid greasy mess! :mad:
I wasn't trying to be rascist. Believe it or not, what I was trying to get at was that I believe the negotiations failed because of Pacquiao's machismo. He really was a wanker about this.
I've found it's almost impossible to have a logical argument let alone negotiate with a Filipino once they feel you have "disrepected" them and believe me that isn't hard to do. I know this for a fact because I'm half Filipino (Ifugao blood) half Australian, most of my extended family has moved here (from Sablan, a small town in Benguet Province about a 25 minute jeepney ride from Baguiao City) and I've been there myself. Now if you feel this is racist go and ask twenty Filipino Manny Pacquiao fans why the negotiations failed and see if you still have a full head of hair afterwards.
Okay, quick question. What is this A-Side meth called in Flip? In some parts of the boxing world they are saying that Pacquiao is on this special drug that is only produced in the Phillipines. This drug supposedly can make you shrug off .38 and .45 caliber bullets on the battlefield of war and keep on moving forward. And since Pacquiao has posession of this drug he has become almost like superman in the boxing ring, just keeps on coming forward and taking some hard shots.Quote:

Hey I'm just going on what's being said.
No worries. I've heard it's a potent cocktail of ginebra, San Miguel beer, a left fistful of rice and a pinch of pure fighting cock shit. Its administered intravenously and can only be detected in semen. Team Mayweather has therefore just announced that any future fight with Manny Pacquiao will only go ahead if Michael Koncz agrees to undergoe random Olympic style oral swab tests.
Still? Really? This topic is still alive? Wow. You guys are just wasting your time. I've had my say on this and that should be it. Whatever their respective reasons are, WE SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW why this fight never really materialized. It is more than the PEDS. It is more than the common man who sits in front of his computer, chatting, talking like crazy expressing their OWN opinions on this issue which is fed by what the media and both Mayweather and Pacquiaos side allow us to read and know! Don't you guys get it? This fight will happen if it happens. Sit back and relax and enjoy the rest of the boxing year. I've heard all sorts of arguments from both sides and I was so dissapointed with Manny. But I will not offer my time arguing over this for eternity.
pacman (the dog) on steroids ?

Manny Pacquiao is a man of many talents - Page 2 - ESPN
seriously though, Pacquiao/Clottey is just 2 days away and yet there really isn't much of a buzz for the fight :-\

It's a crock of shit and no sensible person should be paying for this garbage after all that has happened.
Absolutely, we agree the USADA is a good testing agency. The USADA refers to what Floyd wants as the "gold standard". Unfortunately, that "gold standard" can test for literally thousands of substances set for by whatever the agency is requesting those tests. The USADA is even applauding PBF's contractual demands for such testing as it will mean even more relevance for them. Here lies the issues; who is going to maintain blood year round for comparative blood doping tests? Who is going to set the standards for hormonal level thresholds or what are banned or controlled substances for boxing? With Steroids, HGH, Narcotics that's an easy answer but Will Xylocaine like PBF uses be illegal? Will testosterone boosters be illegal, Creatine? Does PBF get to dictate what is and isn't illegal? Now, today boxing drug testing is a joke we all can agree to that and the ultimate goal is to have a good standard in place. The testing that I mentioned in earlier posts can basically be done on any genetic material and like any testing you have to target specific substances, and their levels. The DoD uses very stringent test based on the methods I described for urinalysis. Since they are testing Pilots and people with critical and dangerous professions these tests have lower thresholds than even the IOC. As you can see there are alternatives to blood testing beyond what Manny P. feels comfortable with, so why not use these?Quote:

Don't misunderstand my argument of Manny being clean, he may be dirty for all I know. BUT, PBF's all or nothing approach to this matter is clearly a case of him trying to get into Manny's head more than him trying to do what right for the sport.

Since they are testing Pilots and people with critical and dangerous professions these tests have lower thresholds than even the IOC. As you can see there are alternatives to blood testing beyond what Manny P. feels comfortable with, so why not use these?Quote:

Don't misunderstand my argument of Manny being clean, he may be dirty for all I know. BUT, PBF's all or nothing approach to this matter is clearly a case of him trying to get into Manny's head more than him trying to do what right for the sport. There are other ways to test athletes even contrary to USADA.
I can care less about the whole Manny Vs Floyd thing or debate but just to ring in on the steroid issue itself....
Unless a person takes steroids/enhancers to an extended period of time they will not have an effect on performance......You can't take them once or only before the fight etc.....
There has to bee an extended amount of time for them to take full effect....so the 1 or 2 even 3 weeks to start them and use them to gain an advantage is no really very practical...so the olympic style testing 2 weeks before then fight would certainly expose the use even a month before would show traces

Here lies the issues; who is going to maintain blood year round for comparative blood doping tests? Who is going to set the standards for hormonal level thresholds or what are banned or controlled substances for boxing? With Steroids, HGH, Narcotics that's an easy answer but Will Xylocaine like PBF uses be illegal? Will testosterone boosters be illegal, Creatine? Does PBF get to dictate what is and isn't illegal? Now, today boxing drug testing is a joke we all can agree to that and the ultimate goal is to have a good standard in place.

Sorry for the previous table mess:
Corey Haim took 'em all at the same time.
The drug test was just a smokescreen PERIOD. A duck. Floyd never wanted the fight. Within the first two weeks or so of the "negotiations" 2 people affiliated with Golden Boy (Bernard Hopkins) and Mayweather (George Peterson) spoke out and pretty much said that the fight wasnt going to happen. Why do you ask? Why would Floyd not want to make 25-40 million dollars? Because he knew(after watching Pac/Cotto) that he had a very real chance at losing, so he was protecting his "moneymaker" which would be his severely overrated "0". Because once the "0" is gone then what else would he have to sell? Because he surely cant sell his ability to entertain and excite people in the ring thats for damn sure. Step back and look at the big picture instead of bickering over "he said this" or "he said that" bullshit.
