'Roids' - now it's Jeff Mayweather's turn - what's their problem?

[DaxxKahn]

He didn't throw any accusations at Manny DIRECTLY, but in a more back handed way by stating, He's just doing it an indirect way by saying "other people" as in people in the fight game, be it boxers or trainers. The implication is there that Manny is on something.

People in this thread have stated that he's a good and standup guy, but he's still a Mayweather and it's his brother (Sr.) making the accusations. He's not going to go against blood.

Please explain any of your statements because in no way whatsoever has he implicated Manny.....Shit I know a ton of other writers that believed Roy Jones was on steroids and a bunch that believed Holyfield was on Roids at one point in time but they did not write articles about it it was just personal opinion....

A back handed accusation does not include the comments
"I don't know what Pacquiao is or isnt on".......

And by the way your theory on Jeff not going against what his brother says is worth about as much as a $3 bill because he has gone against every member of the Mayweather family's statements at one point in time...

In fact he has thrown PBF under the bus on more then one occassion

I already pointed out and made clear where he implicated Manny in my last response to you, the quote I highlighted. It's an appeals to authority logical fallacy when used in arguing or for debates. It is a backhanded accusation and also to make it seem like he's neutral he states, "I’m not here to accuse the man of anything but all I can say is that numerous people feel he has been taking something illegal these past fights."

How many times have I seen this trick used in everyday speech or argumentative prose? It's the oldest trick in the book. To paraphrase Jeff Mayweather, "Look I'm not accusing Manny, but a lot of people have been saying he's using steroids."

That is an accusation, not an direct one but it is one. It is the oldest trick in the book in argumentative prose. There are many various forms of it. Here's let's use this as an example, "Look I'm not against immigrants, but I heard they cause trouble, leech off welfare, commit crimes, and are detrimental to American society."

One just needs to read between the lines to see the clear meaning.

Yeah thats it i'm not reading between the lines, I guess I have not seen this trick used in everyday speech and arguementative prose....

Silly me....

Jeff Mayweather is the only Mayweather that doesnt annoy the sh@t outta me. He shared his opinion and didnt throw out a blant accusation against Pacquiao. Just his opinion in in attempt to defend his brother. He wasnt an @ss about it. And there are a lot of people that question Mannys going up in weight being completely natural. Im not one of them, but there are people out there. Besides, Jeff lasted 40+ years listening to his two clown brothers delusional ramblings. I respect him for that alone.

You ask for a clarification on my comments you got it. If you can't make a rebuttal then go back to engaging in ad hominem criticism and this silly emoticon.

Peace out!
