Pacquiao successfully files law suit

[fan johnny]

Althougth there is a amount specified in the suit, There is something called punitive damages and or actual damages. It could be called something else but I'm pretty sure there is more than one type of award if the case is won. The Pacquiao's Lawyer might be talking about the one not listed. Mayweather's insistence on having testing done outside of Boxing could actually be used against him as proof of losses using the guaranteed amount especially if he put his name to paper on the other issues. I'm pretty sure everyone will agree that Pacquiao's reputation has suffered greatly because Mayweather's insistence to have additional testing done. People will try to argue that it's because Pacquiao would not agree to the random part of the tests but the truth is, it is all additional testing. The court should view it as such, unless his Lawyer is able to spin it without showing Mayweather is guilty implying that Pacquiao is using PED's. It a catch-22 situation. So ya the case could possibly be worth millions.

Do you really think he's going to make 40 million off this? An extreme increase in performance is a reason stated by the WADA for doing extra testing of an athlete, the NSAC defers to the WADA for their drug screening rules. Pacquiao has been untouchable in his last few fights in higher weight classes.
Mayweather Sr. thinks he's on steroids, so the Mayweather camp says ok prove you're clean and we'll make the fight happen. And then the lawsuit came, not after the accusation, but after they asked for a drug test.

Who cares about the case and how much money he can make?

He just ruined the chance for the fight. As of March 17th Pacquiao starts his political campaign, that's it for boxing assuming he wins the election. With all the blind devotion he gets he should be easy victor.

Actually I don't care if he make only 1 cent from the Law Suit, it just that people were writing 75x4/5=350K. You could be right that Mayweather will have a good defense. But as you have just stated you have your doubts about Pacquiao. Much more now than if only Mayweather Sr. said it.

[I don't think his chances of fighting Mayweather are ruined. Especially if Pacquiao wins the case. It should piss Mayweather Jr. off so much that he'd jump at the chance to face Pacquiao. If we are lucky, we might get to see Mayweather try to go toe to toe.... (Not really I'm just playing)
No way a fight gets made! ]

I just read though a big part of the petition (someone posted the link) and the $75K apparently is a only number that it exceeds. Not a specified amount he is claiming. The evidence listed against Mayweather Jr. is not so damning as it is with Mayweather Sr. I don't know what that means in making connections because it will be the Lawyer's job will be to connect the dots. I think he's going to have to do it with additional petitions. I don't think well be getting too many more accusations about Pacquiao using PED's from any of the named defendants. The rules are they get the filed documents as well.

Do I want to see Pacquiao win the case? I don't care... I only want to see the look on Mayweather Sr.'s face if he does. Why? I can't stand the disrespect he shows. As for Mayweather Jr. I don't think he is as malicious as Sr. but I also don't think he is innocent of wanting Pacquiao to have a popularity downfall. I'd much rather see the fight.

Yes, new 1-post user who has such an undoubtedly American screen name. I'm sure your ip adress has never been seen on this site before. It is definitely just a witch hunt based on absolutely nothing suspicious at all.

To everyone else happy new years, hope everyone's havin a bit more fun... lot more fun than I am. Strep throat sucks... Sydney Australia goes OFF on NYE.
Hopefully Manny makes himself a good new years resolution that has to do with his supposed 'fear of needles'.

Oh well fuck it, I'm no pactard but I believe he's innocent. Hell, so does Larry Merchant!

Seriously though Pacquiao is a proud man and for me personally if he wins the lawsuit it regains a snip of credibility. Unfortunately doubts will always remain but the statment he released yesterday comes across as genuine to me.

F*ck this witch hunt! Not one gad damn shred of evidence, innocent until proven guilty!!!

Random testing is the proving method. Manny doesn't want to prove it in the ring when we know it's fair. Cmon, as a community we should push Manny to just accept the tests, they'll have to be put in place in boxing at some point anyways, does Manny want to go down in history as one of the last champions to oppose this (more conclusive) type of testing? If he throws this fight away over a few teaspoons of blood, he should be considered guilty.
EDIT: and btw, Larry Merchant is senile and has been for years now. You can tell from his ridiculous catch phrases: "Paulie Malignaggi floats like a butterfly and stings...... like a butterfly.." Seriously, what a f**king idiot. HBO should get a wheelchair (or coffin) on standby for him.
