    I have been reading some of the other Philipino boxing forums and some of the comments made just seem to go to the extreme.
    The general opinion seems to be if you question the refusal then you must be a PBF fan/nuthugger/Manny hater!
    Also they won't even concede that it would be possible for him to be on PED's. How can you possibly justify that?
    Would like to know if there are genuine Philipino BOXING fans out there
    I have to agree with you. I don't even visit the Philippine boxing forums anymore due to the fanaticism and close-mindedness. Mind you, not all Filipinos think this way. I should know. I'm one of them. I find it hard to even tolerate them (the Pacnuts) but it's still a free world and it does make things interesting in a sickening sort of way.

    I just can't help but provide my input on this circus of an event. I personally feel that Manny should just take the test and get it over with. Ok. Pac doesn't like his blood taken a few days before the fight. Personally, I feel that this is bullshit but to each his own bullshit. However, how the Mayweather camp and GBP is dictating things doesn't fare well especially for using Pacquiao as a guinea pig in this testing thing if ever it becomes the standard. He's the first ever Filipino that has received worldwide acclaim and they're also using him as a guinea pig in the zenith of his career. The Filipino contingent doesn't take this lightly. Well... I doubt any nation or race will take things lightly if they're treated this way. Much like how Obama shouldn't be criticized since he's the first African-American US President... Ok. You can remove that last part if you're offended. I'm just making comparisons in a neutral Filipino standpoint.

    I also do not approve of the lawsuit thing. Ok. Manny gets his millions (if ever) but where does it leave the boxing fans? We're the reason why they're as big as they are in the first place. Even if Pacquiao wins this case, it only means that he skipped the drug test which doesn't fare well in a boxing fan's mind. He's already accused and there's no such thing anymore as innocent until proven guilty. Yes, it sucks, but that's life. As for the Mayweather is getting hurt more than Pacquiao in the PED thing. I also think that's bullshit. Mayweather has already received some negativity due to his alleged "ducking" for quite some time now. On the other hand, Pacquiao is the good guy which is turning bad really fast in the boxing world.

    It's such a waste.
