If he loses, do we chalk it up to the fact he lost to a better fighter or that he was on roids for the other fights and not this one? On the other hand, if he tests clean for this fight and wins, does this validate all his other performances? No, it shouldn't.
The bottom line is that Pac has tested clean his whole career and until he doesn't test clean, he can't be guilty of anything. Not that I am any sort of authority at all, but I don't believe Pac took roids because I thought he outboxed his recent opponents not outlasted or outchinned them. He would have knocked Hatton out in two rounds regardless and destroyed Oscar in the same way at 147. The Cotto fight was close until the third or fourth round when he hurt Cotto with a punch Cotto didn't see. That was the game changer. I don't see how roids helped that.
