    Are there true unbiased journalists or boxing commentators/analysts out there? In one way or the other I thought George Foreman was ok as far as I remember.
    There was one person Foreman was REALLLY biased towards and that was Oscar De La Hoya.
    He seemingly couldn't remove his tongue from Oscar's backside for whatever reason! For example he thought Oscar won the Quartey fight "hands down!" which I found bizarre. Otherwise he generally called fights how he felt he saw them.
    Oh no doubt he was always praising Oscar to death. I remember in that fight with Quartey when Oscar was going for it in the last round, "He's a brave man, that De La Hoya!," yadda yadda yadda.

    Even in the Trinidad and Vargas fights he got a lot of bias reporting from Foreman.

    Oscar, great fighter, but please be objective! But in fairness he usually is.

    Has any well-known journalist/commentator/analyst/expert/etc. has straight out thrown crap at Manny for refusing to have his blood tested Olympic style and raising suspicion for all of the excuses?

    Teddy Atlas questioned Manny Pac, supposedly he has an unnamed source that saw Pacquiao email the Mayweathers asking what would happen if he failed the drug tests and if they can keep it a secret for his image.

    There you have it.

    Is that a joke ?

    Pedro Fernandez who runs the RingTalk site on the net has been very critical of Manny for not taking the blood test

    NO that's not a joke. Teddy Atlas went on ESPN Friday Night Fights to say he has a trusted unnamed source that saw the email that supposedly Manny sent asking these questions.

    3 months later We've heard nothing about this email.

    I remember hearing this, was this ever official or was it just a rumor?

    Sure, many magazines, sports channels, radio, etc. have questioned Floyd's resume, say he's running away from Manny, etc. But I am not sure if there are equal amount of OFFICIAL sources that throw crap at Manny for refusing a blood test, talking about suspicion for cheating, etc.
