i don't think it matters if he is clean or not.. my complaint with Floyd is he just doesn't say "forget the tests.. 50-50 purse lets fight" i think no matter what Floyd is just a much superior boxer and would win
but some of that is simply down to genetics... different bodies carry weight in different ways... some of it is down to choice, i.e. WHAT the athlete is focusing on the most, etc. ...
You're OVERLOOKING the FACT that Pacquiao's Speed, Power & Stamina NEVER Waned, as he Moved Up thru the Weight Classes...Those are ALL Red Flags, Mex... Even your Beloved Roberto Duran Saw his Speed & Power DISSIPATE w/Each Weight Class...Pac's DIDN'T...Pacquiao INCREASED his Bulk w/Out Sacrificing Speed, Power OR Stamina???... Juice... What we Witnessed was a "Karma KO"... REED:hammert:
THIS^^^^^ As far as I am concerned, Pacquaio, for very likely the FIRST TIME in any of these fights above 130, was in there with a guy who was using the same illegal means that he is and he got knocked the fuck out... I am disappointed that JMM would go that route, but he leveled the playing field in order to compete with a cheater.
Yep... REED Certainly Doesn't CONDONE it, but this is the State of Affairs in Sports these Days..."If you Ain't CHEATING, you Ain't TRYING", as the Saying Goes.... REED:mj:
:red: PBF is one of the biggest pricks out there, but there is no evidence to prove your proposterous claim.
Let's look at it this way. Why is it that JMM is seemingly the only guy immune to the PED's of Manny? Unless you think Manny was taking something back at 130-135, why did the JMM fights look so similar? Manny wrecks all these big guys, and then here comes little JMM and gives him all he can handle yet again at a higher PED induced weight. Why did it make such a huge difference against everyone but JMM?
And if you think Pacquiao hasn't played his part in making sure the Mayweather fight did not happen, then I don't know what to say. Both guys have made excuses for a long time about not fighting the other and neither one went out of his way to try to seriously make the fight or call the other guy's bluff, unless you believe Bob Arum when he gave Mayweather the "deadline" to sign the fight. Pacquiao's reign at welterweight has been a farce. Fighting guys at catch weights, or mostly facing guys that Mayweather already beat. And I'm not a fan of Floyd Mayweather. I don't hate him, but his act was also tiresome. I just don't understand how people give Manny a free pass for doing exactly the same shit Mayweather does, yet those same people crucify Floyd.
brother Z i'm serious if you have followed him since he was a kid.. i don't see how anyone can argue it I don't get all the hate.. he is a good kid who has fought GREAT since he was young
there's no evidence to support your theory on "when" this use of PEDs started... that's what he is getting at it's the same as your asinine positions on Trinidad... you pull qualifying assertions straight out of your ass and repeat them ad infinitum, as if you expect people to simply start believing
If I were to guess when Mayweather began takin PEDs it would be when he moved up to fight Corley not the ndou fight
And you allow yourself to be offended by the opinions of others. did i ever claim that my thoughts on when PBF begin using PEDs was anything but an opinion? when i made reference to the documentation of his having failed at least one test, i was responding to the charge there was no evidence to support my claim. that simply isn't true (although even if it had been I would've been perfectly entitled to say what I did regarding N'dou - as much as it might pain you).
Different fighters, different styles.. Marquez is a VERY tough AND good counterpuncher He had been rocked before by PAC as well... I just think all the PED stuff is getting out of hand
surely, you can't be serious Clottey and Mosley especially were about as aggressive against Pacquaio as Derrick Gainer was against Marquez
Good point...but I guess I'd say they were bigger guys who probably didn't expect how hard PAC hit...Marquez knew and was more accustomed to it and would try to avoid
