Boxing

are you a mayweather fan boy?

i dont no - but if its been good enough until now then who is mayweather to say we change it?

its governed and controlled by a professional body - what more do you want? i have told you the reasons why theydont want to draw blook so close to a fight - an they seem legitimate reasons to me too

I replied with, why does every other athlete in the world manage to perform to there 100% ability with random drugs tests?

lol wat

ok if i said it weakens you then i will stand corrected

tho i am sure i didnt, i am sure i gave a different reason, more closley related to the endorphones argument

like i said - i dont no enough about it so dont want to commit

i come back to my original point tho - if it results in a 1% performance decrease then surely, in the biggest fight of the decade, thats got to be negaive for the fighter?

Every world class athlete, still manages to perform to there capabilites, when randomly drug tested.

You don't see an athlete come out and go "sorry guys, I lost because they took a tablespoon of my blood"

Okay can we stop anyone defending GBP? They are hypocrites

This quote from a news article in March 2008 might interest you because it proves GBP and the Mayweathers are making a mockery of boxing and its fans:

"Whatever tests they want them to take, Shane will submit to that. We are not going to do other tests than the Nevada commission requires," Schaefer said. "The fact is Shane is not a cheater and he does not need to be treated like one."
-- Richard Schaefer, Golden Boy Promotions chief executive, on defending Shane Mosley from taking drug tests other than those required by the Nevada Athletic Commission for his planned fight against Zab Judah

Here's the link of the whole AP article:

Over at ESPN

You can say they both spout .

Considering you can donate 1.5 pints and then continue sport activites in 2 days, what he is saying is a total, and complete lie.

Oh don't get me wrong, I agree! I simply think that people defending GBP need to have a better picture of exactly who they are talking about. Anyway that quote from Roach is a response to an equally exaggerated claim from a hypocritical company.

Yeah i'm not defending GB I just think it should be widespread in boxing, seems very hypocritical of them.

Who's in the wrong over this blood testing malarkey? Is PBF pussying out of fighting Manny? Or is Manny trying to find excuses to not fight PBF? I personally want MP to **** all over PBF if ever a fight did materialize.

The rubbish Roach is coming up with about blood testing sounds as if he dosn't want it done for other reasons (I don't think Manny cheats but there is a reason he wants to stop or stall negotiations.)

Seems to be no reason not too.

Then again, it's up to him.

there's bad blood between Roach and the PBF camp IIRC? Why is this? It's been this way for a while? I think it's tragic that they're putting themselves first before a viewing audience. It all seems so immature. Shame that we'll be deprived of a great fight, all because of a few people being arse holes and bickering like little ****s.

This nonsese about Pacman sueing PBF will get laughed out of court, if he hasn't agreed to random drug tests, they have every right to say this when explaining why the fight is being called off. They havn't said he is cheating, it's a shame I have lost respect for Pacman due to this.
