BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Don't believe everything you hear in the national media, all Pacquiao had to do is agree to blood testing, and that fight would have already happened. Give one good reason why he doesn't want to submit to the Olympic style blood testing.
I dint like Mayweather, but he is the best pound for pound fighter I have ever seen.
Shane has a good chance. He is supposedly just as fast as Mayweather and used to be considered the pound for pound best a while back as well.
Pac-man didn't want to submit to the blood testing because the last fight he lost he believed it was because he lost too much blood. He supposedly believes if he gives blood before the fight, it will make him weak. They say he has no trouble providing blood after the fight (which would still show performance enhancing drugs if any were there) but he doesn't want to give his blood before.
A year ago I would've said Mayweather would beat him like he stole something but after seeing Mosley completely DESTROY Margarito, I think he might have a shot.

From someone who spent 7+ years cycling on and off steroids, he would not test positive if his fight was during his cycling off period, so that is why Mayweather would want olympic style testing.
The crap about losing too much blood is just that "CRAP", a few ounces will not effect him in any way. He lost that fight because Erik Morales was better that night.
That could be true but, as you know, it all depends on the steroid, as some stay in your system well over a few weeks (test enthanate or Sust, or especially Deca) or if it is a short acting ester it can be out quick (cypionate, propionate).
If he would be cycling down, I am sure he would use some ancillaries for anti-estro or to get his natural test production going again, which would surely be picked up in a test (hcg, clomid, armidex, nolvadex, etc). The HGH test is still pretty unreliable thus far as to my knowledge, it has only caught one person (a rugby player).
Nonetheless, I agree it shouldn't be a problem for the blood to be taken, as there is absolutely no evidence the quanitities used to test for PEDs could weaken anyone. Morales did whoop his ass that night, not the loss of blood.
It shouldn't matter if he is on steroids or not because Mayweather acts like he can kill anyone in the ring, so what does it matter anyways hahaha:eyepoke:
I'm pulling for Sugar cuz I hate that puss ass fighting style of Jr. I hate to see a track meet in a ring. If it turns into a fight Sugars got a good shot.
Mayweather will win cause he only fights people he can beat. so what i want to know did mosley have to agree to olympic style drug testing? True giving blood wouldn't shouldn't weaken pac-man but if he believes it then it will. Maywether ducks people, if you don't think so why didn't he fight mosley a couple years ago when it would of been a tougher fight

I am not saying Mayweather doesn't duck fighters, but to place all the blame of the none Pac-Man fight on him is crap. I truly think he is scared to fight Manny, and did the drug testing thing knowing it would either (A) cause Manny not to fight or (B) bother Manny to the point he would not be 100%.
He did not ask Mosley to test because he thinks he can beat him. I see Mayweather all the time here, and he is a prick, but he is still a great boxer and showman.

I'd like to see Mosley win just so Mayweather would shut his mouth, but, alas even if Mosley did win, thats probably not a reality lol. A Mayweather - Pacquiao fight would just be the tits though, wouldn't it?

I'd have to agree with this hands down
