Right now, Pound for pound Mayweather is money in the bank. No one who is out there now can beat him. Pacquaio will give a good fight, but he will come up short. For he will be expoused for taking enhancements. Originally Posted by SOULMANIKE

And just to be clear I wish both were roided up! Now that would be a good fight!!! Originally Posted by xxr76xx
IKE, reading your posts sounds like you're part of Money's management or PR team. Pacquiao was willing to be tested in accordance to boxing rules, giving blood 24 days before the fight, as well as being blood tested after the fight. It's funny that Money never required drug testing be so stringent until this fight. Why? Because he thinks Pac is doping or because he's afraid to blemish his perfect record. I'm not the only one who feels it's the latter. Most in the boxing profession knew if Pac was doping the tests he agreed to would show it, especially following the fight. Still, Money knew Pacquiao wouldn't agree to it and he had his excuse not to fight. Now Pac relented to 14 days before the fight and I don't think Money will accept that.It is the same testing that is required in the Olympics so it shouldn't be a big deal. The rules in boxing differ greatly from state to state and they have never done a good job of regulating themselves anyway.
Yes, he has been a great fighter, but his shameless self-promotion as the best fighter ever in the history of the sport is ridiculous. Mayweather has hand-picked his opponents for years. He wouldn't fight De La Hoya until he was over the hill and the same for Mosely, who almost knocked him out in the second round. He's never fought a top notch, quality opponent in their prime, which Pacquiao is. If Money's as great as he claims, why dodge Pac, using drug tests as his out?
Until he fights and beats Pacquiao, he may remain undefeated, but will never get the "best fighter" acclaim he professes to be. Originally Posted by surcher

Steroids would not be used in the short term before a fight.
I am sure Mayweather used steroids in his early training days. AFAIK, most boxers do,
Pac has none of the look of a body trained by steroids.
The short term would be about endurance enhancing drugs, which would easily be detected immediately after the fight, as Pac has agreed.
Mayweather is scared and it shows
