[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 1361011, member: 9374"] PacMan doesn't have a problem taking a drug test... he's offered many times. The problem is, he's superstitious about losing in the past after having blood drawn close to a fight date. So Mayweather is insisting on a test within a week of the fight, I think because he knows it is pushing Manny's buttons and Floyd really doesn't want to fight him. And yes, Margarito tried to cheat, the person from Manny's camp AND the doctor both saw one of Margarito's trainers try to get him to take the HydroxyCut. When Manny's guy pointed it out, the doc said, "Hey, he's knows it's banned, but he can take it if he wants to." Essentially saying he knows he'll forfeit if he wins, but they can't stop him. Anyways, awesome display from Pacquiao, as well as a classy victory> he kept looking to the ref in the later rounds (particularly the 11th) as if asking him to stop the fight (he later admitted he had "pity" on Margarito), and when that wasn't forthcoming, finally only threw like 20 punches in the 12th round, and essentially even pulling those when possible. After the fight, Manny still refused to say even one thing critical of Margarito, in spite of Antonio spending weeks talking about how Manny had no power, couldn't hurt him, calling him names, tearing up pictures of him in magazines in public places and even making fun of Manny's trainer Freddy Roach's Parkisonism. My step-dad said he even saw Margarito's son (looks to be about 6??) come out and say Pacquiao was a b!tch! Seriously??? Where did he hear that kind of crap? I promise you, my son would be picking himself up off the floor and then apologizing on camera to anyone he said that about. Margarito and his crew are scumbags, plain and simple. Pacquiao exemplifies what boxing should be... all about what happens in the ring, and winning (and losing) with grace and humility. He lets his fighting talk for him and lets the bull$h!t take care of itself. Congrats to Manny Pacquiao, and here's looking to a Pacquiao/Mayweather supermatch - although I don't think it'll happen anytime soon. [/QUOTE]
