Comments Thread For: HBO's Greenburg: Mayweather-Pacquiao Talks Took Place!

[Vito Corleone]

when has any athlete ever admitted to using peds to get better? It's always for an injury, according to them. Either that or they didn't know. I guess you believe whatever they tell you. I'm not that naive.

fixed that for you, primo

@ Vito Corleone

Does this count?

Vitali Klitschko, who defends his World Boxing Council heavyweight title against Britain's Danny Williams in Las Vegas on Dec 11, has admitted to having used steroids earlier in his career.

He tested positive for a banned substance in 1996 when still an amateur and was instantly thrown off the Ukrainian boxing team for the Atlanta Olympics.

Klitschko had planned to box at super-heavyweight while his younger brother, Wladimir, was entered to compete at the 201lb heavyweight limit.

Wladimir, who was struggling to make his weight, took over the super-heavyweight slot and went on to win the gold medal.

"Their dream was to go to the Olympics and win gold medals together," said Vitali Klitschko's spokesman, Bernd Boente.

The drugs admission is made in Vitali's autobiography, which has just been released and so far is available only in German. In it, Klitschko reveals that he turned to steroids after aggravating an old leg injury he had sustained in a kick-boxing tournament.

"He went to a normal Ukrainian doctor who gave him something that would heal it, but he didn't check the doping list," Boente said.

Klitschko admits that it was a steroid - and shortly afterwards the substance showed up in a routine drug test.

"They are not keeping this a secret," Boente said. "You have to remember this was the Ukraine of eight or nine years ago. Things are very different now.

"At first he was totally angry. He couldn't believe it."

In his eight-year professional career, Klitschko has been tested routinely for banned substances, including steroids, and has always been clean.

Tests for steroids are normal in Germany, where he had the majority of his contests during his rise to the championship.

You don't have any evidence of Floyd "b*tching out." So STFU. Not that I care. Manny Pacquiao would rather fight Antonio Margarito in Timbuktu then take unannounced testing. That's proof enough.

*negotiations begins, pac agrees to floyd's terms*

I agree......it took a couple of months after the accusation when ESPN started speaking about it. But as soon as Mayweather declined, ESPN ripped PBF the next day. And it didn't stop there......more from other sports channels all over the world calling him chicken. It's not stopping Vito. We all know the deal. The steroid accusation has no basis and only people with LOW IQ believe on baseless accusations. But the duck Floyd is REAL. If Floyd doesn't fight Pac, he will be known in history as the DUCK. Fact. We all know it's up to him. First it's the OST issue....now it's the purse.......OMG. What could be more DUCK than that?

Floyd apologist just does not get it. If Floyd wanted to fight Pacquaio. We would not have any discussion about Greenburg. Heck we they would not spin excuses like the OST, purse split, No negotiations and who's lying. The bottom-line is Floyd does not want to fight Pacquiao. He is on vacation (Translation: He is a COWARD)

50-50 + 14 day cutoff = NO TEST, MR. JUICER

Please elaborate.........

[Chups]

I now know who posts this on all the YT videos.

Chups,

Did Mayweather say in February that the 14 day, 50-50 deal was off the table? Yes or no?

I rarely post on Youtube, my signame there is Chupacola. Probably not me.....that statement is just common knowledge.


Pacquiao also said 24 days and 50/50 or the deal is off. But he compromised because he wanted the fight. Now he agreed to 14 days, he expects Mayweather to do the same but the duck did not waver. IN NEGOTIATIONS YOU COMPROMISE IN ORDER TO GET IT DONE.

Look at how Pacquiao compromised during the March negotiations:

PBF: I want Pacquiao to call me out.
Pac: (hesistantly) I want Mayweather!

PBF: I don't want Dallas, I want Las vegas.
Pac: Lets do it at MGM. (The Dallas stadium would be great tho....more seats oh well)

PBF: I want you to take OST
Pac: Sure

PBF: Within the day of the fight
Pac: Ummmm, I'm superstitious, I lost to Morales that way.

PBF: AHA!! That's it. (Ellerbe, insist on that day of the fight testing)

Floyd Fanboys Are The Worst

Why are you guys arguing with these morons? Any person, with remote activity in their brain stem, understands that Floyd does not want to fight Pacquiao. IMDAZED has got to be one of the dumbest posters on here.

These two clowns will do everything in their power to engage you in these circle-jerk arguments, to take the focus off of the fact that Ross Greenburg just confirmed what the world already knew:

For whatever reason; Floyd does not want to fight Manny Pacquiao.

The rest of this garbage is just a smoke screen from a bunch of fanboys that can't handle the truth.
