Calvin, I'll try and fit that in for you my man! As for writing for us, that's something you'll have to e-mail Ben about.

Thanks for the questions!

While I'm sure this topic (and question for that matter) gets old, but in YOUR opinion, what is the likelihood that Manny & Co. have something significant (superstitions aside) to hide, as it pertains to random blood & urine testing?

Which world level fighter in your opinion has the BEST bunch of names on his record right now? Not necessarily all wins, but who has put it out there the most?

Sup Danny?

Thanks for your great work with the show! My question would be, what is your favorite fight to watch of all time?

I got you man, don't worry.

First I'll say this: That fight isn't happening and won't happen because of Bob Arum. Now that I got that out of the way, to answer your question I do believe that there is something going on. There are so many contradictions that have flooded the media in regards to this matter, here are my favorites:

1. Pacquiao is "scared" of needles, yet he owns a tattoo parlor outside of his gym and he's been seen taking blood two weeks out before the Hatton fight happier than all shit. Also, he gets cut like every fight and he doesn't go Juan Diaz mode. More on this in a moment

2. Saying it's not a matter of money but a matter of pride. Are you telling me that Pacquiao has so much pride to turn down a $40-50 million payday cause he's been insulted yet has to ask Bob Arum for a $5 million dollar advance from his upcoming fight? That is a load of bullshit to say "I'm not going to fight this guy because he disrespected me," to then turn around and go "Bob, I need money and I need it right now, take if off my next paycheck." Last time I checked, begging isn't very prideful.

3. 7 days, 14 days, 21 days WTF is going on? Everybody in Manny's camp are giving out numbers like in Super Lotto. Floyd's stance has been full-on random, but Pacquiao's team changes the story when it is convenient for them to do so.

4. Amir Khan had an irregularity in his post fight screening against Marcos Maidana, what then followed was that he subsequently fired Alex Ariza and went into his fight with Paul McCloskey without him. Khan looked sluggish and had to force his way through that fight, everybody said he looked like shit, so then they got Ariza back for the Judah fight. Khan physically looks like a monster and is a far cry from the McCloskey fight...isn't that so weird? Also, Roach worked with James Toney who has been busted for steroids multiple times and admitted that Justin Fortune also used steroids as well, yet he turns around and says in 09 that he doesn't know a thing about steroids?

Finally, if you get pulled over by a cop and he accuses you of driving under the influence and he's going to take you to jail, do you tell the cop to kiss your ass and nobody disrespects you? That would be absolutely stupid. You get out, take the sobriety test, pass and you're on your way because you proved the accuser wrong and invalidated his argument. Pacquiao thinks he doesn't have to do that, I think because everybody who doesn't have something to hide should feel comfortable proving their innocence.

Thank you for the question!

I'd have to say Sergio Martinez and Tomasz Adamek have the resume to back up the hardware. Martinez fought five former or current world champions in a row going 3-1-1 with two KOs and should've KOd Cintron if he didn't bitch out, also before that he stopped Alex Bunema who was, at the time, a top rated contender at 154. Pavlik and Williams became "garbage" after Martinez beat them both, he also was the underdog in those fights if my memory serves me right.

Adamek beat a fresh Paul Briggs twice in two excellent fights, lost to the best Chad Dawson we would never see again, goes up to Cruiserweight and cleans out that division while beating former top dog O'Neil Bell, the consistently best fighter at the division in Steve Cunningham and then an undefeated Jonathan Banks in addition to other wins. He goes up to Heavyweight, LEGITIMATELY earns his shot against Vitali Klitschko by beating serviceable veterans Michael Grant, Andrew Golota, Shawn Estrada, Chris Arreola etc., until he was drubbed by VKlitschko.

Glen Johnson is the easy way to go too, but that'd just be a cop out lol.

Thanks for the question.
