Another Boxer Accuses Manny Pacquiao Of Taking Steroids!

In a radio interview with Ring Talk, host Pedro Fernandez asked boxer Kermit Cintron about the upcoming HBO Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight, Kermit Cintron, who fights at the 147 and 154 pound weight classes, told Fernandez that he believes Manny Pacquiao is on some type of steroids/enhancers.
“I just think that… I honestly think that he is taking something, because a lot of fighters coming up in weight like that, 40 something pounds… he just looks ripped like Bruce Lee. A lot of people who come up in weight like that don’t look as ripped as he is, they hold a lot of water weight. I just believe he is taking something. I think he is taking something that’s for sure. I don’t know what it is, whatever he is taking its not coming up in the drug test. I honestly believe he is taking something, no 112 pounder comes up to 147, to look the way he does, he is taking something. Definitely, people who come up in weight like that they look soft, they don’t look as ripped like when they fought at the weight they started. Its definitely questionable.”

I would like to apologize to all those that were offended by Laura. You see, I’m her mom so I know her condition first hand. She is what you would call “mentally challenged”. Obviously from her actions you can see that her way of thinking is equal to that of a 10 year old. Therefore, please just excuse my daughter and just ignore what she says. You all should consider yourselves lucky that you don’t have her limited brain.
I couldn’t agree more to my mom… I’m retarded! My brain is, indeed, very little so I have this racist outburst.
The truth is I’ve been dumped by too many Filipino men so I became very bitter towards that race.
Wow….so this is the famous Laura. I saw this article and blog today all over Facebook. It seems you have angered a lot of Filipinos around the world. I suggest you hide because even the media are going to track you down my friend.
By the way….message to the fake Laura and fake Laura’s mom (towards the end of this blog). You don’t need to protect her. She will pay for what she did. All the hurtful and racist remarks she wrote here are considered hate crime.
Wow… some people are just plain stupid..File a libel case manny and earn additional from this dude. I think the next time they will now accuse manny pacquaio as being an alien from outer space disguised as a pilipino.. he he he
Hello MOther Fucker Laura, putang ina mo.. kung sino ka man tarantado ka… Matindi ka mang insulto ng pinoy putang ina mo… go to hell mother fucker…
Ikaw laura.. kung ikaw man ay egoy o puti.. i just want to tell you you are a mother fucker…show yourself you racist bitch…
Laura, brush me. It seems that u forgot that u have teeth and we are turning brown already. Oh yeah, u have to wash ur other parts of ur body coz you smell like a walking garbage can. Also, please pay ur bills coz they are all piling up and that;s the reason why u are so jealous about how FIlipinos earn so much money than u. u are a lazy bitch, easy slut. You will end up in a nursing home when u get old and nobody will wipe ur ass until u die in ur own shit. Nobody will come to visit you because u are a bad person and everyone hates u. Laura depend on Medicare and who do u think pays for ur medication? Filipinos who work hard and pay taxes and that’s where u get ur medication. Ok Laura, if not for Filipinos and all the immigrants, there will be no United States of America. I bet you are not native that’s why you talk like that. Stupid ass!
He is called cintron coz his penis is short as a centimeter
Dont listen to Laura, just feel sorry for her, obviously something in the past hurt her so much that she is so bitter and nothing ever good comes from her mouth. So whatever she says they have no value and they are not true. HOW CAN A PERSON CAN BE SO OBJECTIVE IN WHAT THEY SAY WHEN THEY ARE SO MAD, AND SOMETHING IN THE PAST REALLY HURT THEM. She twisted certain obsevations, the reason is that she is mentally unstable. Just be sorry for her. While all of us here are mentally stable and we can mentally formulate certain truth because of a healthy brain and healty emotions we should really value that coz we are functioning properly as people, while the poor Laura watch out for her she might commit suicide observing the hatred she fills toward the world. Lets pray for Laura maybe there is still hope for her, seriously
First of all my cousin Hansel work for Pacman, by brother Ramon works for him too they cook for him, and my relative name Pong is his driver, they practically see him everyday, when he eats, when he box, when is sing karaoke, when he runs, when he plays billiard, my point is they all see him 24/7. They all swear he not only takes it, he does not even know what they are, and much less for sure who to buy it from. ????????? what the hell is this frivolous accusations from a boxer who got lost in the shadows. The guy is simply a freak of nature, coz I know, coz I have seen him myself. He may look ordinary, but inside and his genetics are out of the ordinary, how do I know that? its coz he can knock people out at a light weight, he is super incredibly fast, his stamina is out of this world. Some of these people like Cintron is only seeing things from his mediocre ordinary physicality that is why he cannot comprehend how manny can be so ripped gaining 40 pounds. Manny is physical specimen he should not see himself in Manny. Maybe he did that coz he was jealous
First it was Floyd Sr. then his brother now Cintron accusing Manny of steroid use. It’s just simply dumb and idiotic for someone to accused another of wrongdoing without much of evidence, story or anything. Cintron and Floyd have one thing in common and it is they’re both losers. Now explain to me how Mosley, Mayweather, Cotto went from lightweight to welterweight and never get accuse of using steroid? I never thought Cintron can be that stupid!
Pacquiao did not move up in weight gradually as boxer, at all. He made a jump from junior lightweight to lightweight to welterweight all in the same year. This doesnt mean that he is on steroids or any other performance enhancers, at all. But lets not be unrealistic. There is no way a lawsuit would make it into court. Cintron made it pretty clear that he was stating his opinion and not making any fact based accusation. Opinions don’t have to be based on anything. Falsiified information and blatant lies or the only things that can be considered slander or defamation of character in the American justice system law. I think pissing you guys off was the intended effect. He succeeded.

performace enhancer on pacman??? yes… try to eat for chicken tinola and white rice….
you will be a powerful fighter…
We eat adobo, sinigang, tinola, paksiw, lechon and balut. waheheheh…
LOL lots of excuses from a retard .. manny owns! hehe
Pacman is is a juicehead posterboy in my opinion, the guy is living of HGH. Mosley passed drug tests 2 but later was found to be part of the Balco scandal. The point is not all, especially new performance enhancers are detectable on drug tests. And there is no Test that can test for HGH right now available. With that said; i stand by my belief that this guy is undoubtedly on steroids.
Anyone who takes one good look at MP and thinks he is NOT on steroids, and has not been on roids half his life, can never have put his foot in a gym and tried to gain that kind of ripped body without the juice.
I’ts just not possible, and every Filipino knows it in their heart of hearts. They just don’t want to admit it.
And everybody knows that drug testing in boxing is a non-event. They only test sometimes during the matches, not when the boxers are training and building muscles and strength.
Get real.
Kermit is right. Manny is taking something. Something called protein shakes, amino acid pills, cooked chicken, rice, and eggs…aka 4K calories a day along with a workout plan made by Ariza. That is why it is undetectable in the drug tests.
with fans comes haters. it’s what makes sports exciting.

you are so lucky this is an anonymous comment posting else you’d probably be dead by now. watch your accusations.
Before you say something you must have a determination to prove it and for your information we hate cheating on any sports we are naturally born as creative, talented and strong.

I have seen almost every pacman fight from 112 pounds to now. Here is why i think it is likely he is on perfomance enhancement drugs:
1- Physique: Just recently Juan Manuel Marquez moved up alot of weight to fight Mayweather, Marquez unlike Pacman retained some water weight. He was muscular but not ripped as pacman who now looks like bruce lee. Boxer Kermit Cintron has said there is no way without some perfomance enhancement drugs can you gain over 20 pounds of muscle in such a short time. Even Duran, De La Hoya, and Mayweather didnt look that ripped.
2- He seems to get stronger with weight. If you look at pacman he was actually knock down 5 times at 126 and lower. He was knocked out twice by torrecampo and Singurat 3k batter, and was taken down by a stiff jab by Hussein at 122. But now he is willing to allow Cotto give him free body shots on the ropes. Cotto a man who can knockout a natural welter with ONE body shot and couldnt do any damage to pac with dozens. He had to go 12 rounds with Marquez twice, Larios, and Morales (1st fight) but now he can physically dominate naturally bigger fighters as David Diaz, De la hoya, Hatton, and Cotto.
3-Stamnia – Most fighters show fatigue and less sting in their punches in the late rounds. But pacman never shows any signs of that. in fact, the volume of punches get hige often. People say steroids hamper stamina for boxing. WRONG. If steroids don’t help stamina why would pitchers like Clemens and Pettite take them if they decrease and not increase pitches thrown and innings pitched. In addition, these drugs help increase recovery time. Most importantly, pacman has been active for 15 years as a fighter and he never shows any effects of his tough fights. His energy seems to be get higher even after numerous slugfests. After Duran fought Hagler in a 15 round battle he had nothing left for Thomas Hearns and was knocked out in 2 rounds.
4-Head- His head seems to get bigger in proporation to his body. These are signs of HGH and other substances.
5- Designer Steroids can’t be Traced- The fact is synthethic steroids as THG, Madol and Genabol can’t be traced. There are also synthetic stimulants that can’t be traced. So of course he hasen’t tested positive.
6-Never heard of Steroids: Manny has stated he never heard of steroids. That is both humorous and preposterous at once. I guess when they do his blood and urine drug tests he thinks they are checking if he takes Flinstones Vitamins for kids or if he takes energy bars. Of course, HE KNOWS. They even have to sign papers with random drug tests. That sounds very defensive to say i never heard of steroids.
7-No Wear Down: All fighters are human after numerous fights they start to show age and wear down. Pacman has been active for 15 years as a fighter and he never shows any effects of his tough fights. His energy seems to be get higher even after numerous slugfests. After Duran fought Hagler in a 15 round battle he had nothing left for Thomas Hearns and was knocked out in 2 rounds. Even Hagler after the Duran fight looked shaky with Roldan early on. He even had his only official knockdown on the 1st round. Although some will argue it was half slip and half punch. Pacman has had tough wars with Morales, Marquez, Sanchez, Barreras etc., yet he seems to be impervious to slowing down as a fighter. Hagler a very conditioned fighter definitely started to slow down after his fights with Duran, Hearns, and John Beast Mugabi. Hagler was very slow in the Leonard fight due to the constant wars he had.
8- Top Rank doesent sue for Libel or Slander: Floyd Mayweather Jr and his father both have accused pacman of taking perfomance enhancing drugs. Bob Arum is an attorney why wouldnt he seek relief and damages for his top prize fighter’s reputation being questioned? Because if top rank sues and they testify and its proven later that manny took drugs than they can go to jail for perjury. Some will say he wants to fight mayweather so he wont sue but other fighters as Kermit Cintron have already accused him. NO LAWSUIT yet.
9-Philippine culture: This dosent sound politically correct but i know the culture, I been to the philippines. I can speak some tagalog and cebuano. The country has a long history of corruption, scandals, and political wrong doing. The manila airport is the only major airport that charges a terminal fee for using their facility. Hotels are known to trump up charges on visitors. Manny knows the culture wells. The motivation is to make millions of dollars by cheating. If Manny stays at Featherweight and lower he wont make $10-$20 Million fight. He at best will be like Chris John of Indonesia a featherweight making at most $1 million a fight.
10- Defies Reality: Unfortunately, we have seen boxers as Vargas, Jones, Toney, Mosley get caught. We were foolish to believe that Mcgwire and Sosa hit 70 home runs and 66 home runs due to hard work and talent. Than Barry Bonds breaks the record a few years later, a record that couldnt be touch for nearly 40 years. Now we have a boxer that is Henry Armstrong with shocking power. When De La Hoya fought Hopkins at 160 he was KOd with one body punch. THe Great Jose Napoles couldnt handle the naturally bigger Monzon, Arguello couldnt finish Pryor on his quest for his 4th weight division crown. Now we have a Flyweight knocking out welters SO EASy. He is like a God. But he didnt look like a god before at 122. He is not a god. He is JUST JUICED UP.
[...] Days Prior to Pacquiao’s fight with WBO welterweight Champion Miguel Cotto on Saturday Nov. 14, boxer Kermit Cintron also believed that the Pacman was on something(Cintron believes Pacman is on something). [...]
Laura why don’t you try to go on Philippines and say that words to us. God Bless to you!
oh well… now its steroids or enhancement drugs… with any ahtletes like phelps or and sportsman lance armstrong… its discipline and mind set of being the best in their line of sport… pacman even said he has to believe that he isn’t hurt,but he was during the cotto fight… he even said he has to control the fight even when he is badly hurt… did u see him he’s all blakc and blue too, after the fight… the thing is this little guy made it to the ring of the giants “and nobody can’t believe it!” WHY CANÆT WE JSUT ACCEPT THAT EXTRAORDINARY STRENGTHES COME IN DIFFERENT FORMS AND SIZES! .. . NOW UR TLAKING ABOUT UNDETECTABLE STEROIDS?!!!!! AND HAVE U BEEN TO THE PHILIPPINES?!! TOUGH GUYS THERE HAVE MUSCLES AS HARD AS A BRICK BECAUSE OF HARDWORK! PEOPLE WHO EARN 300 PESOS A DAY CARRYIGN SACKS OF RICE (30 KILOS PER SACK!)THE WHOLE DAY! BACK BREAKING HARDWORK PHIL NOT STEROIDS….

…things people will say just to get their 15 minutes of air time…
It’s called natural supplements, buddy! Balut, San Miguel Beer, and rice!
I think it’s a great possibility that Manny is on Steriods. I know its hard for people to believe because they fell for the hype. But i think theres a huge chance Manny is on Steriods. We just have to wait and see
