Pacquiao trainer Alex Ariza gives Manny a “Special Blend” of legal supplements
By Nowboxing Staff
Manny Pacquiao’s conditioning coach Alex Ariza is infuriated with the false rumors that he is giving Filipino boxer Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao illegal performance enhancing drugs or steroids and that he is associated with BALCO.
Ariza in a recent interview with BoxingInsider, claims that Manny Pacquiao doesn’t even take aspirin and it took Ariza and Pacman’s head trainer Freddie Roach a long time just to convince Manny to take multi-vitamins and protein shakes for recovery.
Ariza thinks the allegations by Golden Boy Promotions Oscar De La Hoya and Richard Schaefer, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and his Father are ridiculous and unproven. Manny Pacquiao himself is going to take legal action and file libel, slander and defamation of character lawsuits against his accusers. Pacquiao has tested clean for all of his fights in the state of Nevada.
Ariza who officially took over as conditioning coach for the Filipino bomber in 2008 when Pacquiao took on David Diaz for the WBC lightweight title and won by 9th round KO. Since then Pacquiao has looked like a new fighter he seemed fresher and stronger and more unstoppable in fights and moving up in weight.
Ariza credits the change in nutrition and training techniques as the turning point in Pacquiao’s performances. His workout, supplement and nutritional regimens are designed by a team of knowledgeable experts including Ariza himself, Teri Tom and Aundrea Macias.
“A blend of whey, soy and milk proteins, I blend everything. He started taking it right before the Diaz fight. What I give Manny runs the gamut through dairy, milk, meat, fish and poultry proteins, it runs the gamut to every different source of protein that we can. It’s very, very important to be smart about nutrition and recovery. This didn’t happen overnight. It took a long time. Manny didn’t know anything about recovery and the importance of proper nutrition.” Ariza told the Boxinginsider.
Ariza also crushes rumors spread on the internet that he is associated with BALCO the laboratory infamous for the designer steroid scandal with many famous athletes including Barry Bonds, Sugar Shane Mosley, Olympic runner Marion Jones to name a few.
“I didn’t really do any interviews before this because I didn’t feel it warranted it. But I’ve seen stories like Lou DiBella said that members of Team Pacquiao have a history of steroid use? Show me. Where’s his paperwork that leads to BALCO? I’ve worked with Diego Corrales, Erik Morales, Angel Manfredy. None of those guys has ever even tested for a diaretic, cold medication, antibiotics, nothing. I don’t give any of my fighters that would be considered illegal or a performance enhancing drug. I don’t know where people are coming up that I’m linked to BALCO. I’ve never been associated or questioned about anything.” said an irritated Ariza.

Thank you for the article!!
Ya Special blend of GNC Steroids like Roy Jones JR! go look up the list of steroids that are in over the counter supplements they had a recall.
Nice
why does the title say “Special Blend”?? ariza never even said that -_-
G
Maybe because it is a special blend he said it before in other interviews…and his special blend is over the counter steroids that are not approve by FDA.
THE REAL POWER IS COMING FROM A COCKTAIL CALLED PAPA-EETAN ELIXIR MIXED WITH ACAI BERRY.
Ariza special blend is proven to be legit! Ariza is correct its all down to pacmans training and diet change
All of these pacman haters are sickening they just dont like an asian being the best pound for pound boxer in the game.
People really hate asians just be honest its RACISM, they have always been discrediting pacman event hough pacman is a gentlemen, friendly, positive and exciting for the sport of boxing anyone who hates him is just a racist.
Knowledge is power. Idiots and dumb asses like the Mayweathers can only think of cheating the system for themselves. Senior is a convicted drug dealer, Roger is up for attempted murder, Fraud jr. is a tax cheat, he lies about his toys being paid off..lol…then he immorally deceived Marquez for their fight.
I’m actually glad that this fight is not happening. Pacquiao will continue to be number one and will keep on making millions. Fraud jr. will keep downgrading the caliber of opponents and only the nutlickers will be stupid enough to buy his boring fights.
Pacquiao won KO of the year, Fighter of The Year, Fighter of the Decade, is on the Forbes list, is on the Times cover, is one of the highest paid athletes list, and is one of the most influential person on the gloe.
Where is Fraud Jr.? NO WHERE!
JEALOUSY IS A BITCH. LMAO!
Manny pacquaio is a fraud he ducked marquez and refuses to fight anyone other than come forward fighters who lack head movement and footwork. His uncle is a Murderer his sister is a gambling cheat who has used his properties for juteng illegal numbers rackets his father is a lout he is a serial adulterer who has made one woman pregnant and then threatened to silence her and her lawyer when she wanted him to continue to pay for their child. Pacquiao was made FOTD by corrupt men who sit in offices having never laced any gloves on looking for the next Justin Bieber of boxing to make them money. Lol at your downgrading rubbish pac twit picks the same fighters but after they have been beaten idiot
Lol! Special blend. Mayweather, the best boxer ever to appear in the solar system, should walk away from Pacquiao the cheat.
I want Money to be the first boxer to subject himself to and demand for his opponents Olympic-style testing. This should be his approach from now onwards and I bet you, Pacquiao will never have fights in future without submitting to such a better test.
Human growth hormone is not detected in urine. It can can only be detected in blood within 2 days of it being administered. And with the way, Pacquiao is side-stepping on how the test should be conducted, it is obvious that he is using steroids. The test should be conducted randomly at least 6 times 1 month before the fight to come up with an accurate result.
CHANG CHING CHING CHEE, GOOK, Dog eater
Sick man of asia, CHEATER steroid user!
Oriental cambodian philipino chino pinche pendejos
you’re an idiot heck I believe pacquiao is a drug cheat too but theres no need to resort to racist idiocy. We eat cows and lambs (baby sheep) unless you’re vegetarian drop that dog eater crap
If these substances can in fact make u an excellent fighter and go up in weight that effectively, then we must have 10 7 time champions in 7 division w/c will mostly be americans. To be honest, Mayweather people is so adept in their knowledge of cycling dope that they can have Floyd on juice and avoid detection.
Probably Pacquiao is taking the combination of Ganoderna+Spinach+CoQ10. All natural. Steroids makes you stronger but gives you a weaker lungs.
Pacquiao just eat a DOG! that is he strength is dog meat and cat meat
paquiao just file a law suit, thats good. this a lesson to mayweather not to use his bigmouth with no proof. with the libel and defammation he will be paying paquiao a lot of money. he think he can run, no. floyd will be stuck with paquiao. manny will drain his money until he agree to fight him without any excuses.
Chunky gook you are such a dumb f*** racist I bet you grew up in ghetto crib where good manners never exist.
No I grew up in white area with rich family but sometime I miss the filipinnes so I eat my neighber dog and cat.
If pacquiao would give in to these blood tests, the only way he can prove
his innocence is to win against mayweather no matter what. If he lose, ppl will say “see? He took the blood test and lost. He isn’t juiced up because of it”.
It is unfair to pacquiao and he is right to take this to court.
Good job mayweather sr. You’ve just screwed up what may be the biggest fight in boxing history.
Interesting comments from different people. All we want is a better fight. I hope that RACISM will not overpower the said issue. Both are great fighters. It’s just that the people around these two people creates too much chaos. It might affect their career. Try checking this link:

As far as I know, drugs or injectibles can be detected a day or two (as an average) in your system. So to be effective, the person will inject the said steroids or enhancement drugs on that day to make it more effective right? And PACMAN agreed to take the blood test after the bout am I correct? So if he’s guilty of using it, they can definitely detect it because it still runs to his system. And this will ruin his entire career and the world of boxing might and will destrop Top Rank promotions as well. So I think taking the blood test after the fight is acceptable and I don’t understand why Mayweather’s camp is not accepting it.
the blood test after the fight is the same rule in place now so whats the difference? I could give you a link but I don’t have it at the moment but have a look on google about Mosley who use the clean and the clear and EPO injectables during training and used them during his training for the ODLH fight he admitted he used it during that fight but the test you say can catch these cheats passed him off as negative. Also Ariza has been linked to BALCO and Roach is one shady guy he gave 2 of his previous fighters (vargas and Toney) steroids when Toney was caught he said he thought it would have cycled out of his system by the time of the fight

so much is being said.. mayweather is coward everybody knows that.. but why dont you ask this question.. why isnt pacman the great taking the test but the scared mayweather is?? if the only thing standing in the middle is the test pacman should just take and stop running or making excuses not to take it… he wont be drained and no a person with tatts is not afraid of needles.. so why keep making excuses and just fight. take the dam test.. no more excuses
flyod, that is the funniest damn comment i’ve read in a long time lol
