Punch- Drunks



Not so many moons ago, Floyd Mayweather, Sr. accused P4P King Manny Pacquiao of using steroids. Now it’s Kermit Cintron’s turn to do the same. Now, two plus two doesn’t make it true especially if the accusations are coming from two people who are obviously not in their proper frame of mind.


We all know that Floyd Sr. is prone to moments of insanity because of his past dalliances in and outside the boxing ring. This includes his time in a federal penitentiary in connection with a drug smuggling conviction as well as his use of cocaine and other illegal drugs which damaged his brain. Add the poundings that he took in his unsuccessful career as a professional boxer and you will understand why it’s hard to decipher his gibberish and overt incoherence on any topic under the sun.



Kermit Cintron on the other hand is an average fighter who was pounded by Antonio Margarito in two one-sided fights. Whether those losses to the Tijuana Tornado were aided by Plaster of Paris is irrelevant. What is relevant is that Cintron was knocked out in the first fight and quit in the second. Any fighter who quits inside the ring should have his heart and head examined. There could be many underlying causes and reasons behind his surrender but it is safe to say that at this point in time, he is nothing but a shot fighter that is on the downside of his career.



“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.”


Besides, any fighter who was named after a frog and a vodka flavor should not be taken seriously if you ask me.



Seriously, lame accusations coming from these kind of people (who suffer not only from lack of credibility but authority) especially about topics like steroids are nothing but idle talk. They don’t have the smarts to know what they’re talking about nor do they have the educational background to back up their claims.

Besides, sanctioning bodies like the Nevada Athletic Commission have already issued an statement way back attesting to the fact that Manny Pacquiao had passed all the tests that they administered to him before and after each fight.

So there.
