Pacquiao files defamation lawsuit against Mayweathers and Golden Boy
On Wednesday Manny Pacquiao filed a lawsuit in Nevada federal court against Floyd Mayweather, Jr., Floyd Mayweather, Sr., Roger Mayweather, Mayweather Promotions, LLC, and Golden Boy Promotions executives Oscar de la Hoya, and Richard Schaefer for allegedly making false and defamatory statements accusing Pacquiao of taking performance-enhancing drugs, and seeks compensatory and punitive damages for defendants’ wrongful conduct.
Pacquiao’s attorney, Dan Petrocelli, said his client could be out millions of dollars if boxing fans 
believe he used steroids or human growth hormone to win titles in seven weight classes.
“The damage to his reputation and lost business opportunities could be in the tens of millions of dollars,” stated Daniel Petrocelli of the Los Angeles-based law firm of O’Melveny & Myers LLP.
Pacquiao claimed in the suit that he has never tested positive for any performance-enhancing drugs, but that Mayweather, his father and uncle, Oscar De La Hoya and Golden Boy Promotions chief Richard Schaefer embarked on a campaign to make people think he used drugs.
“The truth did not stop Mayweather and the others,” the suit contends. “That is because they are motivated by ill will, spite, malice, revenge and envy.” Petrocelli concluded.
I don’t know about you, but this whole Mayweather vs. Pacquiao drama is becoming annoying and I’m at a point that I don’t care if this fight happens or not and for Manny going as far as filing a lawsuit, it says a lot about him. I think he will lose more fans this way meanwhile Floyd Mayweather hasn’t stopped training and by the looks of this video that TMZ captured during a sparing session, Mayweather looks awesome.
Thanks TMZ for this rare video as cameras are never allowed during his sparring sessions, at least not on 24/7.
Damn if Pacman has nothing to hide he should take the random blood test and proof that he isn’t taking any drugs or any kind of illegal substance.

My friend ,I was called the N word by Manny’s fans and I didn’t even talk about race .I just
asked why Manny doesn’t wanna take a random blood test during the month before the fight.
we as boxing fans ,we have the right to ask questions,but I do not know why Manny’s fans
keep on bringing the race issue to the subject .
Manny’s fans stop taliking a bout race this is
boxing and people have the right to ask questions since Manny is refusing to get a random blood test during the last month of the fight.
Hey! those peoples accusing pacman smash of cheating the worlds of boxing is big shit to this arena… they were victims of manipulation tactic by the family of mayweather with co conspiracy oscar dela hoya… pacman will never do that and his the pride of the pilipino peoples, but we the fans of the pacman smash wil not tolerate this situation but still we will show to the worlds that we stand to common ground with other’s and wholeness of us by restoring peace to all peoples in boxing worlds even with the detractor one…
The bottom line if Manny doesn’t comply with the random blood test which include the month before the fight ,Manny’s legacy is gone before
thousands of Boxing fans .
Maywethear is willing WILLING to take the same
test so please manny’s fans let’s keep it real who is not willing to randomize the blood test which can detect all type of steriods
Why Manny’s fans are the only one who has a
problem with manny getting tested a month before the fight.All boxing fans want Both fighters to get tested to end up with a fair fight.
Why Phillipinos are racist I got called the N word
numerous times and I didn’t even talked about race. WOW now I know what’s behind this fake smile of the Pilipino people ,that is cool good this fight came up to know people more and what they all are about.
Shame on you Manny you have cheated all the boxing fans .As a boxing fan, I think Manny needs to hange his gloves and begin his own dancing show.
steriods and Boxing doesn’t mix Manny just go to your temple and ask god for forgiveness
and ask him to revive your sexual performance
because it was affected by the steriods you have taken.
Manny lost a lot of respect from his fans world
wide by not submitting to the random blood test
it’s obvious that the guy is on steriods and I do not care about him getting tested in his country
come on like if you can not bribe someone to
Swap his blood specimen with someone’s else
Manny is wasting time to clean his system from
steriods that can be detected by bloc test ,he is temoprizing to give time to his body to get cleaned from the steriods.
Manny you got all the $$ to come to the state and get tested with a legitimate institution ,but no Mr.manny chose to get tested in his country and the specimen is going to China !!!! Because his country doesn’t has the proper equipment Bla
blah blah blah blah .
then Manny filed a lawsuit to play down the core of the subject which is the Blood test a random one and in the USA not China or his country .
if Manny is a real man and an honest boxer he
needed to get tested immediately after Maywethear Sr accusations and as we know he did not which means that he is a cheater who lost the respect from all boxing fans .

YOU’RE KIDDING ME? For a public figure… protecting and clearing yourself from an allegation is an obligation! No wonder you’re stock up in this realm- save your opinion to yourself! BTW, how much did the Golden Boy Production pays you? LMAO!
Ha ha ha. This writer is a joke. Without doubt he is a massive fan of gayweather or a bias black man. Which says alot about himself.
Nice to hear that pacman smash rightfully decided to pursue a law suit agains them…
That what you call a frivolous lawsuit and it will be rebuffed by the judge
good on the Pac man for standing up to the Mayweathers and Golden boy promotions for their accusations..Sounds like too many peas in the pie in the Mayweather camp
I can,t see any reason why Manny would use drugs of any kind,,He will most probably make more money taking Roger and his cronies to court than he will make in fighting him
Just hope that everything sorts itself out and the fight will take place
