It turns out Filipino boxing champ Manny Pacquiao was telling the truth when he said he’d be filing a lawsuit against the Mayweather camp, including the Floyd Mayweather Jr., is father, his uncle, and Golden Boy Promotions.
Pacquiao is suing them for falsely accusing him of using performance-enhancing drugs. Pacquiao’s attorney Daniel Petrocelli told Reuters, “Mr. Pacquiao simply could not allow these false, reckless and malicious statements to go unanswered. He had no choice but to file this law suit to protect his good name and reputation which has been earned after years and years of hard work.”
The suit was filed in a federal court in Las Vegas. It asks for damages in excess of $75,000, as well as punitive damages.
In his website, Pacquiao said he’s had enough. He said he doesn’t even have an idea what steroids look like, and maintains that his success in the sport springs from hard work and not from any form of steroids.
But the real question is, is the fight going to push through amidst all these complications? Although a lot of signs are saying it’s doomed, fans all over the world are still hoping this highly anticipated match will go as planned
