Reading (mis)comprehension and the Pacquiao-Mayweather soap opera

I've recently written articles regarding the ongoing soap opera surrounding the potential Mayweather vs. Pacquiao mega-fight.

My only intentions were to encourage reasonable discussion and provide pertinent information regarding the limitations of the current testing methods for banned substances and PED's in sports.

Once again, shame on me. Whatever happened to reading comprehension? They don't teach that in public school anymore?

I truly hope that the fight still happens and I believe that there are millions of reasons (mostly dollars) why it will.

I have absolutely no reason to believe that either fighter takes PED's or any other banned substance.

I also believe that the outcome of the fight is a toss up. Floyd has more technical ability but NO ONE on the planet brings more heart and fight to the ring than Manny.

I just hope that whatever the outcome the fight is so spectacular that we all want to see them do it again.
