Despite beating Manny in every facet as the bigger draw (even if it's slightly)...
He submitted to 50/50 pay, 147, puncher's gloves, and an unprecedented (and even ridiculous) 10 million per pound weight violation penalty. You would think he was the no name B-side the way he's got nothing he wanted in this apparently 1 sided negotiation process.
Floyd asks for 1 thing, 1 thing (to rule out any cheating due to cycling PEDs which happens to also be unprecedented) and we hear the biggest crybaby excuses I've ever heard right up there with, "toothaches", and "..we played basketball together."
Superstition? Fear of needles? "No, It will weaken my fighter!" (like Floyd won't be under the same scrutiny)
Are you kidding me?!
That's all it takes to send Manny and Freddie Roach running for cover? A black cat, a shattered mirror, and a Friday on the wrong day of the month?
GTFOH!
I hope the Mayweather's hammer this juicing scandal into the ground now.
I don't even really like Floyd and I can see through this fake indignation by Top Rank and Team Pac.
I hope they go out on an all out assault in the media. A fight of this magnitude, with this kind of revenue on the table not going down because of fear of random blood testing to satisfy the pros and the public on the doping issue... SMDH.
Floyd made no concessions :haha:
147 is WW, WW's fight with 8oz gloves, and the fight doesn't happen without 50/50. $10 million for coming over 147 is no demand. Floyd came in at 146 his last fight.
Floyd hasn't conceded anything. Thats what he wanted all along, bar the $10 million penalty, but he knows that's not gonna affect him.
What Floyd is demanding is unnecessary blood tests based off speculation from a crack addict. Why should Manny give in to such ridiculous demands? He'd be spitting in the face of the NSAC.
Again. GTFOH. Floyd preferred some leeway with the weight he comes in at and countered with the close to fight random blood testing over the crazy weight penalty Team Pac wanted.
And these are concessions that were made. If Floyd didn't agree to any of this the fight wouldn't have been on the table for as long as it has.
They were threating to pull out over anything that wasn't at least 50/50 as well.

Mannys terms have been reasonable.
-he's been boxing with 8oz his whole career
-Floyd HAS INTENTIONALLY CHEATED before, 10 million per lb will assure he wont do it again.
Besides all the testing Manny has already accepted, Floyd now wants blood drawn the same day of the fight. Who the **** has ever heard of that before?
