I keep seeing people saying that if the fight doesn't happen its Team Mayweathers fault. I just want to know how anyone can think that at this moment in time?
As far as I'm aware, Mayweather has conceded to alot of Team Pacquiaos demands, including a rather ridiculous $10 million fine per pound over the weight limit. He has accomodated Pac in many aspects of the contract.
The only thing Mayweather is adamant about is the drug testing, and that it be random up to a certain cut off point - meaning it can be up to 3 days before the fight if thats what Team Pac wants. They even conceded that the organisation doing the testing can be anyone both sides agree on and not the USADA.
So how come its Mayweather who doesn't want the fight, when clearly he and his team are doing everything they can to make the fight happen, and Pacquiaos side are being very difficult to deal with, instead searching for a fight with PAULIE MALIGNAGGI??
another would be..............dont bend over ....for a senile convicted crackhead.............cant go wrong with that one:headbang:
Do you get some kind of personal enjoyment out of using the word crackhead. I guess thats your excuse why Pac shouldn't have to submit to random testing.
So add that to the worlds famous superstitions, dont walk under a ladder, crack a mirror, split the pole, or do drug testing withing 30 days of the fight.
have u ever heard the superstition that 106 lbers knocking 147 lbers are supposedly juicing?
Mind games are a part of the game. It's a mind game the moment they start talking about fighting each other. Mentally people have to be prepared for whatevers to come because if not that's when supremacy comes in.
and his backfired, and its evident he is not prepared for what just came. hes losing his $20-$40M payday. his bluff was called whereto from hereon floyd?

yea...they actually believe that.
Pac is a so called world class athlete and the so called P4P best boxer in the sport but he cant take a random drug test. See I've said it a million times already, but I just can't accept that sh-t. All he is about to become is the P4P poster boy for HGH.
So far the excuses have been.
1. Needle Phobia (no issues before, and Manny even snacks during tat work)
2. Disruptive to his training (Yet Shooting movies, preparing for concerts not an issue)
3. Will make him weak LOL.......
4. Superstitions LOL...... this one really they must have been joking...or must of been lost in translation.....
5. Manny was disrespected and will not then do the test out of principle (yet they looking at Paulie as an option LOL......)
:theyareon
Answering this question will lead to another question though. And yes what Floyd asks is unprecedented. We also know that Pac had said that he'll have psychological problem if blood is taken from him few days before the fight. Why would any man in right mind would fight if he's not 100%? Let both guy be 100% and we'll have a fair fight.
Are the psychological problems due to fear of the results? I'd say it sure appears that way.
And this comes from someone with a picture of Pac in their avatar. I say to all, would any of these Pac defenders support not taking random test if this was Zab Judah refusing random test? Or any other fighter not named Pac? So today all Pac fans have 100% faith that Nevada commission has done a fantastic job keeping the sport clean. So its obvious that Pac is above drug testing in their opinion.
yea...they actually believe that.
we should question all fights that took place in Vegas for that matter
Lets start with all the Mayweather fights...after all, they seem to know so much about the steroid community.:dance:
And today all Mayweather fans think that NASAC's testing is a joke...but they were good enough for his last fight.

Youre just not making sense, who cares what weight JMM came from, you act like Floyd didnt try to make weight, Im sure once he saw it wasnt coming off like he thought, he wasnt gonna kill himself to give Jmm his only chance, Floyd at the final presser looked weak as everyone said he looked like he had trouble making weight, and he did.
Exactly, the whole point of the catch weight was to level the advantage he had in size. You think completely shutting out JMM showed him looking weak? You think him smiling and goofing around during weigh ins, only to look shocked when they read his scale was having trouble?
I'm done, don't bother responding. You and I have different opinions on this subject and that won't change.
If it has been proven that urinalysis alone does not detect HGH and other PED's then how is Floyd requesting a better drug test not part of his negotiation rights. It aint nothing put a prick of blood. There is no way in hell that is going to alter his training. Pac is covering up, hiding, etc... 40 million biggest fight of all time, and he's fighting drug testing as if his life depends on it???? Give me a break.
Why is it only an issue now? Why is it only an issue with a fighter who is a "good little fighter" "easy fight" "has no chance in hell"? Biggest fight of all time is just another excuse, if you want this testing it should be done for all mega fights and should be required by the boxing commission, not someone who has something to gain. And since when is negotiating "fighting as if his life dpends on it?!?"

please shut it up man
you know nothing of the subject..nothing......

yet he neber has taken these test in a pro fight or had anyone else do it,, only someone blind would actually believe this is happening cause he thinks manny is on steroids..
Manny just MANS up and goes for the KO unlike Floyd...period..
There hasn't been a fight this huge in boxing for a long time though, and I think a stricter anti doping stance should be welcomed as it creates a better image of the sport which will be under international spotlight like never before.
Pac should compromise on his stance on the issue. At least negotiate a little.
i really like floyd but he is changing the rules to fit to his own agenda and take an advantage, he already has all the advantages the weight, ring, venue, size, skills but seems he want more. Why dont he just demand directly that pac both hands should be tied when they fight.
He can shoot a movie and save the Island from Hurricanes while training for Cotto but he cant take a drug test for Mayweather. F_ck Pacquiao, and I've never said that before cause I was a fan of his. But on this issue, Pac and Arum, Sh-t the F_CK Up!!
true dat.............i just see a well placed excuse.........hidden in this so called " demand"............
I would have thought that too if he didn't seem so keen on making the fight, conceding in many areas people thought he never would. IMO PBF wants this fight more than Pac.
