They can't agree to the drug testing thing.
Because both fighters know it's the biggest fight of both their lives.
both fighters want to be ready mentally as well as physically.
Mayweather wants peace of mind. So He wants random drug testing, He ain't scared or anything. He just wants to have peace of mind for the biggest fight of his career. And this is the best fight for him money wise. And he is ''Money Mayweather'' right?.
and Manny's side.
Pacquiao has this mental thing that he feels uncomfortable or as He says ''weaker'' when blood is taken. So He feels He isn't 100%. So He won't have peace of mind and not be ready mentally. And when your head isn't right, you won't train right. So if He agrees to the testing, that's giving Mayweather the clear advantage, because Mayweather will have His peace of mind. But Pac won't.
And the other way around if Floyd agrees to drop testing He will feel uneasy. And won't have peace of mind, giving Pacquiao the advantage.
So there's a big problem here.
The solution?.
They can't agree on a cut off date.
So why don't they agree on how many times random testing will take place. Again not WHEN but HOW MANY TIMES RANDOMLY.
so all they have to agree about is how many times. It is still random, but maybe they can negotiate how many times. But still at random..
anyone agree with me?:boxing:

Don't force a fighter who doesn't want to fight. Pacquiao seems to be more than willing to take challenges from bigger guys. Mayweather despite his size, reach and supposed skill advantage against a "one-dimensional fighter" is unwilling to agree on a damn cut-off? The additional bloodtesting isn't even supposed to be there in the first place!
This would be the biggest fight in the last 20 years all eyes would be on the fighter and what they would be doing, you have media coverage 24/7, now who in their right mind would waste time and money and risk cancellation of this big fight not to mention risk being humiliated in global media for being caught cheating?

this is what all the drug testing and other duck moves has been about for pbf IMO...i agree.
too late to save it.
maybe later in the year.
i've done a 180 on this.
at first i thought arum wanted the fight and manny was the problem.
not anymore.
after the dallas site wasn't even considered by gbp , i don't think arum wanted it anymore.
i think arum had planned dallas all along. probably promised jerry jones it'll be in dallas.
when gbp wouldn't even consider it.......i think it was a slap to arum's face.
But later in the year, They could use this kind of compromise to make it finally happen.
