Except for Pacquiao?
Cotto said he would take them.
Berto said he would take them.
Mosley took them.
Martinez said he would gladly take them up to the day of the fight.
Malignaggi said he has nothing to hide and would take them.
Bradley said he has no problem taking OST's up to the fight.
All the Elite fighters have no problem taking the Olympic Style Drug tests up to the fight. Why is Pacquiao not in this list? Why does he refuse to take the tests up to the day of the fight like all of these other fighters?
How is it wrong when the topic was never "since the drug testing issue became as big as it has"
When you know full well plenty of fighters have expressed willingness to fight pacquiao without any additional tests since the drug testing issue became an issue at all
Ok, grasp at straws. You and I both know hardly anyone expected Pac of drug use before he turned down the 14 day cutoff, and released a multitude of excuses and contradictions as to why he couldn't be tested. This was all after any of the links you posted, which wasn't any more than one. Now that suspicions of Pacs potential doping has increased, not a single one of the fighters the TS mentioned claimed they'd fight PAC without OST.
You were wrong.
Who is he going to fight next to make 40mil?
Martinez? Williams? Who?
I don't know, but you implied both were damn fools for walking away from a potential $40million paycheck. Obviously Floyd wasn't, as he made $40million+ fighting another opponent.
every other fighters agree to undergo osdt to fight floyd as everyones wants to cash in on the fight, they are not thinking of winning the fight but to earn their biggest payday. its not really cleaning up the sport that floyd had initially started and made relevant. what he had implanted on the minds of fighters today is boxing is all about money money money nothing more nothing less. no legacy, no greatness, hel with all those as long as money will keep on pouring that also goes to the fans, nobody will care whether the fans are entertained or they got their moneys worth, boxing will be synonimous with robbery.
Fact is, you were wrong; And to my knowledge, no fighter other than Williams and Margarito, who the TS never mentioned, has spoken about fighting Pac without the OST's. Not since the drug testing issue became as big as it has.

Well if your stance rests upon the fact that mayweather pacquiao negotiations fell apart initially then this whole argument is irrelevant then because the fact is nobody wants to see either fighter fight anyone else besides each other anymore and will not let either side make excuses for not making the fight happen this time around.

I think ur titled has it naild: Why does every fighter say they will take all the tests Floyd wants up to the fight
its like Pac saying floyd will HAVE to fight in an 18ft ring with 8oz reyes gloves on.
sure, tons of fighters might agree to it but it doesnt make it an acceptable demand for THE two best fighters on the face of earth.
Both before the Mayweather-Pacquiao fall out, and most definitely before people actually began suspecting Pac of actually being on something.
Cotto himself already said Pacs refusal to take test raises questions, and that was before the issue blew into the phenomena it is now.

Cotto on the list obviously already fought pacquiao without any additional tests.
Mosley was very public in his willingness to fight pacquiao without any extra tests.

So, manny is saying that he doesn't trust the Commission to enforce the rules...right?
No I beleive Floyd is saying he doesnt trust the comission by making this ridiculous demand which is not required by the comission and is holding up this fight and based on no proof. Its kinda funny how you never heard anyone say anything about Manny using PED'd before Floyd Sr. I wasn't aware that he was a doctor to make that type of determination, and I don't want to hear Floyd is trying to clean up the sport because he sure wasn't to concerned with it 40 fights prior. This was a calculated move by the Mayweather camp to try and slander Pacquiao's name and discredit him at a time he was on top. What's really sad is that Mayweather Sr of all people made this ridiculous allegation with no proof and some people actually bought inot it.
On second thought maybe Flod Sr is really smart and the people are really stupid, because the people did exactly what the mayweather camp wanted by running his mouth with this nonsense some people bought into it and they started this contreversy which is ruining the possibility of this fight.
That was 5 months ago, before the Mayweather-Pacquiao negotiations fell through. Before the drama and continual contradictory excuses from Team Pac. Before the public began siding with Mayweathers stance, but thank you.
That's one, where are the rest?

You obviously aren't aware of the basic fundamentals of debate. It isn't my prerogative to support your claims, it's yours.
Don't make claims if you can't support them. Until you can actually support what you say, your claims are meaningless.
