I have been thinking about this recently. When he came out and criticized Floyd, I wasn't even a real Floyd fan at the time, but I knew the guy was talking serious BS. However, it ended up being a good thing because it pissed off and inspired Floyd to take on Mosley, enhance his legacy and put on one of the best performances of his career in the process. After all the kind of things he was saying about Floyd, I wonder why he hasn't said anything criticial about Pacquiao. He seems like a serious hypocrite to me, because there are loads of questions that I feel need to be asked of Manny.
Such as....
Questions :
1. Why won't you take the test? Why are you scared of taking the test?
2. How come everyone you fight is either coming off a brutal loss or has to drain themself down to a catchweight, or both? Why do you have to make people come down to catchweights? Why can't you just let them fight at their natural weight?
3. So if Morales, Cotto and Margarito all have to come down in weight to fight you, why won't you go up in weight to fight Sergio Martinez? He would gladly come down to 154 to fight you.
4. Why won't you fight Floyd Mayweather? Why are you scared of him?
5. Why are all your opponents hand-picked by Bob Arum. Why not just fight the best?
6. You said you fight for the fans. So why won't you take the test and fight Floyd Mayweather for the fans? That's the fight that the fans want more than any other.
Comments :
1. Floyd Mayweather would spank your ass Manny. Floyd Mayweather would spank your ass!
2. I think the world wants to see you fight the best fighters at the real weight classes.
3. Mayweather whooped Marquez's ass way better than you did, and Mayweather whooped Mosley's ass way better than you did.
Why isn't he saying these kind of things? Is it because he's a hypocrite or a pactard and simply knows nothing about boxing? I suspect it is one of those three. Because I want the answers to these questions. The guy claims to have been watching boxing since the days of Larry Holmes, so if a 17 year old like me, who's only been into the sport since 2007 can spot these things, surely he can too, right? I guess not. It's abit of a shame really, because if something like that did happen, it might have had the same effect on Pacquiao that it had on Floyd. He might have actually stepped up and took the test!
For the sake of clarity, when did this happen? I have been lately hearing about this but I don't remember Team Mayweather admitting that drug testing was no longer an issue. I remember Bob Arum stating that drug testing is no longer an issue, but Team Mayweather specifically never stated that the drug testing issue had been resolved.
You're dealing with a revisionist and spin doctor. Notice how no link with a legit source is provided to back up his claims.
Those are great questions to ask, except that Manny is limited to what he can and cannot say regarding that fight. So you'll likely not get a straight answer.He's like the Sarah Palin of boxing. Only remembering the talking points defined by his handlers.
later mayweather admitted that drug testing was no longer an issue.For the sake of clarity, when did this happen?

You can bet the answers to those questions have already been answered in your mind. What you suspect is the right answer.
first of all hbo exec greenburg said that he didn't know why mayweather turned down the pacquiao fight. later mayweather admitted that drug testing was no longer an issue. so i don't know why you dumb flomos are still into this zhit.
second of all, floyd never leave no leftovers. most of his opponents are beaten via boring ud's. they can even fight the next day. in contrast, pac sends his opponents into retirement and long-term injuries. dunno why you dumb flomos keep repeating this leftover nonsense. you talk as if your idol massacres his opponents. what a bunch of clowns these idiots are.
third of all, why would you want an extensive test to a one dimensional fighter who fought nothing but weight-drained fighters? does that sound logical?
keep on embarrassing yourselves.
you can put me on ignore now.
hes too busy being a fail rapper and worry about zero album sales. Nick Cannon sol dmore album thanhim
Pretty much this. Nobody gives a sh!t about what he has to say about anything.
