Manny has already called every bluff the Mayweathers and Ellerbe have thrown at him. The only way they can get out of the fight now is to make it appear that Manny does not want the fight. Floyd will get out of this fight in the following manner. Most top fighters fight roughly every six months. There are good reasons for this gap between fights. Fighters take damage to their bodys in training camp and during their fights, and need at time between fights to let themselves heal and stay healthy. Floyd has been averaging about once every 18 months. Floyd fights Ortiz in September, Manny fights JMM in November. Immediately after fighting Ortiz, Floyd will say he wants to fight Manny in four months, which would be January, leaving only two months for Manny between fights. Then one of two things happens, Manny accepts the date and doesnt have a proper amount of time between fight and thereby isnt 100 percent, or he says it is too little time and doesnt take the fight and Floyd and all his fans claim Manny is ducking Floyd.
Floyd-Oscar.
The undercard was astrocious. Only 2 televised undercard fights. And, both were mismatches and both fights that on the undercard were dull. The main event was meh..
It was just a horrible card from top to bottom, only 3 fights overall. And, all 3 dull.
Whack ass PPV. It sold the most. But, whack.

Remind us which bluff Manny has already called? The last I heard, Pacquaio was still refusing to take the damn tests without a cutoff date, so Pacquaio hasn't called anything so far. Since it would take at least a month to negotiate a fight, your theory would only leave one month for the promoters to negotiate the fight and both fighters to promote the fight and prepare for it. Since there would only be one month to fight time, there could be no 24/7 program, and if there is no 24/7 program, there would be fewer PPV buys, which means that Mayweather would earn a fraction of what he would normally make on a percentage of the PPVs.
Your theory makes a hell of a lot of sense!:bsflag:
that's what i've been telling these guys. his recent take about this fight is clear as day. he's still talking about drug testing when it is no longer an issue. that's not the picture of a guy who is dying to beat the crap out of the pacman. the biggest obvious sign is he is not interested in the money. he knows asking for more money will even put him in a more uncompromising situation. so this ost thing is the safer and relatively harmless excuse.
:bigeyes:
Am not sure what Floyd's tactic will use next since we still haven't seen Pac call Floyd on it.
However we seen Floyd call on all of Pac's bluffs.
Pac:I will only fight with 8ozers even thought the fight calls for 10 ozers.(heheheheh....Floyd won't accept cause he has britter hands and he knows the 8 ozers benefit me.)
Floyd:sure no problem.
Pac: (Fu(k he accepted the 8 ozers. Maybe if I ask for a bigger share, but then that won't work cause it would look bad since he draws more buys and would be to obvious even to my nuthuggers. Maybe if I ask for a 50/50 it won't look to bad and my idiot fans will think is fair cause my fans can't do math and figure out that 50/50 isn't fair still cause records show Floyd whoops me in generating revenue.) am 50/50 split or no fight.
Floyd:Sure.Even thought records show am the bigger draw. I will still accept a 50/50 split just to make the fight.
Pac: (Dang Floyd accepted that too!!**** I better think of something fast cause his not backing out. Oh I got it. I will try and scare him off with a penalty feel) Ten million dollar penalty for each pound over or no fight.
Floyd: Ok I will accept.
Pac:(Son of a *****. This mofo really wants this fight and knows am roiding. Wait I got it I will tell him I can't do the OST because I can't be tested on the day of the fight because it henders my condition) I don't want OST because I don't want to be tested on the day of the fight.
Floyd: Ok we can have a 14 day cut off so we can insure you won't be tested on the day of the fight.
Pac: (SON OF A *****!!) aaaaa mmmmm....fu(k it no fight. Am suing......

Except the one to take the test.
:ugh: Team Pac wanted the March date because he was running for Congress in May.....
Exactly, amnesia is a ***** aint it? After Mayweather accepted March, they claimed it was too soon because he wasn't heal properly from Cotto'S fight only to know they already had Clottey lined up.
why no just accept the damn ost's with no cutt offs?why is this a issue?
You don't understand. You see, Pacquiao status is not like Mosley and Ortiz who will accept any kind of OST, even OST for gay. Pacquiao is more accomplished than Floyd and it is all about a pride thing but then Pac finally agreed for the fans sake not because Floyd said so.
Lets see how well floyd handles Ortiz first, but it seems Floydis resigned to the fact of facing Pac after Ortiz. Pac has agreed to everything just about now
why no just accept the damn ost's with no cutt offs?why is this a issue?
nO REASON FOR THE FIGHT NOT TO HAPPEN... THEY ARE TRYING TO COME UP WITH A GAME PLAN TO BEAT MAYWEATHER .. WATCHING FIGHTS AND STUDYING.
Come to the real world my idiot friend. May 5th, 2012 is the date.
lmao.... YOUR PICTURE WITH THE LIL KID IS HILARIOUS... AWW MAN. SO FUNNY. I HAD TO STEAL IT.
Come to the real world my idiot friend. May 5th, 2012 is the date.
All of Floyd's bluff? I pretty sure you just want attention. Floyd has only one demand and that is for he and Manny undergo OST with no cut-off. That my friend has been the only consistency in this saga.
Yea all I really wanted to to make some friends. And to get attention.
Floyd invented his own OST and asking for it is the mean reason why this fight failed. You don't tell me he asked for it all of the sudden but not in his last 40 fights because he wants to clean the sport and he wants a clean fight bullsh!t! He saw something on Pacquiao that is why he asked for OST. He scared this something will beat him and thought he was right about that, so he will never never fight Pacquiao. And him taking OST in his fights, don't tell me he wants to set a good example bullsh!t. He was doing it just to save his face. lol!
Interesting scenario. Didn't Mayweather already try a tactic like this for insisting to fight in mid-March in the post-Cotto negotiations? I clearly remember Roach saying he hoped for a date in May and that March was very quick after a tough battle with Cotto. Once Pacquiao accepted the mid-March date, then Mayweather moved on to literally taking Pacquiao's blood.
:ugh: Team Pac wanted the March date because he was running for Congress in May.....
The latest excuse from Fanny Pack is admitting himself into the hospital for assid refux. Now we why ...

The only test that both fighters need to do is to fight each other and everything else is irrelevant. Don't really give a fuck about purse, mental advantage, etc...
Just fucking fight...
Not sure if serious.
But, Pac hasn't called Floyd bluff yet. Floyd is asking for random OST without cutoff. Last contract Pac sent had a 14 day cutoff.
And, furthermore Pac team has made up a silly notion that the USADA is corrupt :lol1:
If anybody doesn't want the fight. It's seems that it's Pac side.

The thing is that both sides really aren't ducking the other, rather they are capitalizing off their name, and the potential of them fighting each other, as much as possible.
Both sides are taking as many 25-40 million fights as possible and will face each other if:
A. There are no big money fights left
B. They feel they are exiting their prime and don't want to face the other if they have lost something.
Sucks for the fans, but the politics and business side of boxing kinda forces both teams to go that route.
