first of all.... Everyone is speaking off of hear say, no one from Floyd or Manny camp have come out and confirmed that Floyd wants more money now Second of all.... Your argument is flawed because, though Clottey-Pac didn't have a 24/7 you can go back to the Cotto fight and Floyd still out sold that one as well And lastely.... Floyd has always made it quite clear that he's all about the business and money and cares very little about legacy so he has the higher ppv numbers and history so of course he's gonna try to maximize his funds... Soo if Manny is all about legacy like how some people claim then Floyd wanting more money wouldn't effect the negotiations at all and Manny would comply... But the fact is Manny cares about the money just as much as Floyd does if all manny cared about was money, than he wouldve ran into the ring with floyd back in march..no matter how much blood testing was involved.. and if floyd really wanted to fight manny, he wouldn't be setting up obstacle after obstacle for manny to overcome and agree to.. its clear as day that pac WANTS to fight floyd..otherwise he wouldn't have gone from no blood testing to 30 days to 24 days to 14 days to anyday BUT the day of the fight..its called compromising, and pac is the ONLY one doing any compromising and showing the world that he wants the fight more than floyd does..if floyd wanted the fight he would've gave in to pac..even just a little..and i'm pretty sure "pacROID" (according to floyd fans) would never agree to get tested that close to the fight if he was cheating.. but all the compromising that pac does will never show the floyd fans how much he wants the fight..people are just brainwashed i guess..

when will people learn that NOTHING IS UP TO FREDDIE ROACH... HE DOESN'T NEGOTIATE SH*T... So him saying this means just as much as me saying it and words from mayweather sr and roger mayweather are like words from a messiah? seems to be that way, seeing as everyone jumped the gun and is accusing pac of juicing ..

all i wanna say is this..if floyd wants the fight than compromise..pacquiao is compromising, so why not floyd? pac went from no blood testing to 30 days to 24 days to 14 days to any day (as long as its not the day of)..he's doing ALOT of compromising, for someone who floyd fans say doesn't want to fight floyd..there's been NO budging at all with mayweather...nothing but added demands..now floyd wants a bigger purse..hmm? if floyd really wants pacquiao to agree to fight him, why not offer 60-40 to whoever wins?

this is an unbiased opinion..i think pacquiao would come out victorious against mayweather. we all know mayweather has great defense and is an accurate counter puncher. but we also know he can get hit and his chin is very questionable (2nd round mosley). we all know pacquiao is quick, throws a flurry of punches and can take a beating by bigger men. but we know he's very vulnerable to getting hit. the thing is pacquiao has been hit by fighters stronger than floyd (cotto, clottey, margarito) and hasn't fallen..he takes the beating and keeps on truckin..we've even seen him unleash successful combinations AFTER his opponent has hit him.. so if you were to put it into perspective of a mayweather-pacquiao fight, yes pacquiao will come forward, yes mayweather will dodge, yes mayweather will counter...BUTTTT pacquiao will NOT drop, WILL attack and mayweather WILL eventually get hit by a combination of HARD punches by pacquiao..and seeing how mosley almost knocked him down (mosley being a guy with an 1/4 of the stamina as pacquiao) pac MAY even make floyd hit the canvas..

wow. i'm a pac fan and if deals don't get made with a mayweather fight, than fight marquez or berto..not an old shane mosley.. either way pac haters will have something to say about who he fights..if he fights marquez and wins, they'll say he still hasn't fought a slick black fighter and/or marquez is old/past his prime..if he fights berto and wins, they'll say he wasn't a big name..if he fights mosley (which it sounds like he's going to), they'll say he came off a mayweather defeat, a draw against mora, past his prime, and hand picked.. bottom line..if he fights mosley, i ain't watching it..i kno styles make fights but mosley doesn't have the stamina to go head to head with pac..obviously the mayweather would be my top choice, than marquez next, than berto, if worse comes to worse..all respect to mosley, but if he fights pac, i'm pretty sure he'll get sent into retirement.

I'm not saying floyds scared but one is to question it. First off, like people said, he hasn't requested testing likethis with zab, jmm, odlh, hatton, etc. So why start with PAC? Second, for march he had the testing capped off at 14 days to 'clean the sport up'. PAC didn't wanna play by floyds rules so the fight didn't happen. After watching mosley/may PAC agreed to 14 days n now may wants testing til the fight. If he was so concerned about cleaning up the sport, why offer the 14 days to bein with? If it was good enough for him in January, why not now? And he's changing his demands and using the may/mosley fight as leverage, saying he can call the shots cuz he sold more than PAC/clottey. That's not cleaning up the sport, that's called being a picky little b!tch. And don't forget that may and mosley have huge fanbases. Clottey doesn't. Majority of the people at PAC/clottey were PAC fans. Third, it's not that PAC is running from a 40 mil payday. It's the fact that his dignity is on the line. If he agrees to Floyds terms than Floyd has the upper hand. Another thing people dont realize is his career is on the line for this 40 mil paycheque and it's all cuz of something he's uncomfortable doing (blood test) fourth, he knows PAC won't agree to a smaller purse, but yet he demands it now. it's funny cuz Floyd is KNOWN for his prefight hype and known to want the upper hand in fights.he's know for mind games n known for talking trash. But people jump on his nuts And believe everything he says n does, just because he's a good boxer. I respect him for his skills, but this is all prefight hype to make his name look good. I don't respect him cuz he's pulling down pacs name wen all PAC wanted was to fight him. I like both pac n Floyd but I do side with PAC cuz I really don't agree with all of floyds demands n motives.
