Reminds me of that youtube video they did of Floyd Mayweather's Punch Out video game where it had these long sets of rules saying stuff like you have to agree to my terms like 60-40 money split and "not be in your prime" lol. Then Floyd just lands a couple punches a round to win an easy decision and the ref says that even though Floyd wins, the fans and everyone else lose.
    Exactly? No, it is false. Why do you so quickly take sides with incorrect information when these facts have been known for many years?

    Both sides agreed to enter into mediation on January 7, 2010, in hopes of coming to an agreement on the blood testing issue. Retired federal judge Daniel Weinstein, who successfully resolved a prior dispute between Top Rank and Golden Boy Promotions, would again act as mediator. Two days later, after hours of negotiating during mediation, Arum declared that the fight was officially off after Mayweather refused to agree to a 24-day cut-off date. Mayweather revealed that he offered a 14-day cut-off date to Team Pacquiao, but it was rejected.

    Leonard Ellerbe declared on January 18, that random blood and urine testing will be implemented in all of Mayweather's future fights, regardless of the opponent.

    On February 13, in an exclusive interview with David Mayo of The Grand Rapids Press, Mayweather said, "I gave him [Pacquiao] a chance, up to 14 days out. But my new terms are all the way up to the fight. They can come get us whenever, all the way up to the fight, random drug test. That's what it is."​

      He admitted that he was ready to go during the first negotiation and Pacquaio didn't sign his part of the agreement.

      Afterwards, he had not choice but to "marinate" it. Arum was too afraid to sign Pac up for the fight, and Pacquiao had taken some loses. One that was quite devastating.

        You will never get them to admit it.

        Just as you see posters bringing up Tank now that Loma ducked.

        A lot of posters like to think the boxers they like would never do what Floyd did. When they do, they can’t admit it because of all the vitriol.

        In the end, Manny got the money he wanted and lost. His fans and Floyd haters say had a better chance to win the fight in 2010. Well he ducked then.

        Then they said he had a better chance to win before the JMM ko loss. But he wouldn’t take the flat fee then he got the stitches.

        Nobody to blame but Manny and Bob.

        edit- imagine if Floyd had taken $28 mil with the bulk of the ppv instead of $40 mil flat. Then got KTFO?

          You actually don't help Pac's case by admitting that he then came back and said 14 days is fine....but this was months after Mayweather declared no cut-off dates for any of his fights immediately after the 1st negotiation collapsed.
          And just to chime in there, having a cut off date for a random drug testing protocol literally defeats the entire point of having it in the first place.

          You may as well just not have it at all if you are to implement a cut off date.

            The thing about retards is, they don't know that they're retards.

            Anthony342 falls into that category sadly.

            He's that cowardly, he won't even respond to you He just enjoys the fantasy bubble he lives in. Replying to all the posts that fit his narrative and then puts his fingers in his ears when offered facts and clarity and pretending is doesn't exist.

            Trust me, in a years time, there will be a thread exactly like this one and he'll be in there saying the same nonsense. Despite the fact he's been shown clear as day that he's objectively wrong in that he's saying.

              You are absolutely right about this. I see it all the time in the history section. To be afraid of the truth is one thing, but to spread false narratives goes too far in my opinion.

                .
                Well you just confirmed that Mayweather was moving the goal post every time Pacquiao agreed to the new demand.

                You just admitted Pacquiao agreed to the 14 day, then Mayweather changed the cutoff to zero did you not

                  Well no, he didn't agree it, until it was made clear it's off the table, then he agreed to it.

                  That doesn't help your argument, it actually hurts it.

                    Well 2009 Olympic Style Testing was rare in boxing.

                    When Pacquiao agreed to the 14 day, I thought that would seal the deal, 14 days was fair imo, but when it came out that Floyd moved it to 0 day cutoff or no fight, I knew he was scared

                      No he agreed to all the demands, not his problem that Mayweather kept moving the goalposts.

                      Guys that want to fight, they make it happen, not move the goalposts every time a demand is met
