Comments Thread For: Mayweather vs. Pacquiao: Top Rank Makes Final Offer

[The Gambler1981]

He had to say yes because it was a demand placed on him and fighting a demand like this makes him look bad.

That is why he had to say yes, and saying no lead to this whole ordeal, if you want to blame someone for this mess blame Manny for failing to jsut say yes and clear any doubt.

Instead he only raised more doubt~

Manny's *******s are pathetic little wenches!!

Arum doesn't want blood testing at all. Anybody who doesn't see something wrong with that is in serious denial.

Co-Sign Calilloyd, it doesn't take a rocket science to know what's going on here. Manny has been getting away with using PEDS in the past and now people are on to him; so he doesn't want anything to do with blood tests because they will show the real deal. Within a 3 day period is when the testing should be done before the fight. Just saying!

And your point is what? Mayweather has already accepted a stringent drug test to show the world he is clean. Whats Manny doing? He is comming up with every excuse in the book as to why he shouldn't take the stringent random drug test.

Yes, Mayweather accepted to his wish to have himself tested.
And accused the other fighter of using PEDs if this wish was not granted.

BTW, this wish is outside the rules and regs of boxing.

Why should he say no?

Cuz is not required of him, cuz we are singling him out, cuz we being unfair, and really we are being prejudice. This man has never ever failed a drug test or been linked to any drug company. So why ask him? How fair is that? That is why I have no problem with him saying no. Would I love him to take the test? Sure of course I would. But, I understand the other side of the argument.

top rank's bob arum has made a final counter-offer to save the march 13 fight between manny pacquiao and floyd mayweather jr. If golden boy promotions does not accept his counter, he plans to move forward with finalizing a deal to have former junior welterweight champion paulie malignaggi step in as the replacement for mayweather on the march date. Arum has give golden boy a monday deadline. [click here to read more]

Floyd Sr had been accusing Pac for how long now? Before the Cotto fight. If team Mayweather felt so strongly about this. They should went to the commission and plead there case right after the Marquez. They could of had enough time for the commission to implement blood testing protocols.

That would have made no sense if they were not certain the fight with Manny was going to take place and Arum agreed to start the negotuations for it.

The reason we now know about the Olympic-style testing is because it was written into the contract and Team Pacquiao said Ok we can work with that.

Mindbat have all the sensible points to speak of when it comes to drug-abuse insinuations. But every single one of them were outside of the territory of the rules and regulations of boxing in Nevada State.

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to point out.

Do you mean they have no validity outside the state of Nevada?

pleeeeeease pac man take this fight and whoop ***** :d

Yes please, i beg you. Show everyone you clean and come try and kick Mayweather's ass. That's all anyone here wants.

This is what should of been done in the first place. I always said GBP/Mayweather camp went at it the wrong way. They should of never demanded a blood test from Top Rank/Pac team. From the start they should of went at the commission. Have them make it a mandatory. And, we would not be in this mess.

It was already put out there and the commission has stated that they cannot change there mandate in the time frame , its like changing or adding a new law into congress it has steps of procedure , the Nevada commission cannot tell them to have a blood test without it being mandated in their rules , Arum knows this that is why he is saying let them decide because they cant change it and they dont require blood , something very fishy about Manny in this .

I will not lift a finger to watch Pauli fight Pac , definitely wont buy it as it is a total gimme fight with absolutely zero appeal .

It is required of him to make the fight happean, athletes can cheat and have been known to game the system.

Marion Jones never failed a drug test, Shane Mosley never failed a drug test.


All he needed top do was say yes tot his demand and the fight was made instead he made a big deal about it, that raises a red flag.

The other side of the arguement is what the MLBPA made for years and years fighting drug testing, sorry but I do not need to listen to that arguement again.
