Bob Arum: Blames Schaefer and "that creep Oscar" for poisoning Mayweather-Pacquiao

[PrettyBoy22]

Bob Arum will kill these negotitations if they happen 6 months down the line. Knowing that clown he'll claim "due to the damage done to Team Pacquiao in the December blood testing rows we want 60-40 no less"

Now why would the Mayweathers and GoldenGay want the tests before the fight I wonder?

pac having that 30 day cutoff is what bothers me. when mayweather and GBP backed off of USADA doing the tests, just as long as they got done randomly, that told me they were willing to bend. but the 30 day window, i dont know. i really dont know what to say or think about that.

Pac camp said they are willing to under go blood test right after the fight. What can you find before the fight that you cant find right after the fight???

You don't need a genius to figure this out. Someone wants a way out.

I'm tired of hearing that if Pac has nothing to hide then he should take the test. **** that ****!!!!!!! Mayweather aint the ****ing commission. He has never asked anybody else to take random blood tests. Rules are rules. The fights in Nevada and they should go by the rules of the Nevada commission. That's how its done and thats how its always been done. If you dont like take it up with the commission and state your case. Unless you don't have a case and this is just a ploy to get out of the fight. Quit being a ***** Floyd!! SKILLS PAY THE BILLS!!! Remember

Take the test if you're clean. Bottom line.

fight MP like he fought the other guys in his resume...

thats the real bottom line...

If a boxer uses peds he will use it during training and come off them at least a week before the fight. Come fight night they wont be in his system but he will have all the physical benefits of training while using them. Last week Team Pac had no problem with the testing now they are talking about 30 day cut off points.

Pac can do what he wants. If Floyd's team aren't happy then they can walk away. Floyd will never make as much money from another fight out there, and all the other welters are damn big. This is a big pay lost for both teams, sadly we will miss out on the biggest fight of the decade and it was gonna boost boxing to the mainstream for sure, but if they don't trust him and want more tests, and Pac doesn't want to, then that's a demand that has been too far.

BA: "I think there should be more pre-fight testing with urine analysis, but our doctors and experts tell us that every single thing that can be picked up in blood, is better picked up in urine analysis. The only reason they do the blood after the guy competes is because they freeze the blood and it stays good for eight years, the urine decomposes after a while. If they want to take blood after the fight, if they want to freeze it fine, who gives a ****? But that's why there's no blood testing until after the competition at the Olympics and that's something this scumbag never said."


'am not a medical expert, but it looks like a blood test is not necessary. please, somebody explain this to floyd's team so that they'll stop b*tching on this drug testing. MAKE THE DAMN FIGHT HAPPEN!!!

[p4p-champ]

Bob arum is one smiley, lying sack of ****.

Floyd is giving up the same thing, then. And to think Pac would still be taking a lot of blood and urine tests including directly after.

What did they want to accomplish?

If Manny is dirty, then you could say they are going to make him fight fair and thus diminish him and help Floyd's chances greatly, assuming he is 1)dirty and 2)they can catch it and thus stop Pac from using

When you look into the situation, all the evidence points to Pac being clean as a whistle, so in all likelihood he isn't dirty. Which leaves us with the idea that Floyd and team are trying to mess with Manny's head to gain an advantage that way, rattle his cage and possibly also promote the fight at the same time, even negative publicity is good publicity...but if that is the case, they would agree to Arum's final offer. Rattling and publicity accomplished.

Floyd has stated how easy a fight Pacquiao would be for him. You would think he would jump at the huge huge huge payday if that was the case, steroids or no steroids.... and steroids when? If they are taking his blood at the press conference, 30 days away and then again after the fight, and his piss as much as they want, the scenario that Pac is using roids becomes more and more hypothetical.

So did Floyd really want this fight? Combine this fight with the second Oscar fight and Floyd has blown off what? Fifty, sixty million dollars? Add to that the fights he missed while he was off and you could say he lost eighty million dollars.

Does Floyd just not want to look like he is running, so he is trying to make the negotiations difficult so when he bows out he can save face?

I honestly don't know. To me though, I think Floyd is somewhat afraid of losing to Pacquiao no matter the cash, its hard to say....will he really go fight Mathew Hatton? That would be unbelievable if he did.

It seems Floyd has to make this fight if he is as cash poor as many think. Or if not cash poor, has tons of bills. Pretty much the whole welterweight division is dangerous for him and way less money involved so he has to make this fight.....maybe he is more afraid of simply losing maybe he fears he will take a terrible beating, a KO loss........

I mean, if he REALLY thought he could kick Manny's ass you would think he would take the fight. I know some will say that about Manny, but I think Manny doesn't want his blood ****** out so close to the fight and randomly and that is sapps him in those precious final weeks when he is preparing his hardest, a huge distraction, but more than this Arum sees a relationship between Schaefer and the org Shaef wants to use.

I'm laughing because we already know Manny is willing to fight a guy like Cotto.....lets see who Floyd fights........

NICE POST!
