Comments Thread For: Mayweather's Adviser Thinks Pacquiao Will Cave, Take Tests

[Mr. Chago]

The problem is not Pacquiao stepping up and agreeing to the random blood test , which I personally think random blood tests are silly! This self proclaimed P4P fighter Mayweather Jr. who once stated in an interview that he had came up in weight just like Pacquiao and it was no surprise to him what Pacquiao had accomplished because he too had came up from the lower weights to welterweight! Now ask yourself this , if he too had come up from 110lbs or whatever weight Pacquiao started at , why is it that he hasn't been accused of using steroids? How i see it , Mayweather Jr. is trying to avoid this fight because why all of a sudden are you worried about steroids? Is it because maybe he has never fought anyone greater than him? He did avoid Margarito , Mosley , Cotto , was forced to fight De La Hoya at the end of De La Hoya's carreer in which many thought was a close fight! Lets face it , Mayweather Jr. has met his match and he is afraid of Pacquiao!!!

Because he did it in a decade, naturally adapting your body and muscles to the higher weights, also his punching power is not the same than in lower weights...with all due respect, do you even know about what your talking about?

[Mr. Chago]

this **** is getting ridiculous already!

and tedious...make the fight OR NOT...but cut this tedious crap.

[Mr. Chago]

floyd's fans should stop saying that. such scenario is not possible cause manny would never pull a ***** move like that.

He would more likely make a ***** move like draining fighters to different weights not to make the fights, but to have an advantage depending on the natural weight of the fighter...P4P King my A$$!!

Manny will cave, there are too many people riding on this historic paycheck! At the end of the day everyone's gotta eat and a random drug test isn't gonna be enough to allow this fight to be passed up.

To Manny fans: I like Manny and Mayweather Jr. I love the sport. But people let's look at it like this. Say Manny fights Yuri for $6-10M at 154lbs and gets knocked out. Which is extremely possible considers the physical differences. Yuri is nearly 6ft tall, fights at 154 probably walking around at 175lbs and would out weigh Manny on fight night by probably more than 15lbs and have a considerable reach advantage of about 5 inches. A knock out loss to Manny would erase a $40M paycheck and completely destroy Manny's mentality of being a gladiator, which is what people love about him. On the flip side if Manny wins he will win an unprecedented 8th world title. If he wins by KO there will be even louder calls for the very drug test Mayweather is demanding. His PPV numbers for this fight won't be good because contrary to popular belief he's not a PPV fighter yet...almost but not yet and very few people have heard of Yuri Foreman. When those numbers come in, his barganing chip against Mayweather Jr for a 50/50 purse split will disappear. So from what I see happening the only thing that can be gained out of a Yuri Foreman fight is a meaningless title. Matter fact didn't Yuri just win that title on an undercard of I think Mayweather Jr. fight!? Rather your a Pacquiao or Mayweather Jr. fan or hater we should all be screaming at the top of our lungs for Manny to take the test and get this fight together!

I guess Manny should budge on the 2-3 days test prior to the fight, take the fight and send both father and son to the grave on March 13th.

Margacheato brought nothing to the table for Floyd.
Floyd called out Mosley plenty times and Mosley said no each time even Shaeffer admitted it on this website check the older post.
It was also Floyd who called out Oscar. Oscar only took the fight after Mosley declined to take it. Moving up in weight isn't the issue. Look at Pacquiao he has the same speed, now more power and a better ability to take punches. JMM hurt him and Hatton, Oscar and Cotto couldn't? This test is worth taking for Manny to put everyones mind at ease.

The problem with GBP is that they already have a beef with Pacman before the negotiations. There's alot of bad blood there. I really think GBP is giving bad advise to Mayweather and the camp. Sure Mayweather is part of it but when you put gasoline (GBP) in some fire (PBF), then you get something bigger and uncontrollable. And to reiterate... Manny does not need the money. Getting 3-5 million for fighting Yuri is like getting 150 - 250 million in the Philippines. And the money goes way farther there. So don't Manny's camp to "cave" in. Right now, it's history and fight fans are grasping for straws. I already cancelled my hotels rooms and got credit for my flights once the lawsuit was filed. I'm pretty much checkout out of dodge with this fight.

At least you admit that Manny is not a ducker and is not afraid of fighters who can match/defeat him.

The lawsuit against GBP and the Mayweathers was filed for a mere $75,000...this is not going to break the bank for anyone. And in my opinion, Pac will lose this meager lawsuit...what everyone fails to see and understand is that this is AMERICA, we have freedom of speech and opinion so no judge in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA will award PACMAN not one red cent in this case. So the only clear resolution to this baseless issue is to cut out the bs and both warriors take the freakin randam blood test for whatever days up to the fight. It only takes less than a half a tablespoon of blood (which can be replenished in minutes by drinking a glass of water) to do the required testing, if that small amount weakens you, how in the hell should anyone be able to pass a fight physical (mentally and physical) to fight at this level of the game against any opponent. Or is it that he really has something to hide?????

Whilst i agree the lawsuit aainst Jr is frivoulous and in my view (a ***** move) i will point out that it is $75K + PUNITIVE DAMAGES. I.e. Damages intended to dissuade others from engaging in the conduct that formed the basis of the lawsuit.

Or maybe go look @ some of the lawsuits against big tobacco of years past.
you will see cases of judges awarding 250K of damages and then $50 million of punitive damages. That way big tobacco had to scrap advertising targeted to minors or cop a multi-million dollar hit.
