Representatives for Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. have wrapped up a day of mediation with no word on any progress on the drug-testing issues endangering the boxers' prospective March 13 bout.

Pacquiao promoter Bob Arum and Mayweather's promotional team all say they've been told to make no public comments after their meeting in Santa Monica on Tuesday.

The mediation wrapped up nearly nine hours after it began in front of Daniel Weinstein, a retired federal judge.

Top Rank and Golden Boy Promotions agreed to the mediation in an effort to resolve their dispute over the methods and frequency of drug testing for the bout, which will be held at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas if a compromise is reached.

Any guesses on what could have transpired? Argghhh another week of this and I will no longer give a toss!!!

I agree with you.The issues you've mentioned have been blown out of proportion...The problem now is how to cure the damages done..But, still, it's a good sign that both parties are now seeing eye to eye for the fight to push through...I hope there's gonna be a meeting of the minds on certain issues sooner than we expect.
