I do know that my name is being considered, as it should be. I mean, who else between 140 and 147 can bring the kind of fight that I can? I have solid HBO ratings for all my HBO fights over the last few years, and I have the style that can beat Floyd. And besides, everybody dont know this, but Floyd DID turn down a fight with me several years ago. He called it "slave wages" or something. So theres some unfinished business between us, and now's as good a time as any to straighten it.

        if you'll take a glance back a few posts, you'll see that i've already said i believe floyd screwed up by NOT agreeing to the 14 days (after manny mysteriously declined to move off 24 days). in that post (again, i'm repeating that you can find it a few pages back since i'm guessing you also have processing issues) i also said that i believe floyd should blame his ego. in that respect, floyd should be blamed as much as manny for allowing this fight to go down the tube.

        but i will again ask you to look at this situation OBJECTIVELY (i know...strange word. go look it up)..and then answer this question:

        can you offer a singular logical explanation why you - as a boxing fan, wouldn't want to know for sure that BOTH of the boxers involved in the biggest fight in the history of the sport - ARE CLEAN?

        what i'm going to say to you..i've already said to your other mannyfan friend:

        i'm waiting for your answer.
        you want to know if both boxer r clean, Floyd will need speak to (NCAS). If they change to rules from urine to random blood test, then Manny will go along with it. & he should convince NCSA from now on every fight has to be random test to all pro boxers, not just this fight. So do you think will floyd will make happen ?

        i don't think so, this is just another justification that poodle floyd don't wanna fight, & i bet floyd would not even bother with random testing on Campbell case. Above everything, just sign the contract to prove it.

            that's exatly what i thought. you're ok with manny going through with random blood testing...as long as it's NOT floyd calling for it.

            wake up. at this point - given the damage to manny's credibility/reputation - it's NO LONGER about floyd. it's the principle!

            who cares who initiated the conversation about random blood testing!

            it's out there in the world now...has been for several weeks!

            at this point...just take the tests!

            i can guarantee you that until manny agrees to random blood tests, it's going to be an issue in every one of his future fights - EXCEPT against his FELLOW top rank boxers. because, as we all know, when manny fights someone else in bob arum's stable...then he won't have to even consider random blood testing...or needles period (since he's scared of them).

              Well Spinks is supposed to be fighting Cornelius Bundrage so take him off the list of potential Floyd opponents...was a way better option than Nate here...

                I'd love to see Floyd fight Paul Will or Bradley but can see the fight going to either Nate Campbell or Paulie

                    if clottey is a B+ fighter (which is a damn good grade)..what does that make a JMM weighing 144 pounds , a F+ fighter ?...clottey a dead man ? JMM died when he came up in weight... cotto and clottey together are not tougher than floyd ?...how would we ever know how "tough" floyd is if he REFUSES to take a risk in HIS OWN division.. cotto and clottey combined have faced judah, mosley, baldomir, corrales, margarito and they have fought each other...what makes you think floyd is better than them, because he looks good vs cherrypicked opponents ?

                      Why would floyd fight Nate Campbell? When there is guys like tim bradley, paul williams, Margartio about?

                      Oh, I know. Because he's scared. Campbell is old and past it!
