When it comes down to it, Pacquiao agreed to the EXTRA testing Floyd requested

[Vasyl’s dad]

It was more than fair. It was bending over backwards, quite honestly.

Bending over backwards?

How about just going about his 41st fight like the previous 40?

"easy fight, easy work, probably easier than the Marquez fight".


Yea, so easy that you need to include stipulations that you've never had before.
Oh nevermind,

just go write an article somewhere and then come here and not say who you are?

I think both sides should get blamed, but neither side will ever admit to it.

If Mayweather was serious about drug testing. He actually had more to worry about with Marquez because Juan Manuel was coming up from lightweight to welterweight in the span of 7 months. Why wasn't he worried about Marquez possibily cheating to make the weight? How come he didn't find it su****ious that Ricky Hatton could consistently slim down from around a fat 200 lb to a 140-147 fighting machine? I'm not saying any of those guys are on anything but Pacquiao is hardly the first fighter Floyd has faced you could voice su****ion about taking PEDs.

On the flip side, Pacquiao's team ultimately walked away from the fight over a difference of 10 days for blood testing. He did make a compromise by agreeing to the tests, but 30 days and 24 days and 14 days shouldn't have been a hold up to makig the biggest fight ever. Arum didn't take the negotiations seriously once Cowboys Stadium was out of the picture and seemed to actively look for ways to stop negotiations instead of trying to save the fight.

I think if everyone here turned off their blinders they would see that both sides were idiotic during this whole thing.

I think what we fail to realize is that Floyd Mayweather isn't looking at the situation through our eyes. Maybe he knows something we don't? I know that sounds impossible and "no way Manny is juicing" but what if Floyd has reason enough to believe and he's not just going by what we are going by? Let me put it to you like this: So far, we've identified only two other incidents where a fighter has requested PED testing outside of commission protocol. Mike Tyson versus Evander Holyfield and Zab Judah versus Shane Mosley. Notice something?

then why wasnt marquez asked to do it?

Do you think marquez is on something?

[cortdawg25]

this is getting ******....just give it up *******s and Floyd haters. manny didn't want the fight or he on something...point blank period. all the facts point to it and any logical being can see that.


Floyd never left the negotaiting table, Team Pacquaio left the negoitiation table every week!

Yeah that's what you think it was . reality was it was a bluff and Pac made himself look like an *******. But your tortilla is blinding you.

they're gonna show old clips from the 70s when Nate used to babysit floyd jr

LOL!! At one point Nate sparred with Floyd's Dad.

The real statement is.....because Marquez isn't a threat to Floyd's 0.

.

I am 1000% convinced that Team Mayweather got tipped off to what Pac is doing. That is why they have been so "specific" about the type and timing of the testing.

The boxing community is small, and FMS knows alot of people. Somebody dropped dime on Pac.

[DE100]

they offered it AFTER the deal died to save it...by then it was too late...Arum wasn't dealin with it anymore...floyd tried to **** around too much

Wrong

Also

Arum, however, says Pacquiao has known about the 14 days since Jan. 1 and said he had an email exchange between DuBoef and Pacquiao's advisor, Michael Koncz, that prove that Pacquiao had received the offer and rejected it.
