    This is my final say on this topic. I believe Pacquiao's team ultimately felt it to short of time to prepare for the fight and ran with the drug test denial. I would not be surprised at all to see Pacquiao ultimately succumb to this demand later on in the year when a better gameplan for fighting Mayweather can be put together by Team Pacquiao.

    He could have just said that the fight will happen later in the yaer in order to prepare and he would not have been seen any lesser the fighter. Instead, he denied the testing demand and looked su****ious at most about it.

    There's no shame in saying you have to take extra time to study for a difficult test. No shame at all...

    His denial cast shadows of doubt on Team Pacquiao and that's too bad.

      I've rewatched it twice and it was really a close fight. It could have gone either way.
      But considering Cotto had a big gash over his eye by a headbutt, it definitely hindered him not a little, but A LOT.
      Whether he won or not, he deserved the win.

        I also rewatched margarito vs cotto and marg must have been on some mexican type a side meth because he took some hard punches
        I dont think that is fair. Both Margarito & Clottey started at WW and may be the 2 biggest natural WW's out there while Pac started way way way below. Its not just the fact that someone takes the punch. Its the fact that who is taking it. With that being said, I think he's probably clean but he should just take the test, e****ally since its only 14 days out, only 3, only 2 pre fight, and its non random

            PAC is ready for Floyd...Floyd made those demands cause he was coming out of retirement and he fought a fat slow marquez(tryin to discredit PAC...FAIL)...Floyd was in no shape to take on PAC after what PAC did to Cotto...

            So if a crackhead criminal accuses you of something and u dont want to even acknowledge him, you are hiding something?...FAIL

            I do however want to see this fight happen and IF both fighters win, I think it will happen.

            PS What happened to innocent til proven guilty...

            xylocaine!!!!
