All of a sudden he should be able to change the rules at his own whim? Bull****. If the governing bodies or state athletic commissions put this rule in effect and Pac refuses.....its all on him. Until that time Floyd is the one I see holding up the fight by trying to make his own rules. I don't want to hear anything about Floyd meeting Pacs demands. Fact is Manny didn't slander Floyd and try changing any rules. If Floyd wants this fight he can follow the same rules as everybody else. If he can't accept those rules, like he always did before, he doesn't really want to fight.

    A lot of people seem to want to blame Pac. Where were all you people, and why weren't you worried before?

      Asking for it is fine. But if you don't get it and still refuse to fight you're the one responsible for the fight not happening.

      And obviously Pac made Floyd blink first by asking for a change in the rules. Believe it.

          Great post, its not a fact of any sort but to me it just seems like Floyd and most objective fans didn't think Pac would murder Cotto like he did and once he saw that, in his heart of hearts he didn't believe he could do anywhere near the amount of damage Pac did to Cotto.

          It then really made him think twice and the safety 1st mindset in him took over and the money wasn't worth the risk so he finds a way to get out without seeming like he wanted out though like always reasonable hardcore fans see through his usual ploys.

                Theres a reason why Manny brought out 51,000 to a stadium,

                and Floyds next fight is in the same ole, same ole. That in itself is a bit of a joke, seeing as how two american boxers can't even get a stadium to fight in.

                People want to be a part of the Manny Pacquiao experience, live and in person.

                I know you're implying that its Pacs image was more damaged,

                but tonights fight says you're all wrong.

                  Obviously Pacs image isn't that damage considering the turn out for his fight last night. And if he never tests positive under the the rules of boxing his legacy will still be secured. The only ones who consider his image damage are the ones who need excuses for a Mayweather fight not happening.

                    Nobody has yet to answer my initial question. Why was nobody concerned about OST before Floyd refused to fight Manny? Hell there have been plenty of high profile fighters who have tested positive, yet no call for a change in testing. Why?

                      Good Luck getting that question answered.

                      In general people will say Manny is on steriods and Floyds a *****. It's all the same bs on NSB.
