      Who knows. It is all guessing, but it does not imply guilt

        "No".

        The message is pretty clear.
        What's the message? Oh wait...it must be "I don't want strict randomized blood testing...or is it "now that there is doubt over my integrity,I should put up a wall of resistance when it comes to OST"???
        I'm struggling to figure out ANY sort of positive that Manny gets by his vocal stance against this sort of testing (remember,this guy is suing over his reputation,so he "must be concerned" about it,eh?)

            So who do you blame for the fight falling apart? Seeing as how Manny agreed to Floyd's request?

              Ive already agreed he 100% does. Im not a Pac fan or Mayweather fan, but I enjoy watching them both. I have no interest in who's right or wrong I just feel in this instance its Floyd.

                You sure are. Starting with that first sentence

                Man, people just don't want to see the obvious.

                  Why so? When both parties agreed?

                    I agree he has much more reason to change his mind. My decision is only breakfast after all.

                      But he wanted the fight to get made, so he agreed. I mean if he never intended to fight Manny, the weight demand would have been a great time to back out of the fight.
