    THEN ITS UP TO THE COMMISSION TO IMPLEMENT TOUGHER TESTING POLICIES.

    But what commission, Nevada or Texas?????

    As I understand it Arum is targeting Dallas Stadium from now on and Floyd wants Vegas.

      Im not saying all of that. What Im saying is that so many people are contributing to this fight not happening. How much of it is Pac, Arum, Roach, Floyd, Sr and Roger....thats all up for debate. I just feel that all are hurting the chances of it happening.

      You can't honestly tell me that when Roger and Sr. get on these boxing talk shows and do these interviews claiming that the Philippines (pac home country) is some PED factory (A-side meth), that they aren't pissing Manny off and making him less likely to give in to take these test? Brother they are hurting this fight, whether you choose to admit it or not.
      Roger and Floyd Sr aren't why the fight isn't happening. Those accusations did not stop Manny from agreeing to negotiate AND agreeing to submit to random testing.

          You have to sit on the toilet for a long time to come up with that, believe me.

              Floyd is possibly the greatest fighter on the planet, if I felt anything may possibly weaken me before having to fight him I sure as hell wouldnt do it.

                That should make him want to take the tests that he agreed to take EVEN more, then KNOCK OUT their son/nephew!

                  The last I checked,Arum,Manny and Roach are making a mockery of the sport by putting Manny against guys that aren't in his class (or even deserving of a title fight) and providing some of the worst undercards in front of a massive audience.I think he repulsed more potential fans than he gained with that lame ass Dallas fight...

                  Dude, Manny's fighting people way bigger than him in every fight now. Mayweather's been fighting smaller guys and bums.

                  Get real.

                  Tony: Cintron 2x, Clottey, Mosley, Cotto, Williams.

                  Floyd: Baldomir, Bruseles, Gatti, Judah, Ndou, Mitchell.

                  Get the **** outta here w/ your bull****. Its not even close who's fought and beat the better comp.

                  Im not even sure how Mayweather is ranked in the top 10 at WW w/ that list.

                  Boxing is a joke of a sport.

                    He doesn't deserve a fight w/ Packy. Pac's on another level.


                    Yep. Tony has done nothing but bring us great fights and fought everyone in the division.

                    Unlike Floyd who's been fighting nothing but bums and smaller guys.

                    Do the math.
                    Yeah-let's support Margarito-the same bum who got caught trying to use loaded weapons in a boxing match...honestly,you support that trash?
                    Why continue to let Manny off the hook when it comes to facing the best,yet if Floyd fight's similar competition he is slated?

                      hehe..look who's dodging the question...Manny didn't change the NSAC rules if that's what you mean by "commission rules"---becuase USADA.does not have jurisdiction in Nevada.
