    Manny seemingly took the test for the Morales fight ONE day before the fight not 14!
    And he took that day off too.......
    He took a blood test a week before the Hatton fight, he even took the day off too, Freddie wasn't worried about him missing any sparring time was he?

      What do you mean "Demands"? He only asked for one demand, and that is the random drug test. No, he will not cave in because he knows the media will rip him apart if he do. They would say that he was scared to fight Manny in the first place that's why he'd asked for that test, so i still think he is gonna stand by his demand. I do think that if Team Pac agrees to do the 14 days (which is meaningless), Floyd will accept.

        You don't how to read do you? Read it again...by the way, HBO said the blood test for the Hatton fight was 24 days off.

            Ok, "demand" singular.....and if he is so worried about his image I doubt he would say and do half of the things he says and does.

            He doesn't hold the cards really here, he can compromise to where Pac is satisfied or no payday and Pac walks away on top it seems.

            Two things are for certain, 1. Floyd can't be the man again unless he fights and beats Pac 2. Floyd can't get the huge payday he wants with anyone other than Pac.

              7 days, 14 days, 24 days, 30 days, it really doesn't matter. It should be RANDOM, but since Roach said that they wouldn't had any problems if they had a 5 days window, Floyd offered them 9 more days even though all those days are meaningless, but he did it just to show that he wanted to made the fight happened.

                Roach said they didn't care if it was a 5 day window or 7 ---but when Pacquiao refused---that's when Roach started spouting crap from 2005 from Morales fight however true it maybe.....the only person holding this fight is PACQUIAO!!!!!!!!!

                  Hmmm I think PAcquiao is more likely to cave. He just wants to get the fight signed and delievered.

                    Exactly hit the Nail on the head, People can say what they like that "Floyd doesn't care about legacy or status,"
                    He believes he is the best and he ain't dumb he knows at the moment he has to prove that!
                    Now what better what to that then beating the top guy and making the biggest pay cheque of his life?
                    Knowing that this isn't the toughest fight out there for him and that he can retire comfortably after......

                    People don't look at the fact that Floyd has been extremely easy going in the negotiations for this fight:
                    • Agreed to 50/50 Split- When he clearly has the high PPV numbers
                    • Agreed to 10oz Gloves- He wanted 8oz Gloves
                    • Agreed to 10MILLION dollar fine- Never even heard of in the sport
                    • Agreed to fight in Dallas- Agreed to Bob Arums demand
                    • Agreed to fight at 147- Firstly wanted it at 154 to distinguish any thoughts of Catchweight bull****
