    I mean there are a lot of people. To be honest I need to get back to studying so I will go into detail (as to why I feel so) later on when I'm done.
    How are all of those people to blame??

    Roger and Floyd Sr? WTF?

    Floyd? How??

It just doesn't add up. I don't think manny is on steroids, there's probably a 1 percent chance he is, having said that I don't understand why he wouldn't just take the tests.


      I wouldn't take it. I don't like to give up blood, it weakens me. I know it's a teaspoon of blood, but i would need almost a month to recover from it, so NO.

        I was going to ask that same question. I can't wait to see the answer lol. I'll also add that Pacquiao's team agreed to the testing originally (We'll take any test they want!"). They knew what was in the contract. The fact that they flip flopped is strictly on them. If they didn't want it they should have never agreed to do it.

          Floyd Sr and Roger? Started the whole mess with false accusations.

          Floyd? By listening to his crack head father and demanding OST when none was needed before any of his fights to get in Manny head..

            Both camps would have made $40mil hadn't Mayweather suddenly throwing the monkey wrench in the whole negotiations. It was a done deal then he comes up with more stipulations and won't budge. He's a ***** and an *******.

                It was pretty shocking, and I guess that is why some people seem to think he is viewed as fine. After the fact the talking heads were so shocked that they really could not wrap their heads around the issue and then Manny had a fight lined up right away then Floyd did shortly after so the topic in teh media kind of changed.

                It doesn't seem like a ruse to me as doing that with this issue seems really dangerous but Arum is pretty di****able and might think that they could play this up and take the tests later. The hardest part about pulling something off like that is making people believe it is real and since it would be an odd topic to do this over I think a ruse is a possibility but then again I still think the fight will happean so maybe that is playing on my thoughts. People did think they were messing around when this first came up but they way things played out and followed through made it seem real.

                Alot depends on what goes down the next go around, but to me that is when we will really see how the media and public feels.

                  That's ******. If Floyd Sr. & Roger affected anything, there would have been no negotiations in the first place.

                    uh...the OSDT was in the contract from the beginning. Stop lying.

                      Good post, G. I think a lot depends on the outcome of Mayweather-Mosley as well. This issue could actually die with that fight.
