Pacquiao turned down Mayweather's terms because he is a proud bastard, just like he turned down De La Hoya's terms and Hatton's terms and Cotto's terms because he's a proud bastard. The other three boxers backed down, Mayweather didn't. Pacquiao did agree to tests, but not on Mayweather's terms. Having made that decision (which I don't think was the right decision, but given his personality and background and track record, it was a completely predictable decision), he felt that team Mayweather were smearing his whole career and reputation in a way that justified a court case. That also is completely predictable if you know anything about the man and what makes him tick. Whether he's been badly advised from a legal point of view, and whether he stands any chance in court, is a different matter. But my point there was that what Burstein says about that is irrelevant because he's obviously biased.

joe is still bitter about that **** till this day thoBefore the Thrilla in Manilla Muhammad Ali made some VERY derogatory comments to Joe Frazier and statements like calling him a "gorilla" and accusing him to be a "conservative" which at that time meant he was an "Uncle Tom" Frazier didn't sue for damages and racial slurs, he got there and fought Ali. I didn't say Pacquiao doesn't want to fight, I said fighters settle their differences in the ring. So, I don't know where you got that from. As a boxing fan, I am upset that the biggest fight that can be made is not being made and instead all we get is this lawsuit BS. Both these guys think they are bigger than boxing and it is a shame b/c these guys were very humble guys at one time. I prefer to see guys like the Super Sixers, Paul Williams, Sergio Martinez, Timothy Bradley, and Devon Alexander instead of waiting for Mayweather-Pacquiao. These guys don't BS they just fight and are true P4Pers in boxing today.Comment

Do you think that only ONE side has to answer questions? You think that Pac's lawyers get to question the Mayweathers but the Mayweather/GBP lawyers don't get to question Pac?

question him for what? the legality or the legal basis of his suit? that is not pac to answer he has a lawyer to represent him. how can you question somebody for six hours who almost didn't say anything or commented about the allegations against him? if anything it's the defendants who are in line for long questioning.Comment
