Mayweather is setting a better standard for the sport than Pacquiao is.

Have NSAC implement there own blood testing, and neither Flyod or Pac cant ducked the fight. Otherwise DLH/Mayweathers paid Oympic blood test cant be trusted.

What better standard are you talking about? This is hypocrisy at its height.

Where is the OST on the undercards?

Singling out a guy who has no record of PED use should incite a massive demand for explanation for it.

But since this is the cause of the fight not being made, Pac should relent and have the last laugh on the ring.

One of the things that I do view as inconsistency from Mayweather though is the fact that he paid to fight for Zab Judah's belt after Zab lost to Baldomir. So me myself, I do wonder how sincere he is about not letting the sanctioning bodies get away with there scandalous ways. But he gets props from me for at least boycotting them last night despite what happened in the past.

Hey bro, Floyd paid the fee in the Zab fight because it was his first belt at welter, same reason he did it at 154 against Oscar, now that he's covered those classes, no need to pay a fee, its about putting a stamp on legacy, why fight at a class basically if there will never be a record of it so to speak. Trust me if he ever fights a champ at 160, he will pay the fee.

c'mon man, floyd just didn't want to give up 3% of his purse. he already dumped a 20k on OST. floyd did what he did out of self-interest.

Youre so blinded by hate you make yourself seem braindead sometimes.

On the flip side, Pac is willing to fight against all odds time and time again.

Moving up from super bantamweight to fight with Barrera, Marquez, and Morales a total of seven times.

Fighting in 4 weightclasses in the span of a just over year (March 2008 to May 2009)

Sure, he fights for titles. But the titles don't really matter. Taking on big challenges is what really matters. I don't care too much wether fighters are fighting for titles or not, what I like is fighters pushing themselves to and beyond the limits of what people thought they could accomplish.

Pacquiao gets alot of hate on this forum. Its kind of mind boggling. It just goes to show you how Mayweather's media campaign to tarnish Pacquiao's legacy has worked. It feels like the kind of manipulation we see in dirty politics.

I figure I'm gonna stop defending the guy. Pac is under-appreciated but that's a loss for those who don't appreciate his ability, not for those who do.

History will have the final say on his legacy and I figure no amount of internet arguments is gonna have much of an impact on that.
