    Yes it was not. Anyone who says Manny demanded it is lying. Heck, Floyd didn't even want 10ounce, I think he added it in just to get some leverage in the negotiations. Like "okay you disagreed to my gloves, so lets agree on this"....I could be wrong though.

Anyway, who cares about accusing? Manny didn't care. They accused him long before negotiations and it didn't stop him from sitting at the table to make a fight. So that point is moot. You agreed to the tests, now go all the way, instead of looking shady by wanting no more tests a few weeks out.
      He didn't care when it was only Floyd Snr and Malignaggi...but when it became an event and Mayweather demanded testing, I think he felt it. **** he accomplished in his career was being bought into question. He didn't handle the drug testing situation very well, but neither did Floyd.

        Even then, he still agreed. So it doesn't matter.
