    Sounds like he saw Pacquiao destroy people like Cotto and thought "is this guy really that good?".
    Or he thinks that way for a reason but why even risk that possibility.

        Just saying.
        True but Floyd has averaged almost 30 million in his last 4 fights though

          level playing field is important and on top of that more testing is better for boxing the way athletes are juicing this day

          i could also say pac as the face of boxing owed it to the sport that has giving him so much, that he could of say yes to the test and show the world that the sports top boxers are clean

            Honestly, I don't even think it's about cheating. Floyd looks good by "cleaning up the sport" and he can make pacquaio look bad. I don't think Floyd is scared to fight a pacquaio who doesn't submit to USADA testing, he just knows it's smarter to fight the one who is subjected to that testing for several reasons. 1 He gets credit for cleaning up the sport, 2 it's a negotiating tactic, and 3 if it actually cleans up the sport that is certainly something mayweather is for. But the first 2 more importantly.

              True, Floyd has the moral high ground in the worlds eyes now.

                funny how it only mattered now.

                i guess the previous 40 opponents were positively , 100% not on roids.

                      He feels he has a reason to ask besides after this whole ordeal he really has a reason to ask.

                      We'll see what happeans I assume this mess will get cleaned up and they will all make long green but who knows.
