    if PAC didnt want the fight, he could have easily told Floyd, 'no testing period' and it would have been dead right then and there
    Why would he need to compromise on the drug testing in the first place?

      Are you serious the offer is off the table? LMAO, negotiations haven't even started.
      i see what your saying but thats a 2 way street, pacquiao already turned down the 14 days once, so does that mean he didnt really want the fight? i dont care what they agree to or who is right, i just hope they work it out and make the fight. if this fight doesnt happen they are both gonna look like *******s.

        Agreeing to an offer that no longer exists in public, is not really saying anyting important. It is a way to look flexible without really being flexible. Also negotiating in public is not a way to get things done~

        Once you start fighting drug testing if you already kind of think that is going on (which Floyd does right or wrong), makes their justification much easier to ask for full testing. Plus if they are already saying this publicly you go for the whole ball of wax just because if soeone gives an inch you have to try and get everything you can.

          Ok...and?

          Once they agreed to that they said they wanted a cutoff, 24 days. This was during the mediation. Pac said 24 days, or 20, Floyd wouldn't move from 14.
          Umm...so they countered with 30 days. When they took it to mediation, Floyd compromised to 14. Manny...24.

          End of story. And like I said. If Manny couldn't take 14 days because he needed a month to recover from a blood test and now he can, then he is a terrible ****ing liar. And maybe some of us don't sound so ridiculous when we tell you that this guy is faking the funk and hiding something.

            Exactly....its fuckin drug testing. You can't compromise a drug test just like you can't compromise a condom.

              Remember how they wouldn't negotiate in public? They just can't stop lying.

                      Me neither. And what upsets me is that I've never heard an athlete tell a drug testing agency, "Wait, I need more time!" and the fans just nod their head in agreement like it's all good. WTF???
