Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Continues To Pressure Mayweather To Fight

[WESS]

Where is he getting this 14 day cut off from? That was old negations, an old contract that he disagreed with. There is no such thing as a "14 day cut off".

Even if there was, why is he so willing now BUT not when it was requested the first time around?

Sounds to me Team Pac likes making things up.... because it is VERY VERY VERY clear that there IS NO CUT OFF.....

Pac believes drawing blood can weaken him and he doesnt want to take that risk. Blood test can also cause serious injury, read this article

Because he wants to make the ****ing fight happen... I thought the answer to that question would be clear as day to most people.

No cut off? Right, like the no cut off on the May/Mosley fight that turned out to be 18 days.

pac vs cotto did more buys than floyd vs shane.. still 50/50 split. pac didn't call for a bigger share..

initially , both Pac and Floyd each demanded the bigger share but settled for 50/50 split. No, mosley fight drew more than the cotto fight. but the point is the "50/50 split and 14day cut off " ship has sailed when Pac turned it down. Now with the Mosley win, a new ship is on the dock. New situation, new deal.

Why take the risk when its not required?

Well, there are two reasons.....

Number #1.....
Because it is absolutely harmless as proven by HUNDREDS of athletes every year, because its your ****en job, and because you would get paid 30 million dollars for doing it

Number #2.....
is it kind of silly to refer to a couple of blood tests as "taking a risk" ?

Technically, isn't going to the bathroom "taking a risk" ?
I mean, you could slip on a wet floor and.....

Maybe Fighters should just stay in bed right up til the day of the fight, just in case. I mean, who wants to take risks hanging out in a dangerous noisy gym, right?

so right............sparring is 1,000,000,000,000 X the risk a blood test is..........


let's not forget the millions of athletes WADA oversees........if they all had the same attitude as Pac we wouldn't have an Olympics every 4 yrs....

or why take risk of getting caught using PEDs, when it's not required? LOL, those people do really have idiotic logic.

i'm telling my boss i won't be in for work tm and will now be working from home.............given all the fatalities caused in motor vehicle accidents i don't want to take the risk of driving to work..............can't cycle either....those damn cars never observe the 1 metre rule............in fact i'm going to get contractors in the house tm to build a padded room.....when it's done i will cover myself in bubble wrap.......plenty of sharp edges at my place.....can't take the risk.......

[Siggy]

no you won't, if you'll just be mature about it...

so its immature to want to see this fight closer to being instead of less of a reality?
ok, dude.
in negotiations, concessions are made. is that a mature statement?
