    again does his word not mean anything?



    a lot has changed man where have you been

    OST testing has now been performed and seemingly a success with neither fighter complaining about it being overly instrusive.

    that changes things whether you want to admit it or not. Mayweather NOW has precedent on his side.

    and stop with the immaturity no one is saying they do not want the fight to happen

    but it's like what Manny fans used during the intial talks of the negotiations happened. They stated "why should Manny have to bend to Mayweather's terms? It's the priniciple of the matter"

    why should Mayweather now bend to an offer that was taken off the table in Feb?
    OST is not official so there is no precedent. Manny is trying to make the fight, Floyd should be too. You bring up how fans said "Why should Manny have to bend to Floyds will" (something I agree with), now that he has you want him to bend more. As a fan of the sport you should be wanting this fight no matter what instead of worrying about Floyds feelings, finances etc. If the offer was good ten it should be good now.

      Exactly. because Floyd offered it. While publicly saying he wants to clean up the sport.

        So then you're saying you drew that conclusion yourself, right? Because Floyd never said the compromise was to ensure safe testing. Obviously the compromise was...a compromise. Which, in turn, compromised the testing.

          Funny. You agree with everything that Manny says, but you say this. Rudie you HAVE failed.

            So if Floyd got knocked out in May the offer should still be good, right?

            BTW, what about what Floyd said in February? If that offer was good then, it should be good now.

              He's giving in to Floyds last offer before negotiations came to a halt. How is that getting what ever he says? And you got no room to be calling anyone a d*ickrider, son. You wanted this fight in January under these circumstances, now they're not good enough for you because Floyd said so. Wipe that **** off your chin ball jockey.

                Floyd said he wants to be assured of a clean fight. So why would he offer the cut-off if he thinks that wasnt enough?

                  He clearly came out and said that was it for as far as that deal was concerned..

                  What about the fact that Floyd's last win was more impressive then pacs, while last time it was the other way round? what about the fact that Floyd made huge ppv sales with a guy who hasn't been on ppv for years and is allways the B side

                    If you actually knew what I said in January, you'd know that while I thought 14 days was fair, I believed Floyd should not have compromised at all on the testing. Split? Sure. Testing? No.

                    Second, Floyd's last offer before negotiations halted doesn't stand anymore...just like Manny's last offer before negotiations halted doesn't stand anymore. Get over it.

                      The same reason he agreed to 50/50 when everyone said he wouldn't: He wanted the fight. So much so, that he was willing to compromise the testing. That is simply not the case anymore. Manny ****ed up his hand and Floyd came up all aces. That's the way the ball bounces sometimes. No need to come back begging and "accepting" imaginary offers. Why do you think Floyd's team is ignoring them? They need to get serious.
