I dont get what articles you are reading..

Pac has agreed to testing
Pac has said 50-50 and well fight

Floyd has made the new demand of 60-40

Hmm lets see
1. Floyds demands OST testing
2. Now Floyd demands 60-40 in his favor..

How obvious does that look.. Floyd is making the fight impossible from happening..

If you were Floyd would you be jumping now that your in the driver's seat now. Refer to my post on page 18. Pac agreed to testing now because he knows, he can't fight some cup cake and make more than he did with CLottey. This time around the shoe is on the other foot, Mayweather caved to all Manny's demands the 1st time, and the only thing Mayweather asked for he got sued. Floyd's not making the fight impossible, maybe you were away for the last 5 months. But in between that time, Mayweather knocked off who many regarded as the top WW in Mosley and made close to 40mil. While Manny didn't want anything to do with Mosley and instead went after a very live, but beatable CLottey and made close to 10million. Thats a 30million dollar difference. So how can anybody in their right mind be upset with mayweather for playing hardball now that the ball is in his hands. Its funny 'king manny refuses the 14day proposal in January and Mayweather was ducking him. (As if Mayweather knew manny would say no.) Now Manny agrees to the testing, and while (Mayweather's camp never indicated to anybody whether or not its still on the table, peope take his silence as a weakness and feel that because he's not saying anything then he's conjuring up another excuse. lol, If mayweather was/is running afraid now, then manny was running scared then.

Mayweather proved in his last fight he can fight anybody and generate millions, moslty because a lot of his fans wanna see him lose. Pacquiao can't say the same, and the fact of the matter and the sticking point on why team Pacquiao is so adamant on getting a response is that most people here in the US will be wondering why Manny won't agree to fighting up until fight night, like Mayweather's last opponent. And even though their are reports surfacing that Mayweather/Mosley had their testing stopping 18days before the fight, the fact of the matter is they could've been tested up until fight night. I doubt that mayweather and mosley knew when their last test date was going to be, but for some strange reason this issue is a sticking point for team pacquiao, if your fighter is clean why?

They have to wait for the World Cup.. They are not going to try and compete with a global event like that.

Giving in to opponent during negotiations shows a sign of weakness. I think as of right now, they might just be fed up with the whole thing, and really want to get this on. We will see though..

so, do you consider floyd giving in to ALL manny's demands a sign of weakness? i dont think its a sign of weakness myself. in a negotiation, you are going to have give and take. to think you should only have ALL your demands met and give no consideration to the opponet, is just plain crazy.

I've said this all along, there just trying to do a better job of making mayweather look like a ducker than they did the 1st time.

Pacquaio's the one not giving consideration to his opponent. Back in January people forget that Floyd agreed to all of his demands, because he understands the business of the sport and being away for over a year and a half he knew he was not in the drivers seat, **** he agreed to everything that Manny's camp asked of him, and when it was his turn the only request he got sued for.
