      I already respect Manny Pacquiao as a fighter, I've never dissed him. Maybe friendly wars when he went up against Hatton and shut me up by stopping him in 2 rounds I gave him props right away and I never doubted him again. I even picked him against both Cotto and Clottey and i'll pick him against pretty much any 140-147 pounder and some at 154. But i'll have a lot more respect for him if he takes the USADA tests until they want to stop taking blood from them(Mayweather and Pacquiao).

      The first negotiations, Mayweather agreed to Pacquiao's 50-50 when he could have made it harder and ask for more, he agreed to glove size 8oz Reyes gloves, he agreed to a 10mill penalty for every weight over 147 at the weigh in. I respect that Floyd did that. But I didn't like how Pacquiao didn't agree to the 14 day cut off, which was the only thing Floyd asked of him. Now Floyd feels he deserves more of the money, and is demanding full OST. He warned Team Pacquiao negotiations will be much harder in the second time around, so far it is much harder.

        Out of EVERYONE involved in this fight....save for Floyd and Manny....Freddie has the most credible mouth (IMHO). He might run his mouth a little too much...but you gotta admit that he speaks the truth. Everything from his saying that Shane was "too dangerous" (before the Cotto fight which I don't think he believes now) to his KO predictions. I don't trust Bob, I don't trust Richard, I don't trust DLH, I don't trust Alex, I don't trust ANYONE from Team Pac other than Pac and Freddie. Come to think of it....if ANYONE can make a decision for Manny....Freddie is the best person to make that decision.
        What would the term be for being a "Freddie-Stan" or "Freddie-Tard"? Cuz that's what Manny is.......

          we dont know whats happening now..just cause roach says something dosnt make it true...we dont know if manny really is compromising or if mayweather is or not because we have one side sticking to a gag order and the other side blurting things out to the media to make it look like mayweather scared and dosnt want the fight. theirs two sides to a story and we only here one side and the other is sticking to what they agree on and not going to the media to get the other to bend

              So, I guess Tyson had a mental edge when Evander gave in and did the steroid testing? Tyson ended up biting Evander..... twice...that worked....

              The video is filled with conflicting statements.
              It was called sarcasm on my part, duh. Of course I want to see the fight. Sorry, I'm not going off EVERYTHING that is said by only ONE side, like yourself and others. And what does the conflicting statements in that Mayweather video have anything to do with the conflicting statements between Manny and his trainer concerning the fight that they are trying to make?

                Well, my next question would be...why isn't Team Manny obeying the gag order? Not sure if you can answer that, but that is the first thing that comes to mind J-ro.
                That is because they can't help themselves. They just like Oscar they keep putting their foot in their mouth. That is why no matter if they're right or wrong with these negotiations and the demands from either side. Pac team will keep looking bad and su****ious cuz they can't keep quiet while Schafer and team Mayweather are shutting up.

                The only one that ****ed up is Oscar from the other side. He is the only one who opened his mouth and hide behind the "misquoted" bull****. Oscar and Roach are not part of the negotiations. But, I am pretty they know at least a LITTLE tidbits here and there about what is going on.

                But, if there was no gag order and no negotiations then Schafer should of just came out and said it. Instead of I can't comment on it. But, just cuz GBP are in negotiations with TR doesn't mean Team Mayweather are. Team Mayweather is really the key. They have to like the demands not Golden Boy.

                  Stop puffing yourself up, guy. And quit with the "pinned" stuff, you are looking sillier each time you type that.

                    If a man can be a professional boxer, who can spend months training hard away from his loved ones, step in the ring and deal with another man trying to separate him from his consciousness, I would imagine that a compromise in a negotiation wouldn't make them weak mentally, or give his opponent a mental advantage. IMHO the only mental advantage or disadvantage has more to do with what a fighter does in the ring.
