    why do *****s care so much about the Money FLoyd makes? He's going to make the biggest payday of his career with 50/50. It takes two fighters to make the biggest fight in history.

    PLUS dont it seem kind of chicken to floyd. First he says he wants the 14 day cut off. Then he probably knew Pacquiao would give in so he said all the way to the fight. When Pacquiao agreed to his first demands Floyd is on vacation and taking a 2 year break from boxing lol.

      .

      Mayweather also said:

      "[If the Mosley-Mayweather pay-per-view does better than Pacquiao-Clottey], instead of 20 or 25 [million dollars], he may have to drop to 15, or 17. And you know me, they may have to throw that extra 5 or 10 on mine, and we can rock and roll. Take it or leave it."

      Fight Hype even repeated that last week...BEFORE Arum's deadline.



      Even the Examiner, which Pinoy boxing fans love so much, stated those "terms" in an article on May 20 (TWO months ago):

      http://www.examiner.com/examiner/x-4...p-to-the-fight


      Everybody knew what Mayweather's demands were: Full random, and a larger cut of the purse. Pacquiao offered 14 days because he knew he already had a done deal with Margarito.


      It seems as if you are defending floyd for not making a concession thus not wanting the fight to take place. There has to be a give & take & the position you are taking for floyd is not conducive for the fight happening & will cause floyd to lose the pr battle which is what is happening now.

        This could be the main reason PBF`s last resort was a vacation.

        Shame on you.
        We can say it's a lie.

        July 19 - In an interview by Chris Robinson from Examiner.com, Jeff Mayweather said “He [Pacquiao] agreed to random testing up to 14 days. I never knew that random had a cutoff. So basically if you don’t have a cutoff, it doesn’t mean it’s random at all. That’s why the negotiations went down. It was the same as before.”

        July 7 - http://fighthype.com/pages/content7919.html
        They stopped taking blood 18 days before [Mayweather-Mosley], so that shows that they can do it and be fine,” Arum would tell Lance Pugmire of the LA Times, explaining why he believes 14 days should be sufficient to satisfy Mayweather’s demands. We’re saying the same thing, that if there’s information that emerges in the final 14 days, we can go to the [state boxing] commission and ask for more tests. We can work it out. No one’s looking to pull any fast ones.

        July 17: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/spor...ao-boxing.html
        Pacquiao didn't want to submit to blood tests too close to a fight, his camp said. Pacquiao budged on the issue during these talks, moving from a 24-day cutoff of blood testing to 14 days. But all along the Mayweather camp has been silent.

        July 15 - http://fighthype.com/pages/content7987.htmlIt should be noted that despite the fact that Mayweather has insisted on random blood testing up until the day of the fight, Pacquiao has only agreed to a 14-day cutoff for random blood testing.

            Did I ever lie?

            You can`t handle the truth?

            Then check out the website channels 23, 11 and 9 sports news on Phil TV. I myself was stunned to hear it while browsing these forums.

            Shame, shame. What other alibis do you have?

                  I'd take any news coming from the Philippines with a grain of salt.

                      so if that's the case why not just say the fight fell apart because of testing? Why lie and say negotiations never went down and make statements like, "i'm on vacation I'm not even thinking about boxing right now" etc.

                      ****** either way
