Hopkins says Pacquaio should take the tests.

[the gent]

if boxing wants to be mainstream again it has to prove the top athletes are cleaner than other sports....this is pacquiaos fault he doesnt understand this!!! what do you expect from a 3rd grade dropout!!!

You mean the 3rd grade drop out that has made a very successful life for himself? You would beg for his scraps if you thought he would actually hand them to you.

Yeah that 3rd grade drop out....What's your education level BTW?

Lemme guess, your rollin in money right?

If boxing wants to be mainstream again. It has to respect its fans give them what they want. Fans said they are ok with what Manny is willing to do to prove himself, Floyd says eh eh, im going on vacation. Fans get nothing. Fans have said they are cool with the 14 days, they have spoken.

[Gino Ros]

hopkins is misinformed he's still going on information from the first failed negotiations pac clearly accepted tests and floyd is on vacation.

I love bhop but he's golden boy, come on!

can you please give a link for pac accepting random tests? i haven't been able to find any information on that and arum won't say.

[Gino Ros]

i don't think floyd can beat manny. but hopkins is right and manny should take the tests. i know that manny doesn't do drugs but i don't know why he won't take the tsts to get floyd in the ring.

i respect manny because he stepped up to provide for his family after his father was gone. manny became the man of the house. so he couldn't go to school.

I think Manny is willing to do the 14 days that Floyd wanted initially and most the boxing world, its fans are good to go with what Manny has to do. We are beyond trying to argue or defend from baseless paranoid accusations. The fans are satisfied with Mannys call. Floyd's turn.

[pistol whip]

I'm in complete support of fully random year-round testing of ALL pro fighters under all promotions.

Me to but once again whos gonna be paying for it? Oh by the way Football and baseball do not use the USDA'a version of drugtesting they have their own.

I thought floyd initially wanted random testing without any cutoffs, and the 14 days was a last ditch effort to save the fight and manny dismissed it and fought clottey to try to leave floyd without an opponent.

[Pacquiao'd]

1) Pac-Cotto did 1.25 mil. and don't say marquez isn't a draw, coming off the Diaz win, he had a lot of fans. So yeah, Floyd is the bigger draw, but Pac's not that far off
2)They won't give into floys demands and take 40%. I actually agree with you and think they should give in, but Arum won't - he'd rather we got Pac-Marg
3) I never said Floyd wouldn't sign the fight with Shanew. Floyd did well and beat Mosley fair and square, but come on, everyone wanted Pac-May, not SSM-May. Mosley was what, a 3:1 underdog?
4) Oh, and i know Mosley's not really a great fighter anymore, but i still enjoy watching his fights and i will always be a fan. That's why he's at the top of my favourite list

You're just disagreeing with everything i say for the sake of it

once again, i suggest you go pull up horus' thread where he displays all the numbers between pac and floyd.

its not even close. floyd has fought on PPV 7 times while pac has fought 12 times on ppv.

so go look at the numbers and try to tell me that its 'not that far off' or 'slighty'

matter of fact, here. if floyd fought on PPV 12 times, imgaine what his numbers would be like
