    When did Texas and Jerry Jones become such a huge deal in making the fight? When, in reality, EVERYONE INVOLVED WERE GOING TO BE PAID OUT THE WAZOO FOR THIS MEGA FIGHT!?

      And flood in they did. When that didn't work so well, suing was the next best thing.

        No, not really. Because if he indeed feels this way, he would not be in the media talking about how he agreed to no cut dates or 7 days or whatever.

        If Manny truly, truly feels that he will be weakened by given blood to close to the fight and it will not allow him to be 100%, the whole "I agreed to 14 days" is a sham.

          Huge deal? I'm just saying there were other reasons for the fight not being made. I could give a **** where it's made. **** drug testing, Texas, stipulations.. They can fight in a backyard for all I care, just get the fight made. And yea, they'd be getting $$$$$ which is why I don't understand why the fight hasn't been made yet.

            Jerry Jones was willing to pay more. 25M was his initial offer I think for the site fee. Thats initial...

              How did Cowboys Stadium and Jerry Jones become involved in the May-Pac negotiations? Do have the source we can reference?

                  Well, I could comprehend that 'fighter A' agreed to the concessions of 'fighter B' though 'fighter B' didn't 'fighter A's.'

                  Why not agree to random testing?

                    Yes really. He agreed to Floyds initial stipulation and some. Instead of knockin him.. you should be applauding him for trying to get the fight made. Instead of taking a vacation.. he fights. But I don't expect you to understand that.

                    Orrrr, just maybe he wants to get the fight made already? Manny called Floyds bluff.. What did Floyd do? Said he wanted to spend time with has fam and go on vacation, but we all saw how that turned out..

                      that's interesting...no mention of 'past history' of failing tests for PAC but you remain adamant that he HAS to take that test
                      Mayweather agreed.

                      Pacquiao didn't.

                      Am I wrong?
