I heard you watched Jones-Kelley recently. Remember when HBO accused Roy of roiding for that fight?

I musta missed that one. I bet it was Merchant

De La Hoya said the fight happening or not hinges on Floyd accepting the challenge several times during the summer and recently. Not once did Golden Boy (Schaefer/DLH), Mayweather himself, or even HBO mention OST as the reason why the fight's not happening. Hell, Greenburg has no clue why FLOYD DIDN'T WANT THE FIGHT. Drug testing being the issue is just the excuse the apologists are running with (only after trying out taxes, Roger's trial, etc for a while) again.

No one who was involved in the negotiations has any clue why Floyd is in hiding. But common sense tells you what it is...

It's even strange that Schefer asked Manny about the OST thing. Which means GBP can't even deal with Floyd on a personal level. It's apparent that there's some kind of rift between GBP and Floyd.

*****s should have all the answers.

just because the current situation does not favor floyd, *****s has to bring up the first negotiation and things that happened before to at least appease their wounded ego that their beloved idol chose to go on vacation instead.

greenburg saying 'unsure' is just a diplomatic way of him saying 'floyd ducked manny'. really, if floyd can't give any reason to greenburg, you'd think the same

Floyd walked away from the negotiations because he felt that they're finally closing in. His bluffs were being called left and right. He knew they would finally agree to everything he demanded. He weaseled his way out by saying he's not thinking of boxing and would go on vacation. If he was interested he would have at least scheduled the fight to his own choosing.

You could use that logic for Manny too though.

Of course he could. But why would he do that? Lol

This OST thing is all *****s got. They have nothing.

Well, the mental games are over. Pac won. Pac already got into Floyd's head as seen in his U-stream tirades.

I think like usual you have no idea what you're talking about regarding specific topics, so you speak in generalities knowing that morons might think you know what you're referring to. You know the differences between PH's and controlled substances classified as anabolic steroids? One is illegal and the other at the time was not. Like most topics that require intelligence, you're out of your depth. I'm sure your response will be something "sarcastic", as that's really all you ever lend to most threads.

Booya! take that ****. You hit the nail on the head with this.

Using common sense, it would have been the likely scenario instead of I am on VACATION.
