      Among true, hardcore followers of the sport that have been following this game for decades, Mayweather-Pacquaio is nothing but a great big man fighting a great little man. As great as Pac is, Mayweather presents a package that will probably be too much to overcome. Mayweather has been fighting long enough as a welterweight where he needs to step up and do what all great welters do. And that is fight for the middleweight title.

      Personally, I'm a huge fan of Money and Pac. And personally, it sickens me that they will ultimately be the fight that defines each other's career. And IMO, that's totally unfair. Its unfair for Mayweather because I don't think a guy's career can be defined by beating a smaller opponent. And unfair for Pac because he shouldn't have to beat a bigger fighter to define his career. Its a great event, but nothing else. I may be totally wrong here. But in my couple decades of following this game, a great big man always beats a great little man.

          Amidst all the Sturm und drang of the on then off, on then off Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao super fight negotiations, the most contentious issue on the table, under the table and behind the table has been a consistent one.

          The Mayweather side has always maintained that it thinks Pacman is a drug cheater and thus it's one persistent, nonflexible demand was always for totally random drug testing.

          If you recall, Pacquiao would only OK a prefight drug test up to 14 days before the fight with the mandatory postbout blood being drawn in their respective lockerrooms immediately thereafter.

          The negotiations crashed twice when the hopes of fight fans worldwide were running high and the two sides started spitting at each other again. Even a self-imposed gag order did not get them to the contract stage in the second go-round.

          When Pacquiao was in New York a few weeks ago to hype his Nov. 13 bout against Antonio Margarito, he quietly but firmly told me he had aceded to the random testing demand. No ifs, buts and no candy or nuts if you know what I mean.

          Pacman made the statement with agent Michael Koncz standing behind him. Koncz did not seek to correct or modify Congressmanny's plain assertion.

          On Tuesday, as Oscar de la Hoya visited Gleason's Gym in Brooklyn to plug Golden Boy's new relationship with Barclays Center in that boxing conscious borough, I nearly had a cardiac event when I mentioned what Manny said to GBP CEO Richard Schaefer.

          Two or three other scribes were within earshot. I don't know if they were as astounded as I was by Richie Rich's quick response.

          I expected a "no comment" or other form of demurral.

          I mean, it's

          But no such disclaimer or correction was forthcoming. Instead, Schaefer co-signed Pacquiao's statement regarding accepting the at any given time blood testing for drug use.

          "If Pacquiao said that, then I'm sure he wouldn't lie about it," Schaefer said without blinking.

          It's not Schaefer was intoxicated with truth serum or anything.

          But I did not have him across the table, under oath in a deposition or on the witness stand undergoing cross examination.

          I inquired about Mayweather and Schaefer took a pass.

          "I'm not talking about Mayweather right now," Schaefer snapped.

          If boxing fans have any strand of hope for Floyd-Manny to happen in 2011, I say this is it.

          Random drug testing is a non-issue now and both sides have said so.

          If they can't reset and, Antonio Margarito permitting, then make Floyd-Manny for next May, then I'll be compelled to write a book about their idiocy.

          I wonder if can borrow John Kennedy O'Toole's title for his great New Orleans novel.

          That's right. "Confederacy of Dunces."

            Dude, I wanna see the fight too but PBF/Pac is no Leonard vs Duran, Leonard vs Hearns, Leonard vs Hagler, Hagler vs Hearns, Hearns vs Duran, etc. PBF/Pac is the best we have right now but do some youtube research then you'll come back with a changed mind. Trust me I'm just scratching the surface.

                  As I've already stated, The Examiner is one of the least credible boxing websites on the net. Hell, they don't even qualify for fight credentials for their "writers." All you have to do is go and watch episode 1 of 24/7 Pacquaio-Margarito and you'll see chief Pacquaio flunkie Michael Kontz clearly stating that they agreed to the USADA testing up until 7 days before the fight. Forget second hand, rinky-dink websites/ This one came straight from the horse's mouth.

                      FIND ME PROOF PAC IS JUICING THEN FLOYD CAN MAKE THIS REQUEST

                      Pac wants a 10mil penalty for Floyd coming in over weight which HE DID AGAINST MARQUEZ..
                      PROOF BELOW
                      Floyd Mayweather Jr.’s $10 million purse just got smaller for his return to boxing Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. Mayweather Jr. came in two pounds over the agreed-upon 144 pounds for his welterweight bout with Juan Manuel Marquez and will face a fee of an undisclosed amount. ...


                      How hard is this to understand..
                      Your comment has zero logic. You cant argue the "wants" and "needs" of each fighter/DIVA. The FACT is, Pac has verbally agreed to OST, he even allegedly sent a signed contract to Floyd agreeing to it right?

                      As for Floyd fighting JMM, again he paid JMM up front to come in over the CONTRACTED weight. Its not like on weigh in he stepped on the scale and shocked everyone. He paid what the commission has set forth. lol Again, JMM didn't have to take the fight.

                      Also what gives Pac the right to DEMAND something outside of the commission if Floyd cant? Pac doesn't make the rules right??? Double standard! Just because YOU think Pac is warrant to making a rule is your biased opinion, it doesn't change the overall FACT that they BOTH are making demands OUTSIDE of the commission. Again double standards. Why do we hold such low standards for Pac?
