I think most of us would have done that if we were innocent, however, we're dealing with somebody (Manny) who believes he's the greatest athlete in the world, and thinks who is Floyd to tell him to do anything?...I'm sure he also thought it could affect the money negotiations as well. It's either guilt or pride, and there's only a handful of people on earth who know for sure. After the second negotiations began I wish Floyd would've let it go, and just signed the fight because in my opinion, Floyd beats Manny (beats him down), whether Pac is on something or not. Can't blame Floyd, but I can't say Manny is a cheater either - this may be the biggest missed opportunity in boxing history simply because of one guy's (or both guys') ego.
    Good analogy but imagine you telling the boss to take a drug test because you want his job... In Manny's world he is the boss.

      Your analogy misses the point. The correct analogy would be your boss saying "we" are doing a blood test today, meaning everyone of your colleagues, and you came up with all types of silly excuses and eventually find a lower paying job that doesn't require a blood test.

          I think they're both in the wrong.

          Pacquiao for asking for a cutoff

          and Floyd for asking for the tests in the first place, and then running away when pac agreed to his orginal offer plus seven more days.

          Floyd more wrong than Pacquiao though.

            Most boxing-casual fans/experts/fighters/reporters would agree with you on that. But I guess IMDAZED and RELOADED don't think so, so it really don't matter what they think. If only we could convince them *****s.

              Look at how idiotic their analogy is. They liken Pac to an employee. A guy with 7 titles in 7 divisions. That's more like an employer than employee! That's how ****** these people are. I suspect that they can't stand an asian midget refusing to bow down to their idol. Unbelievable nuthuggery.

                  I'm not a Manny nuthugger. And I have my own brain. Kinda sucks for you, right? I really am sorry, Ali...that you couldn't debate the finer points without your head exploding. Stick to the "I'm right, you're a *****" post. It works for you. Everyone has their own lane.

                      Then you have to look at who is trying to make the fight and who has the history of going on vacation.
