Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: I'm Waiting For Mayweather To Sign a Contract

[WarriorSoul]

Or maybe, Team Pacquaio has spent a lot more time than Team Mayweather putting the PR spin on the issue.

Plausible, but naaaaaaaaaaahh.

You should point your fingers at Ellerbe and ODLH for spinning the issue.

Yeah, you're right. I do. The same way Floyd accepted his demands.

What demands are you talking about, they agreed on certain terms as what a proper negotiation is all about. Floyd initially DEMANDED the fight to be done at 154lbs., Manny countered that it should be at 147lbs, fair enough. Floyd demanded a bigger ring, Manny countered for the STANDARD size, fair ofcorz. Floyd demanded for an exclusive 10oz. gloves, Manny countered for the standard 8oz., fair again. Then they set for a 10mill penalty for coming in over weight, what's so unfair with that if Floyd wouldn't do the same stunt he did with the Marquez fight then there's no problem, no penalty... Then Floyd DEMANDED for an OST...

Yeah but watching them try to talk around it is so hilarious. Ariza's pissed because Pacquiao is not adhering to his "program."

"program"...hahahahah... Get on the Floyd Joy Mayweather Sr. lane. cuckoo, cuuckoo!!!

That camp talks so much so its not at all a surprise.

Not only Ariza. Kontz slipped up on the first episode of 24/7 Pacquaio-Margarito and admitted that they asked for a 7 day cutoff for the USADA testing when the world was of the belief that Pac had agreed in full. Its amazing that all of the Mayweather bashers have totally ignored that.

Absolutely. I didn't see the 3rd installment, I'll check it out when I get to the crib.

Prove the first bolded.

Prove the second bolded.

Prove the third bolded.

I mean, you're all about proof, right?

Right, I know. The bigger issue is that people don't like Floyd and they love Manny. So certain things like get overlooked by the masses.

In the end, both fighters are being a little ridiculous. But, the reason I side with Mayweather is because he's the only one that's been somewhat consistant through the soap opera. Pac's camp has been all over the place. And, they've made on contradiction after another that has been well documented (to those paying attention) on this very site. Mayweather's stance after the first negotiations fell apart was simple. And that was in none of his future fights would any cutoff date be accepted. So IMO, Pac agreeing to 14 days, and now 7 days is irrelevant because he's agreeing to things that he knows aren't gonna be accepted.

Mayweather ****ed all you guys up the ass with this OST nonsense

and you ALL continue to take it and love it

I feel so bad for you guys. You dont seem to understand he ****ed boxing yet still defend his position.

None of you know a damn thing about steroids either yet, which makes it even more sad.

This is not about steroids, if it was you all would be petitioning every sanctioning body to make EVERY boxer do OST tests. Yet there isnt any petition going on here on this site.

Wow, a person with common sense.

Anyway, that's the bottom line. It doesn't matter if Floyd is on vacation, in jail or in church. If Pacquiao is still on that BS regarding testing, what's the point of negotiating?
