    So by your logic, since Floyd is proven to be the "real cash cow/draw" he has a right to tell Pac to take random testing?

Pacquiao should nut up and be a man and fight Marquez. Outside of Mayweather, its the only fight that makes sense.
      well, i for one dont want to watch pac vs mosely because its a mismatch and would rather pac fight sergio or someone at 140...but as far as what "the people want or dont want" is a bit blurred...we really dont know if pac vs marquez would sell better than pac vs mosely...if pbf vs marquez did 1 million buys and *****'s here says that PBF is a more PPV draw than manny...the outcome of the pac vs marquez would do less than 1 million...by that reasoning i think bob would likely choose mosely as pac's opponent to push those PPV numbers up because pbf vs mosely drew 1.4M PPV buys...more PPV means more people watched, it also means that is "what the people want"

          Absolutely, but check, the main point that I took from that article was.....

          "Manny Pacquiao has come under fire for..... rejecting his request..... because Pacquiao himself has used catch-weights in several of his biggest fights"

          The question was about boxing integrity.....
          ..... and Koncz replied " hard luck cvnts, we make the rules "

          WTF?

              LOL, Pacquiao has a potential drawing power slightly less than or equal to Maywather. Hence the tough negotiating back and forth. Marquez has small relative drawing power. It's just the way it is.

                Gizmo's question was......

                So, if Manny can pull all that catchweight bull**** because "he is the draw"..... then Manny should agree to random blood testing when Mayweather requests because in that fight "he is the draw"

                Get it ?

                  Just to inform you 141-147lbs is Welterweight.......Pacman fought between that welterweight limit!!!

                  Pacman vs Crybaby Marquez could still be made at 147lbs!!! Pacman will definitely weight at that limit and Crybaby Marquez could fight at what weight he is comfortable as long as it's not over 147lbs....Crybaby could even fight at his best weight of 135lbs for all I care as long as its not over 147!

                  WHO IS MARQUEZ TO DICTATE THE TERMS OF THE FIGHT?!!!

                  just plain and simple...

                    How the *** does " because I am the draw ", answer a question regarding questionable fights won by imposing weight restrictions, but then refusing to meet other opponents at a fair weight?

                    That is saying, " , hard luck, I am being a b1tch because I can ".

                    Doesn't anyone else see that ?
