    Translation: If Floyd is so good, he will fight and beat a juiced Manny Pacquaio.
    Bump

      Why not have this same attitude towards Pac? PED's dont give u skill. PED's dont turn u into a master boxer. At the most it will give u more stamina and strength. If skills wins fights and not muscles/strength, then what's the problem since according to the Mayweathers, Pac aint **** and will be easy work?
      Well well well, Where have you been Deev? Been a while! Back on your haterville thread making way concerning Mayweather? You have been truly missed by a lot of us who have been here since 2004-2005, We didnt forget all your threads on how Mayweather was scared of De la hoya/Hatton/cotto/Margarito or even Zab Judah...

      Welcome back, I see you're on the Pacquiao gravy-train now, I guess hating is a full-time job...

The other guy he was trying to do the ultimate match with, [Floyd] Mayweather, but Mayweather just scandalized it, trying to say he was taking dope or something instead of fighting him. I don't care if someone was taking coal, oil, gasoline, or diesel, offer me twenty million, I'll fight 'em. He could be drinking fire, swallowing fire, I'd fight him (laughing). Whatever they take, the better"
        I wonder if they asked George "if they offer you 20 mill would he take the test"?

          .
          It doesn't.


          But I also notice it doesn't say a fighter can't make a request that are within the rules of the commission.

          Only that the commission has to approve of the request. Making a request is not "setting". The commission "sets", the fighter "requests". But you're too much of a dunce to figure out something so simple.

          Try again.

              Why are you making **** up? No where in those rules does it even mention a fighter requesting anything. If Manny's so called request was about the commission why did PBF have to agree to that request for it to go in the contract? If it was all about the commission PBF wouldn't have had to agree to pay that fine cause that would have been soley left to the commission to decide if $10 mill for every lb over 147 was ok. You adding **** to things that is not there to fit your agenda.

              PBF & Manny's request were both outside the commission and contractual issues nothing more nothing less.

                Yea..they approve the request of the Executive Director that sets the lesser amount. Read below, its in plain english.

                (a) Twenty-five percent of his purse if no lesser amount is set by the Commission’s representative; or
                (b) A lesser amount set by the Executive Director and approved by the Commission,Ê unless the weight difference is 1 pound or less.
                Stop making up stuff to cover for Manny's tail on this issue. Manny goes above the commission when he wants, and its fair game. When someone wants to do it, you guys cry about it.

                      Or are you really that dumb in regards to reading the english language?
