    PRECEDENTS have a weight and bearing on the determination of whether PROBABLE CAUSE can be utilized. Therefore an allegation of Pacquiao being a drug user without due proofs AND PRECEDENTS of him violating any drug usage can be of relevance.

    Mayweather's accusations or allegations just came out of the blue...while his background (precedence come into play again) with run-ins with the law, his family and then some also comes into the play when it comes to CREDIBILITY.

    But back to the main topic of the 10 million per pound clause...there are PRECEDENTS of Mayweather skirting around the issue of weight with his "fight" against JMM...thus the clause.
    That's dumb. You know why? Because this is fabie's reason, not Manny's. So who cares?

      Honestly, because as great Pac is, his team feels he needs every advantage he can get.

      I think Pac could have just as easily beaten Cotto at 147 and Marg at 154.

      In mayweather's case though this is probably true.

        Why are we still talking about negotiations that failed over a year ago?

        FYI there are some good fights on this weekend

          Manny is their cash cow, they have him and the media on their side, so they can demand and get advantages on their side but their demand also shows a lack of confidence in PAC, I think we the fans have more confidence in PAC than his own team does, If not they wouldn't be looking for advantages for him before he even steps into the ring.

              Send me a pm and complain there. The bottom line is, stop making excuses. That's not Manny's reasoning so why is it yours? What are you, his conscience? Please.

                If you can't take reasoning, then stop resorting to childish insults. I have neither insulted nor have I vilified your thoughts. If you can't accept it then so be it.

                  It was a nice try Fabie.

                  I'm sure you knew that coming in this thread armed only with balanced judgement and reasoning wouldn't get you very far.

                  You were outgunned. You used logic and clearly their bias was too strong.

                  Time to go.

                    I take reasoning better than I take excuses. Your post falls into the latter. Again, that's not Manny's reasoning. So who cares? What are you, his lawyer?
