    Would Floyd have ducked Pac if he declined the weight penalty?

    Something that doesn't get brought up too often. Remember when Pacquiao turned down 'up to the fight' blood testing, and wanted a cut off date?

    What if Floyd had said no to the 10 million per pound over weight penalty Pac wanted, and it killed the fight?

    The only reason a fighter should "duck" is due to the other one having ridiculous demands.

    Asking for random drug tests isn't one of them

      .

      Yes it would have been a duck. Also seeing that it is easy for mayweather to make 147.

        I never said that asking for blood tests was ducking the fight. So, answer the question

            Floyd making the 147 Weight = Easy
            Manny accepting the drug testing SHOULD have been easy

                  the weight penalty was appropriate because floyd had a history of comming overweight !!!!!! manny did the right thing to ensure that cheater played by the rules !!!!!! something the courts , his father , and referees such as joe cortez have been unable too doo !!!!!!!!!!!

                    Stop yelling at me.

                    So why did Manny do it to oscar? oscar has never missed weight.

                    Manny has missed weight though, you know that right?
