      Another ****** comeback. Pac was not refusing the test. The disagreement was the cut-off day.

      Unless you post a more intelligent response, I'm done with you.

        It all seems fishy to me that a few blood tests made one camp so shook that they dropped all negotiations.

        Ducking at its finest. Manny should step down.

          sometimes when your on top. you need to realize what is the best for you.

          that is what floyd is doing.

          boxing at first for floyd is challenging thats the first beginning of

          fame, win fights and never loss.

          after floyd leaves arum, and floyd stop fighting legit WW and retires.

          in this days his fans challenge him to do this and that.... he did some of them.

          floyds missing is only pac... and that fight will never happen coz of money etc

          etc... and that sucks.

            and what happened when PAC agreed to the Floyd chicken test? Pick one or all...you can't be wrong.

            1. PAC must take whatever money Floyd give him and be happy.

            2. The fight can only happen on May 5th.

            3. PAC must leave Arum.

              When floyd steps in the ring, he knows the chances he is going to take less punches than his opponents and no one will hit him with too much, so if he still cherry picks and avoids, i dont know where that leaves Floyd really?

              Of course he has every right to be petrified of some boxer who hits extremely hard and he dont want to feel hurt, even if its one punch, but at worse he wont take that many, he knows that. So maybe Floyd is in the wrong sport, because he wont fulfill his true potential with that attitude. Which boxers is he scared of? Is it Sergio Martinez and Pac? Well the most philosophical way to view it, is countless boxers with far less ability than Floyd has dared step in the ring with Sergio and pac without lasting damage, so if Floyd is saying its too risky and he has to think carefully, im really lost for words.

              I really dont think FLoyd has a place in the top 30ATG. Pac is top 5 already.

                and a cut off date kills the purpose of being tested in the first place.

                bottom line is they dont want to fight eachother, immature fans can pretend its all one fighters fault all they want but the bottom line is if either fighter really wanted the fight it wouldve been made by now. with the public demand thats out there they couldve easily put the other guy on the spot and forced him to fight yet they choose not to.

                im starting to think manny and floyd made some kind of deal to take turns making lame excuses to kill the fight so they dont have to fight eacother and both get away with it somewhat clean.

                but it doesnt really matter. they are both terrible for the sport.. just terrible. idk why ppl dont just focus on the guys who still want to be fighters and not just sit back and reap the benefits. guys like martinez, donaire and ward. guys with world class skill and a will to prove themselves to go with it. floyd and manny are businessmen, they stopped being fighters a long time ago.

                  This right here. Seems like ts wanted to bash Floyd, but he would have to take a long look at Pacman & dump his a$$ too. Picked Cotto, but wouldn't fight cotto at a decent weight. Floyd's doing it.

                    Should i give Floyd his bravery award or should you? Floyd has rested on his backside long enough now, so at the very least you or i should expect Floyd should fight Cotto at 154 by now without boasting ang gloating about it!!
                    How much more of a career has floyd got left now, cant be that much?

                    Pacs already bashed margarito up for Cotto, and bashed Cotto up for Floyd. How much did Margarito weigh when he fought Pac? Has anyone that small ever beat Margarito like that, or even dared step in the ring with him, regardless of whether Margarito had titles, hes still dangerous.

                      Whenever I want a good laugh, I read what you post. You know absolutely nothing about boxing, yet somehow post away without fail!! LOL!!

                      You're counter to Jro in your sig proves it. More skills but can't apply it, get serious. All you have to do is move & Pacman can;t apply skill, lol!! Funny guy.
