[hanzoh74]

I agree with OP

Newsflash..... This video was made way after testing was no longer an issue. Why is Floyd still using it as an excuse?

Saying you will take drug testing 2 years later means nothing.

Were Leonard, Haggler and Duran at the negotiating table? Than they don't have secret information, your guy said he was scared of needles but he got tats, he was juicing.

Pac fanboys will say floyd is to blame
Floyd fanboys will say pac is to blame

Reality is that both f**kers are to blame and never showed real intention of fighting each other, Floyd by coming with more and more stipulations and Manny with the classic "hmmm ask to my promoter bob arum". Both guys just wanted to continue making millions fighting guys way below their skills.

And that is the best answer, I think you could say both sides wanted the fight but only on their terms. Arum wanted to control the fight to do his normal thing which Manny allowed to happen and Floyd wanted to really cash in.

There is plenty of blame to go around though and everyone involved deserves their fair share.

Both these guys ducked each other.

Hagler thought Floyd wanted Manny to be tested and not himself LOL , Leonard dont blame Floyd and said he beats Manny , and Duran is a jealous hater .

The bottom line , Manny walked out on a 50/50 offer in the biggest fight in history because he did not want to take OST , and the irony is its the same OST he is now forcing on a B grade bum , obviously Manny dont get weak any more , that was only for Floyd .

And Manny lied to get out of it he fabricated a BS story about getting weak from taking blood , he does not get weak from taking blood thats why he dont care about cut of dates with Rios .

Because he put the first obstacle in the way of OST. That's were all the problems began. Floyd never asked anyone for testing before manny.

This is such a lame short sighted comment , everything starts at some place and everything has a first time , and isnt Rios the first time Manny asked anyone to take OST .
