    I would love to check it out. Do you have a link to an article that outlines everything that was agreed upon? I don't think Floyd would have been crucified for not taking the OST. Here is the thing... that is not the required standing for testing. At that point it is basically saying I am making a new rule and if you don't follow it I won't play.
    Over the past two years, there's been a lot of uncertainty amongst fans and media alike regarding the events surrounding the negotiations for the mega-fight between pound-for-pound champions Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. In an effort to clear up the confusion, FightHype.com has put together an in-depth timeline detailing every major milestone that took place. From the moment that Floyd Mayweather came out of retirement to the minute that Manny Pacquiao's promoter Bob Arum declared the fight to be off, all of the major events that dominated the headlines are included. Only the facts are included in this definitive timeline. Links to mulitple outside references have been included for each date, so fans can draw their own conclusions as to what went wrong at each step of the way.

    The same link you put but the first round of negotiations....

      Ya but that was proposed during the first time they were negotiating. Check it out:
