    Did you not read the part "every significant part was agreed upon?" Open your mind. Don't let your dislike for one person cause you to have tunnel vision.

      Imagine everything agreed until that ****** unprecedented demand for OSDT.
      Roach just told you it was their fault, but you still blame Floyd! It was also a move that has cleaned up the sport! And you can thank Floyd for that! You can probably thank him for Pac not getting tko's in years! Peds gone now!

        That is not the first time they have admitted to that.

        But lets not forget the cut that was going to take more than 6 months to heal, the special Vegas Stadium that is going to get built by Bob, etc, etc...

        That fight timing in 09 couldn't had been better

          Lets not forget, when Manny accepted testing, then Floyd wanted it close to the fight. Also, lets not forget, "My health is more important".

            Let's not forget. FMJ stipulation was no 'cut off' period. He negotiated in good faith to 14 days. After Manny consulted the 'mixologist' Ariza, he was advised that his system wouldn't be clean by then. So that means no fight.

                Reading some of the post here- Even when Manny's team ADMITS they were wrong at one point, Floyd haters will still find a way to blame Floyd.. can't have a fair discussion with other boxing fantastics on here if you're bias. Can't let your dislike for one person cloud your judgment.

                  Roach is wrong, how could it be their fault if PAC was with Arum. Floyd will never do business with Arum.

                      Pacquiao robbed us of having this fight in both men's primes. His legacy will always reflect that.
