    What do you mean? Pacquiao wouldn't take the damn test. Everyone was pushing Pacquiao, the whole boxing world and he wouldn't take the testing. Now the Mayweather hate and the Pac tardation are subsiding more people are seeing it for what it was. Pacquiao ducking.

      The excuses...Lol..the whole world was pushing Pacquaio?LMAO...that dudes same answer after every fight is, I fight who they put in front of me, and that's EXACTLY what he does...

      the whole world, including myself, even cats in the barber shops, was wondering why Floyd Mayweather, was trying to force Olympic style testing on Manny Pacquaio, based on what? A su****ion that he was juiced, that he knew damn well he couldn't prove? and when Manny Pacquiao walked in the negotiations, Floyd was, la di da di cool with it, not too much of a chase by Floyd to me there.


      This ain't Pretty Boy Floyd, this is Money May, and I am of the opinion that "Money" Mayweather is just about the biggest payday, for the absolute least amount of risk possible, and obviously the person, who started this thread, noticed that right you see Floyd, is running around hyping up an opponent, like it was GGG he was about to step in the ring with or something, when he knows he can beat this guy, on his worst night, with one hand tied behind his back...was there that same effort in his pursuit of a Pacquaio fight in 2009? In my opinion absolutely not.

        Excuse? Manny literally ran away. What more can you do when someone isn't willing to prove they are clean?

          Lol..he already proved that he's clean by passing the tests, for which he never failed a test... he didn't have to do anything special to appease Mayweather, and if ya don't get that, I do...Mayweather roadblocks with the typical excuses imo

          Ya'll just don't get it and please don't spin s**t away from the topic. The question is, why didn't Mayweather chase Manny. If Manny ran, in this f**ked up age of social media promoting, Mayweather didn't put up much of a chase, but with this dude McGreagor, Floyd is like that cartoon character Savior Faire on social media, he's everywhere. Lol.

            Going to mediation, offering 14 day cuts offs. Mayweather tried to make that fight, Pacquiao ducked.

              Sure...he took the tests years after the fact. More than enough time to clean up. Lol @ roadblocks. Anyone with half a brain cell would've realised exactly who was at fault there. Hint, it was the guy that was scared of needles.

              And an egomaniac like Floyd agreeing to a 50-50 split is the very definition of chasing a fight.

                Chasing? McGregor isn't running, he wants the fight. Pacquiao didn't.

                    Floyd Maywetaher told Max Kellerman

                    When asked about why not fight Pacquiao in a rematch to squash that shoulder excuse instead of fighting Conor McGregor

                    Floyds answer was, its about fighting SMARTER not HARDER
                    That means he is picking Conor because it will be an easier fight than a rematch with Pac.

                    I dont get why these Floyd fans cant see that, heck him chasing Conor like this shows it, he never chased Pac this way, Floyd is even willing to do business with Dana White who openly hates Floyd and said he doesnt wnat to do business with him. UFC fighters have a history of ped usage, Nate Diaz said Conor was on Peds and bulked up, yet Floyd aint even saying you must take the test first. He is just saying I want to give the fight the fans wnat, what fans? I didnt see a singl fan crying for conor vs floyd, its a spectacle fight that causals will order but nobody cried for this fight the way they cried for that Pacquiao fight in 2009-2011

                      cool...at least you cats can say, Floyd Mayweather, really really chased that Pacquaio man. He tried to make a fight by actually showing up to the negotitation, and after all, he did offer 14 days cutoff on tests that wasn't even mandatory at the time...how generous...

                      Pacquaio ducked...that's a good one...a dude who has a long standing track record of fighting everybody they put in front of him, is ducking a cherrypicking defensive fighter who fights on his terms only ...

                      Olympic style testing and all the other shenanigans was Mayweathers fear of losing to the dude on some legit prime for prime, p4p s**t imo...

                      he tried to make that fight is all you cats need I guess and you good...
