Q: After you challenged him, a week later, Mayweather wished you good luck in your career which seemed to indicate hes not interested in fighting you. He also mentioned that he challenged you twice, and he claims that you turned him down back in 1999 and again in 2006. Did you really turn him down?
A: Like I said, hes really a liar. He likes to lie a lot. In 1999 theres a film where hes fighting in Michigan when he was fighting at 130 and I was fighting at 135, and I asked him, like when HBO does the prefight analysts talk to the fighters before they fight. I talked to him, and hopefully its recorded somewhereI think it was on FXI asked him, Are you planning on coming up to lightweight to fight me? And he said, No, He had no intention of coming to lightweight to fight me, he wanted t beat Carlos Monzons record. He didnt want to come to lightweight. Thats when I jumped from lightweight to welterweight to fight Oscar De La Hoya. That was the first incident that hes talking about, so he turned me down in 1999.
Now, the other time hes talking about is when I fought three timesone, two, three, back-to-back-to-backand they tried to rush me to fight him right away, like two or three months later. I said, give me a month, and well do it like, I think it was in JanuaryI said, Well do it in January. They wanted to do it in like November or December, and I said, Give me a month and well do it in January or February. They didnt want to do that. So they chose to fight Oscar De La Hoya. I said, Go ahead and fight Oscar, and if you beat Oscar, then lets get busy. Lets do this. He beat Oscarhe didnt want to fight me.
Hes been turning me down. I hate when he continues to say, Oh, he turned me down because of a tooth ache. Yeah. I got head butted in that fight that and my tooth was loose that night. They asked me to fight Mayweather and I said, Give me an extra month, and Ill fight him. He didnt want to fight me, which was cool. He could go and fight Oscar because thats more money. Okay. Thats cool, but after that fight if you winfight me. He didnt want to do that. He chose to retire or fight somebody else. Im getting tired of that lie! They need to wipe that lie out of there. The reporters and stuff, they keep saying it, so that lie needs to be talked about.

A: Like I said, he’s really a liar. He likes to lie a lot. In 1999 there’s a film where he’s fighting in Michigan when he was fighting at 130 and I was fighting at 135, and I asked him, like when HBO does the prefight analysts talk to the fighters before they fight. I talked to him, and hopefully it’s recorded somewhere—I think it was on FX—I asked him, “Are you planning on coming up to lightweight to fight me?” And he said, “No,” He had no intention of coming to lightweight to fight me, he wanted t beat Carlos Monzon’s record. He didn’t want to come to lightweight. That’s when I jumped from lightweight to welterweight to fight Oscar De La Hoya. That was the first incident that he’s talking about, so he turned me down in 1999.
Now, the other time he’s talking about is when I fought three times—one, two, three, back-to-back-to-back—and they tried to rush me to fight him right away, like two or three months later.

If he wanted to fight why wouldn't he just take the drug tests? Why would he want an outrageous 50/50 split?
Freddie roach even said it was their fault the fight didn't happen earlier.
Immediately after they settled out of court for Floyd false accusations, Manny agreed to testing and Floyd went on the excuse trail. TBE...The Best Excuses.
