    It was really about that more than the testing itself, that should be fairly obvious.
    He was the guy in the other corner thats gives him all the rights in the world, he had to take the testing as well it wasnt just for one, as I said before its not the first time Tyson wanted it from Holyfield and Evander had no problems with it.

    It was all about the testing thats the only issue that stopped the fight from happening in 2010 , Manny wanted 50/50 Floyd agreed, Manny wanted a 10 mill weight penalty Floyd agreed., there wasnt a single issue other than Manny refusing random blood and urine ped testing that stopped the fight not one.

        Some Pac fans really think he would have thrown 1000 punches at Floyd, overwhelm him with sheer volume. Sadly, that strategy only works on old, drained fighters.

          punching bags Clottey and margarito made 1000 punches possible

          It wasn’t there when he faced other opponents who weren’t punching bags

            Floyd was using steroids as an excuse. Despite Manny never testing positive. Floyd fought people who tested positive in the past and with no issues. Manny was on tear and walking through guys who Floyd beat by decision.

              Seems more to me like Floyd was very very impressed with Manny's performances and not so confident of winning so decided to insult the guy by implying that he's dirty knowing this would slow down negotiations.

              There was no problem until Floyd caused one and he stopped the fight from happening thus continuing his romantic partnership with Ellerbe unbothered in San Franscico.

                      i'm a floyd fan before he became a cherry picker coward chicken but pacman was on a different level. I think floyd can beat the 130lbs pacman because of size advantage but a 140-147 pacman would be too much for floyd.
