    You fail to keep things in perspective man. PAC only acted with resistance due to Floyd's damaging statements that came out of left field. PAC wasn't about to let Floyd dictate anything after acting in such a irresponsible manner at PAC's expense.

    PAC never said it was a tramatic experience... PAC just said he feels weakened by having Blood taken from him and that's a claim he's held for a long time. Unlike Floyd's view about Manny and what kind of threat he poses as a potential opponent.

    Could you imagine if A PLAYER from an opposing team demanded additional testing for their opponents that were outside the commissioned required tests? And if they didn't test they would play?:lol: There's a reason no one can side with Floyd and it's b/c nothing he's doing makes sense. He's all over the place and inconsistent with his stance. I will say that he's sticking to his drug testing requirements.

    Everybody should be tested properly for substances that can improve their performance that all current testing doesn't catch. If you don't believe that, then you're a ******, you're a ****** because you know full well that the current testing does not catch all PED's, yet you're willing to just throw your arms up and say **** it. I say **** that, if sanctioning bodies/commissions etc.. do not get the ball rolling on it, it's up to the fighters to do so.

    the prblem with this argument is that this can be a double edge sword. It was brought up to clean up the sport and at the same time to have a mental effect to the opponent. You see, this is not the standard and that is the reason why this will never fly with other fighters. Other boxers will do this for the latter.

    It will only have a mental effect on third worlders who believe in superstitious nonsense. i.e Manny and his fans. :good



    Thats what nobody in the Phillipines wears bad socks. Because if you where bad socks you are likely to be schooled by a Mexican.

    Yes, I can definitely agree with this. For the sake of the sport, I truly hope he isn't doping. It would be one of the biggest let downs.

    I agree it'll be used for mind games for sure but it doesn't stop it from being necessary.

    Pac's expense? How exactly has he been hurt in this situation? Furthermore, Pac demanded that Mayweather pay $10M per lb. he was overweight. He's also demanded that other fighters come in under the maximum weight limit. What's wrong with him complying with a demand for a change? If Pac didn't want to take the test, just come out and say that you don't want to give in to his demands. However, don't come out and start trouting out a bunch of lies.

    Manny is a liar. He claimed he needed 30 days to recover from a blood test even though he took a blood test 24 days before the Hatton fight. He is a grown man, not a ****in child. Why do we keep treating him like one? Your typical adult knows damn well that having a teaspoon of blood taken is not going to weaken you. I can understand him not wanting to get test within a couple of days of the fight. However, he turned down a 14 day cutoff. There's no justification there.

    Your analogy is completely flawed. NFL players have a union and a CBA. Players don't have the authority to demand **** outside of the CBA. In boxing, you don't have a union or a CBA. Fighters have every right to negotiate these sorts of things in the contract. This isn't even the first time it's been done. And talk about inconsistent stances, Pacquiao has given has changed his stance on this issue about 5 or 6 times.

    As far as I remember during the first(the only serious) negotiations money has been an issue, Mayweather openly demanded more money.

    All fighters demand based on their accomplishments and where they are in boxing. Pacquiao as the #1 P4P didn't try to introduce a new set of rules for one fight, did he?, his demands were as normal as any other before him. Mayweather demanded to add new rules for this one fight which is the olympic style drug testing. If that's nothing new then why didn't he demand that Marquez or all previous opponents take the blood tests?

    They agreed on a 50/50 split, money was not an issue.

    A $10M per lb. overweight clause is not normal. It's not even normal to have any sort of overweight clause unless the opponent is coming down in weight.

    I don't understand why supposed boxing fans don't understand the ins and outs of the sport. These two are independant contractors. They have the right to negotiate any stipulations they want, as long as they don't contradict commission rules. This has been going on for as long as the sport has been around; extra stipulations being added that is.
