    floyd would be remembered as the fighter who ducked the his biggest challenge. osts are not compulsory and pac has never failed a drugs test. his legacy will be tarnished if he doesnt fight pac. pac will look like the dude that didnt want to be bullied by the mayweathers.

    I've been saying for years that Floyd and his team do not want the fight and they're just making excuses with their outrageous demands. It will never end.

    If Manny agrees to OSDT, I said they would just come up with another excuse.

    Now it's Manny has to train in the U.S.?

    F-that!

    Manny is the P4P champ, he should be calling the shots.

    In fact, the fight should be in Manila and Gayweather should have to train in PI.

    Wow, what a creative way on how to spin things of who's really avoiding the fight.

    Funny though.

    After seeing decisions like Alexander-Matthysse and Williams-Lara, I don't even think Pac should fight Mayweather in the US, much less be obligated to train here.

    That depends on who's telling the story. Pac from another prespective could be looked at as the fighter who had something to hide and passed up a defining moment of his career because of a simple blood test. All of Foyd titles have been earned, he never fought for a vacant title and since he arrived in the welter weight division everyone he's fought have been in creditable positions at that point in there career. You can't say the same for Manny. All Floyd has to do is stay on the route he's on now and his legacy will be fine.

    It's not funny at all it's actually sad. Considering how many people back Manny (the good guy) and he won't give his fans what they want. Keep in mind it was Manny who ran out on the negotiation not Floyd.

    No other boxer in recent memory has been called a coward on national television. That says a lot about how the mainstream media and most boxing fans view Floyd right now. His legacy will look even shittier in the future unless he fights THE MAN.

    Floyd: I lost the urge
    Floyd: I'm taking a vacation
    ...
    Floyd: Your next Pacman
    Arum: We agree to the full random drug test
    Floyd: ...
    Floyd: I would love to fight Khan

    The difference between the first time and the second time is, the first time both parties agree to the events that were taken place. The second time only one party agrees. So because of that it's hard to say what was going on the second time around.

    I do remember hearing Floyd say during the Ortiz press conference that he would fight Pac if he takes a random blood test. So if Arum or Pac is not bull shitting then we should see a Pac vs Mayweather fight. If this is another loop hole from Arum (the devil himself) then we will not. The bad thing about it all is, if he does fight Khan who happens to come from the same camp as Manny, then what would Manny and arum excuse be then?

    Actually, 2 out of 3 parties agree. Or did you forget there was a third party negotiator/mediator involved in Ross Greenburg?

    Ok but the main person that matter did not and that's Floyd unlike the first time when Floyd and Manny agreed to the actions taken place.
