    It goes hand and hand. Who is Manny to ask for a 10 million dollar weight penalty? I honestly don't believe that Hagler knows that Floyd and Manny are taking the same test. I think he believes that Floyd is asking Manny to take a test but Floyd isnt taking the same one.

    What Pacquaio (A super lightweight) did against Margarito (A super middleweight) was truly as impressive a feat as any in boxing history.

    Because an ex-convict said so.

    Of course, there's a difference here. Pac has never failed a test, but Floyd cheated Marquez on the catchweight. Pac had a factual basis to believe Floyd might do the same with him, whereas Floyd just has speculation on his side.

    There probably is no answer. Some medical genius will always get his hands on an elite athlete like Marion Jones, cut a money-making deal and give her a substance that will beat the most updated tests. Some things, like the war on drugs are insolvable.

    How did I reply like a hysterical woman? Please inform me. I did answer the question. He/she said you dont let someone bully you in negotiations. Hagler did it with Leonard etc. All I said is he asked for a drug test. Him being a bully in negotiations would be something like asking for more than 50-50 with drug testing and glove size/ring size. I dont constantly post Manny doesnt want to be tested. Also my feelings don't get shook over people on the internet. So I dont get the drama queen comments.

    The fight wasn't going to be at a catchweight though.

    You know the difference right? See, this is I believe you being disingenuous again. You know why Pac asked for this, bcause of what FLOYD DID vs. Marquez. His requrest was based on Floyd's unprofessionalism. Floyd asking Pac to be tested additionally is based on his crack head daddy planting doubt in his head.

    You have no reason to think this other then that's what you want to think. :patsch

    The point is, JMM and Floyd came to an agreement. Whether or not it's a catchweight isn't the point. Flolyd and JMM agreeed to fight at 144. JMM made it, Floyd rushed to get the contract chagned that morning because he didn't try to make 144. So sauna. No running. Nothing.

    That's the reason for Pac's weight stip. To make sure Floyd doesn't pull that **** again. Why does that need to be explained to knowledgable boxing fans?:huh

    the real element of Pacs game that has improved over the past 10 yeas is his skill development

    Yea I know the difference. Unless Floyd vs Manny was going to be at a catchweight, a 10 million dollar penalty is unnecessary. I do believe it was Floyd's dad that told him to make Manny take random drug tests.

    First of all, in no divorce case would a husband be forced to take a lie detector test to see if he cheated on his wife. Lie detector tests are not admissible in courts of law. So, he could proudly tell the prosecutor to go jump in the lake. Secondly, Pacman as a proud man will simply not bow down to Mayweather's silly demands and fight other terrific fighters and continue to show the fans why he is P4P, No.1.
