    I like how you still managed to suggest that Pac doesn't really want to fight Floyd because he supposedly arranged to fight Marquez when that wasn't even the topic of the discussion. Anyway, whatever, at this point as far as I'm concerned, neither team has shown any real interest to make the fight happen.

    In any case, I guess this whole "Take the test!" thing is just a smokescreen to draw away from what I think is the real reason why this fight hasn't happened yet.... the lack of any real steps being taken by either team to make the fight that's probably due to a lack of conviction to make it happen.

    I never said that or implied that. My point was floyd does not overlook his opponents, pac does, my evidence to back this claim up was the mosley fight, when pac already arranged the marquez fight during the built up.

    Honestly I don't think Pac was overlooking Mosley. Was he confident, yes, definitely. You have to be confident, but being confident is not the same as overlooking your opponent. From all appearances it looked like he trained harder for the Mosley fight than he did for the Margo fight (and on par or maybe even more than the Cotto fight). Plus the caution that Pac displayed during the 1st round of the fight really makes me think that he was expecting a lot more from Mosley.

    edit: to add, there's a difference between not training hard and being confident you'll win because you're overlooking your opponent and training hard and being confident you'll win because you know you put in the hard work needed to win.

    1:47 up to 2:11.

    The guy speaking in regards to what a lot of morons here who said Pac back tracked back to 14 days needs to listen to it again. Listen to the guy talking about the negotiations that happened. They offered 14 days and blood testing on the day of the fight but the commission didn't want it due to the place not being sterile. Besides, Floyd was never tested far beyond 18 days and not during the day of the fight.

    We would test unlimited up to that date and the day after. Pac is right in front of the Camera when it was mentioned. Pac never showed any signs that he was disagreeing.

    :lol: ****er.

    Anyway, it's becoming increasingly clear now that Pac will take the tests. He's said so numerous times, and Arum has stressed the importance of using WADA due to Manny having to train in the Philippines for half of his camp. So I don't know why Floyd is continueing with his "take the test" bull****.

    Floyd not comfortable doing interviews like this these days. When the Pacquiao question came up, his face expression changed and looked more uneasy.

    This is good. Floyd is telling mainstream America straight up that if manny takes the test then we have a fight.
    But then we have Manny who shies away from the question whenvever asked in front of a big crowd
