    Not sure what's gonna happen bro but one of the two camps is gonna have to give in on the issue and we all know how stubborn Mayweather is.

    My guess would be that Pacquiao will eventually agree to the tests and as a concession the promotion will be handled by Top Rank, with Mayweather Promotions as a secondary partner! Expect Golden Boy to be frozen out if Pacquiao agrees to be tested and trained in America!

    Just my 2 cents!

    Roach is 0-1 against Floyd, this cannot be disputed.

    Khan could not even hit McCloskey flush, and he is supposed to beat Mayweather??:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    pacquiao training exclusively in america would not gonna happen unless he is willing to pay more taxes. there is a new rule that would limit a foreigner's stay in USA in a certain period. around 180 days in 3 years and it started in 2009. so if they would fight in 2012, pacquiao could have used almost all his 180 days already by the time he fights floyd.

    he should just pay the taxes bro, he is earning american dollars he should pay the tax bill. Chances are none of us will ever see the fight, but if by some miracle they get it signed off then i have a feeling it will be Team Pacquiao who make the necessary concessions!

    do you have any idea how much in thousands or even millions in dollars these additional taxes he has to pay for staying an additional days training in america? an all for what, to satisfy another floyd demand? i wish it was this simple but why do floyd and pacquiao fights in vegas and not in new york? it's really simple, it's because of taxes.

    Let's just hope they come to terms. But Floyd won't be conceding the drug testing issue, no chance. If Pacquiao wants that fight he will have to be randomly tested by USDA, and for that to happen he will have to train at the Wild Card. Hopefully something will give!

    roach got the tactics right but oscar was ignoring him. he abandoned the jab which was the main effective punch for oscar. he had a great jab and floyd couldn't handle it for large parts of the fight. because it disappeared he wasn't working his way in, instead hesitating and giving floyd time to set him self and throw the first shot or draw him in and counter.

    roach was screaming at him to use the jab between every round!

    by the sound of it, it looks like floyd is sure of demanding that pac should train in america exclusively. do you have any source or link that floyd really has this new demand?
