    What the TS is trying to say is Mayweather claims that he is trying to clean the sport up with OSDT ... yet, he hasn't done much to achieve this aside from pacquiao. If he was serious about it he would be working with the commission and force his own stable of fighters to take the same stance.

    Not saying the blame is purely on May... but its a question Floyd fans can't seem to answer

    He can't tell other men who are not in the financial position to support this testing how to structure their fights. What he CAN do is lead by example, especially for CLEAN fighters, especially champions, who want CLEAN fights. When ENOUGH fighters and FANS request CLEAN matches guess what? This testing will cost fighters, especially up and coming fighters, NOTHING. Him forcing this on other fighters would be insane because most fighters don't even generate the purses to cover it.

    We answer it REPEATEDLY. It is just not an answer that you guys like to hear. So now answer, why is it you guys refuse to recognize the economics of this?

    Yes it is. There is no argument for Pacquiao being the better in ring talent. Fighting better oppoents, Beating better oppoents or acomplishing more than Mayweather has.

    Floyd catching up. Ortiz victory was big. I would've expected Pac getting 99%-100% of this vote before that fight.

    So why don't Pac just call Floyd bluff and take the damn test? There's two reasons why a fighter wouldn't do this.
    1. He really don't want this fight
    2. Or he's really on some ****

    Biggest Payday in any fight and your not going to take a test to clear your name of any wrong doing, and miss out on all that money? B.S. Pac don't want to see Mayweather in that square circle period.

    Where have you been living under a rock??? Mayweather lost his "URGE" and went on vacation. He didn't say that Pac won't take the test with 2nd round of negotiations... hahaha :smoke

    Floyd made what, 25-40 million? Cmon, he couldn't afford the hundred thousand dollars or so to test his fighters like Jesse Vargas? That proves he's not serious about his claims, so why should anyone take his demands for Pac to be tested seriously?

    "Mayweather Promotions baby..we're here to clean up the sport"...BULL**** they are

    Just remember it is OSDT that is not really OSDT. It is floyd fantasy test. It is to give him the feeling that he is running boxing. ARR have a vacation to get over it.
