    That's such bull****. If he said past 2 or 3 months then maybe I would have accepted it, but this is a flat out lie

    Bob is lying of course but it is not the only thing holding up the fight. There are more factors and Bob is one of them.

    Everything Pac says is a rehash of what Roach, Arum, Ariza, Konz put in his head. If they were more positive about the fight then Manny would be more positive about the fight.

    Roach first came out with the he will not have it in his fighters head with the blood testing. Pac talking about he is in heavy training so he can't accept 14 days has Roach all over it. Mayweather isn't the commission is Roach or Arum. Pac saying he is happy with what he has accomplished and doesn't need Mayweather has Roach and Arum all over it.

    I really don't think Pac gave a **** from the beginning with any of the negotiation stuff as long as he got his money. I think it has always been Roach and Arum trying to protect there investment from any issue that they feel may have a negative impact and put all this **** in his head.
     

  7. if there's 3 reasons why the fight is being held up Arum is 2 of the reasons.

    Bob's got a sweetheart deal with Manny. Bob isnt one to turn down this kind of money and he's well aware that PAC can beat Floyd. It's a gamble that is worth the risk knowing the revenue that will be generated will make everyone even richer.

    Bob didn't come up with the accusations nor did he come up with the demands for special testing.....that was all Floyd.... If there were 3 reasons for this fight not happening we can blame one of the 3 personalities Floyd has. We have Money, Pretty Boy and Floyd....take your pick

    Unless Pac has a phobia of blood testing or is taking steroids there is absolutely no reason for blood testing to have ever been an issue in the first place regardless if it was asked for. And supposedly it isn't an issue now so there for blood testing isn't inconvenient request. Just like Roach asking for a 10mil pd penalty isn't a inconvenient request.

    Unless Floyd has a phobia of PAC or was looking for a way out of having to fight him there's no reason to spread accusations that were false and demands additional testing to begin with.

    And PAC had every right to not give in to Floyd's demands after how unprofessional and irresponsible Floyd was with his words. PAC agreed to the demands, calling Floyd's bluff. And Floyd has reacted exactly the way most thought...he's still avoiding the fight.

    You are aware, in the ENTIRE boxing world, of all the world Champs and guys who put their asses on the line, only ONE guy has asked for that style of testing. ONLY ONE. And then, he ONLY asked for it when it became clear who everyone wanted him to face.

    I don't know how some of you cannot see what MOST people are on to, that this test issue was Floyd's way to avoid facing Pac, and keeping an excuse that people will buy.

    As for the ten mill penalty, you and I know exactly WHY that was brought up. Here's the thing. If there were no penatly, and Floyd didn't make weight. Pac would be completley justified NOT fighitng that night. And everyone involved loses millions, and law suits would not be our of the ordinary. And ultimately, WE ths fans lose out.

    Floyd brought this upon himself by refusing to weigh what he was supposed to vs. JMM, and not even attempting to lose the weight. What's to stop him from simply doing that again?
