Is Floyd booking the MGM just another method of ducking by dictating time and place?

    wtf does that have to do with what im posting. you read my posts and dig out some trivial quote that might not fall in line with what im saying and post it like its going to disprove what i said? you are so used to arguing on a fanboy level that you cant just analyze an argument and adress the meat of the argument.
    tell me, out of all those people everyone says floyd ducked, do you think any of those times it was floyds fault that the fight didnt get made?

    Wasn't it common knowledge that Pac blamed on of his losses on having blood taken close to a fight? The professional fight circle is pretty small. Floyd would have known about this. Personal experience tells me that a cut off date would be reasonable. I had some ***** turn my arm black and blue and sore as hell because she wasn't paying attention.

    The crazy thing is that they actually agreed to it at first but later backed out and started with the cut offs and excuses. Now they trying to say Floyd is ducking Manny by booking the MGM and saying the little fellow is the fight they want to make. Its okay for Arum to book a venue and set a date but Floyd can't. **** is mad crazy. :lol:

    HOW IS IT REASONABLE WHEN ARUM IS RECENTLY QUOTED AS SAYING THEY'D TEST UP UNTIL THE DAY OF..

    IF IT EVER WAS REASONABLE, IT ISN'T ANYMORE...ARUMS FAULT ON THAT FOR SAYING THEY'D TEST THEN..
    :deal

    Its common knowledge that his ass blamed that loss on the gloves right after the fight in the ring instead of taking the loss like a man. He got his ass broken down by a body attack and constant pressure. Well Manny turned down a 14 day cut off window when giving the chance. Do you think its reasonable that Floyd went back to full testing after Team Pacquiao played games when it came to the cut offs? They even tried to say he didn't offer it at one point as well.

    :p

    I suppose....it was on youtube somewhere.

    Because on TV, where most folks would have seen, it was socks he blamed it on. Actually, the blood wasn't mentioned until AFTER they'd flown home, where one could deduce they'd had time to come up with something a little more reasonable sounding than "socks".

    Regardless, my friend, the whole thing still swings around the thought Floyd had to be atleast "betting" Pac would turn the whole thing down, or else had Pac accepted it would have surely blew the **** out of Floyd's plan to duck, no?

    Edit: I need to check, it could have been the gloves initially.......

    Again, from personal experience, a 14 day cutoff is reasonable. If you never had some ***** **** up your arm with one of those needles, then you just don't know how bad it can be. I have had it happen to me. Took a week before my arm wasn't sore. That's fact based on personal experience. I think that is one of the reasons the Nevada commission ruled against blood testing. Everything I've seen says blood up to two weeks prior and right after the fight and **** anytime they wanted it should have been good enough for Mayweather. Notice neither guy is talking hair testing? I think BOTH are scared to have the better test.

    floyd never planned on ducking

    It was team Pacquiao who made references that floyd wouldn't accept a March 13 date and he ended up accepting it.

    As I recall they were going to fight Yuri Formane (Team Pac that is) and Floyd could fight someone else after FLOYD HAPPILY ACCEPTED A MARCH 13 DATE.

    TEAM PAC IS TO BLAME..MAYBE ARUM, MAYBE PAC...BUT BOTTOM LINE IS THEY HAD THE 14 DAY CHANCE..THEY HAD THE MARCH 13 DATE CALLED OUT, THEY WERE CAUGHT LYING..

    YEA TEAM MAYWEATHER CLEARLY WANTS THE FIGHT WHILE TEAM PAC IS DUCKING AND GIVING ALTERNATIVE STORIES TO "MAKE EXCUSES FIT"
