**35 PACQUIAO EXCUSES** and counting!! How can people NOT blame Pacquiao

The fact of the matter is that Floyd asked for testing from the start and Team Pacquiao agreed to it but then changed their mind and started asking for a cut off. Roach went around saying how he didn't want Manny getting tested the day before the fight and then once they got a 14 day cut off they came with more excuses. Team Pacquiao don't want it with Mayweather.

 

Blame the promoters and their egos. These guys love money more than the sport.

 

- "Need more time to promote. November is perfect"

 

You forgot those investors, Joe Jackson and Bobby Brown. :roflatsch

 

- "Maywaether may not get a license by the boxing commision"

 

I am fairly convinced, in light of the parade of other excuses, that even if OSDT was never asked for they were gonna have some other reason to NOT fight.

It was perfect escape for them, because the mass fans and media blamed Floyd for it leaving them as the "good guys".

 

"12. Arum said not pushing for fight because Floyd is fighting Guerrero"

- Before that it was "Floyd is fighting Morales so we go with our 4-opponents-list".

 

WELL PUT!

but to summarise

1-20 : Arums a greedy vindictive *******- and Pac is i believe now, not scared- but not confident at all at fighting floyd atm

i think after margarito he was balls out ready- and keen- but since- he knows he s lost a step, fighters of his energetic style slow down at 30-32, and floyd hasnt. the marquez fight has broken his confidence and he s a confidence fighter- all fighters are. i think the fight gets made- but only after manny has a good fight in the interim- a good performance.

so yeah- he s scared.

 

:deal That's what I was tryin' to say too. OSDT just became a perfect excuse to run with....and the # of excuses they popped off to aviod that too was just ****in' amazing.

 

I heard Arum on one interview say people wouldn't pay to see Mayweather's style.

 

I think you are right Team Pacquiao were for whatever reason very nervous about this test.....

 

Isal, don't forget the whole WADA/USADA crock of **** too.

 

:deal :hi: excellent post. Pacquiao is a joke. When you lay the excuses down in a list like that it's simply staggering.

 

I have flip flopped on the PED's, at times I've thought Pac was probably guilty as ****....simply because where I come from it's only one good reason to not take a test..:yep

However, at other times I believe they saw media and fan reactions being negative towards Floyd (what else is new? p) so they ran with it using it as a perfect excuse to not get in the ring and get to be made to look like some Clown Shoes by Floyd.
