He's obviously cool with it because the offers are running out and there aren't many to consider fighting anymore. Didn't that ever occur to you?, hell he's fighting the second fighter moving up in weight next, usually it's Pacquiao making the move up. Not only that but since others were subjected to the random blood testing and accepted it, the procedure is obvious and clear now. Especially with the public accepting it and different fighters adopting it for their own fights. The Amir Khan situation pretty much welcomed the idea only recently.
Exactly, he and Top Rank are ready for the big cash out with Floyd, and it's why I won't be buying the fight if it ever does come off. **** that.
Paul Williams trainer & manager This content is protected works closely with Floyds advisor Al Haymon in directing the career of Paul Williams.
I was hoping you would address the entire post rather than what you only agreed with. To answer that, I don't blame you but don't believe you either. If it does happen a lot of frustrated fans would be the first to purchase it as the fight comes close. The obvious frustration is there for a reason. :yep
I refuse to give in to the shenanigans. Just so we're clear I feel Floyd is being just as ignorant as pac in blocking the fight with his no PPV offer as Pac was in his turning down blood tests. Shameful stuff.
It wasn't unusual. Extra testing has been asked before in the past. How long have you been watching boxing? What was unusual is that Manny wanted not only a cut off but to be notified when they were coming as well. That is what got people's suspicions flowing. Not the Mayweather clan making baseless accusations. How people can't fathom that is beyond my understanding. And asking someone pay 10 mill per pound was out of the ordinary. Tell me a fight that had that severe of a stipulation before.
So now he knows what's going on in the Floyd/Pac negotiations? Is he Al Haymon's right hand man as well. Yeah I will take that with a grain of salt. Using this logic, lets speak on Ariza saying it's all Arum fault for why this fight hasn't happened. Since he is actually apart of the camp, is his word gospel?
Extra testing isn't exactly the definition here, if it was then we'll both agree. Please name me professional fights where olympic style testing, similar to the ones Mayweather is requesting, were applied. If there are fights out there I have witnessed only to overlook those procedures then I stand corrected. Still that doesn't make this demand normal for this fight. It's only normal today because this is 2 years later. That's no issue at all because we both know Mayweather is a professional and won't schedule a fight at a weight he's struggling to make. For someone like Mayweather this is hardly pressure, he's making the weight limit he's comfortable at and IF he screws up he has to pay for it and the fight won't be canceled. Obviously Roach's camp want this fight to happen regardless, it's Pacquiao's career/reputation on the line in the biggest fight of his life you know.
