    Any testing Pacquiao does now makes his argument against mayweather look very very weak.

    Agreed. It was clear Manny and his team just never wanted the bout.

    One of the things not talked about but was a huge reason why both sides never agreed on testing.

    Mayweather claims that Manny's camp wanted to be notified when the testers were coming. So it wouldn't matter if there was no cut off or a 7 day cut off or a 14 day cut off. If Manny is to be given prior notice the testers are coming that day then it defeated the purpose. Mayweather has claimed this multiple times and I have yet to see anyone from Pac's camp deny it.

    If that is true then its easy to see why Mayweather would refuse Pac's version of what he agreed to with the testing.

    JASPER,

    But you're not being objective in anyway.

    Everyone says he refused the tests. But they tried to negotiate cut off dates, and could never agree on one.

    He didn't refuse, he came back with a counter offer. He said he didn't want to give blood up to the day of the fight, and he wanted a cut off. He also said he'd be willing to have a test straight after the fight.

    So how could he have benefited if he was cheating?

    The window of opportunity to juice in a 9 week camp would have been tiny.

    He was never going to give into Floyd's demands, just like that, after he'd been slandered.

    You say it makes him look guilty because he wouldn't test.

    But he came back with a counter offer. You're twisting words. He didn't outright refuse, he just countered.

    Now if you think he was cheating, tell me how he'd have gotten away with it?

    Yes Mayweather deserved a bigger share.

    But the biggest stumbling block for the fight not taking place, was the testing. After Manny gave in, in the end, there shouldn't have been an issue.

    Floyd had gotten what he wanted all along.

    But instead of trying to make the fight, he said he wanted the entire PPV revenue.

    You can't just dismiss those actions, and say "It's totally separate." It's relevant. Floyd had finally got what he wanted, but it wasn't enough.

    Demanding the entire PPV revenue in what would have been the biggest fight of all time, was not the actions of man that wanted the fight. If you're not going to take his actions on board, then again, you aren't being objective.

    That fight was estimated to make over $200m.

    How was Manny getting $40m fair, when Floyd would probably have made 3 x the amount?

    It was a joke that wasn't even considered.

    It showed Floyd's mindset at the time.

    He couldn't have been serious about making the fight, trying to pull something like that, yet you're giving him a pass on his actions.

    There is nothing unusual?

    Floyd turned pro in 1996.

    All of a sudden in 2009 he was on a mission to clean up the sport of boxing?

    Floyd Snr, accused Manny of cheating without an ounce of proof, and then Floyd demanded OSDT all the way up to the fight based on the accusation.

    Then as soon as Manny doesn't jump through hoops and say "Yes Floyd, I'll do whatever you want?" he's labelled as a cheater?

    Why is it nobody else had had the same issue fighting Manny?

    Why do you think it's acceptable for Floyd to issue demands based on a wild unsubstantiated rumour, but it's not ok for Manny to refuse, and then counter?

    How does that make any sense?

    If you don't hold Floyd responsible in ANYWAY whatsoever, then again you're not being objective.

    You know Floyd took the **** wanting the all of the PPV, yet you've just completely brushed it to one side.

    Both fighters were responsible for the fight not taking place.

    You are being ridiculous saying that TR are 100% to blame.

    loundon, all he had to was say yes to the test and agree with a cutoff date. its not that hard. the problem was that pacquiao didnt want it to be random, he wanted to know when it was coming. HOW DOES THAT WORK?? Whats the point of do testing when u know its coming. if your job does random testing u think there gonna let u know when its coming? defetas the purpose.

    I dont hold anything to Mayweather. He thought Manny was juciing so he wanted him to take a test (hes gonna take it also) and now everybody is doing it. how did Mayweather know he was gonna say NO?? HE DIDNT! So to say Mayweather used this to duck is crazy. like Mayweather is a phsyic or something now

    Were you complaining this much when Tyson demanded Holyfield take extra testing?
