    so "the man" didn't say?

    you've proven my point right there, nonito. pac stated he felt having blood taken weakened him, long before negotiations with mayweather. everything else is just speculation.

    I think the fact the the question is always 'could pacquiao beat floyd?' not 'could floyd beat pacquiao, tells us who the better fighter is.. like floyd says theyll always keep hypin guys up and building em to beat him.. ain't gonna happen. Personally iv always felt the closest fight floyd could have would of been sergio... maybe not now but a few years ago..

    This fight should of happend like 3 years ago when Manny where supposed to take the god damn test that halted the negotiations the first time.

    I mean there's no excuse for not taking the fight then tbh.

    Um.

    What?

    No, all the members of his negotiating team brought it up directly relating to them justifying walking away from the talks.

    Why don't you Mayweather haters ( Pacturds ) do some research before you make yourselves look ****ish?

    1.Mayweather got 1 dollar more than 8 million to fight Baldo, rather than Marg.

    2.More imprtantly, the subhuman scum ****, who is a hero to all Pacturds ( Arum ) outright lied to Mayweather and said there was no superfight for huge money with Oscar down the road.

    3. Mayweather dumped the greedy Jew, got the lineal title, and 6 months later fought Oscar and got paid more than 25 million dollars.

    Now I understand that Pacturds are an inferior breed to most people, but it surely cant be that hard to work out. To try to claim that Mayweather was afraid of a Mexican useless piece of ****, no better than the useless Argentinian piece of **** he fought to open the gate to the 25 mill v Oscar is taking ****ishness to a new level even for Pacturds.

    Simple research debunks this, here you go;


    Arum said while Mayweather would have taken the $8 million to fight Margarito, he asked for a $10 million guarantee to fight opponents such as Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton, when Arum was only willing to guarantee $7 million.

    beating kermit cintron does not automatically give you a shot at mayweather - at least baldomir beat judah.....

    margarito since cintron 'beat' cotto, got done for loaded gloves, and then lost 3 of his next 4 fights....

    so yeah, floyd "retired rather than face tony"

    I see you haven't been around long enough to know about this thing, here;

    "Let's be very clear on the real issues we differ on. It's not about being tested. Manny is onboard with that since it's such a major concern of Floyd Mayweather, Jr. It's about who does the testing and the scheduling of the procedures. Manny will submit to as many random urine tests requested. Regarding the blood tests, he will subject himself to three tests; one given in January during the week the fight is formally announced, one thirty days from the fight, no later than February 13, and the final one immediately following the fight, in Manny's locker room.

    And read this and count how many times Top rank changed the cutoff date, along with other things.

    not on here so long true, but followed the sport since early 80s.

    I think Pac is damaged from having to spar Ruslan Provodnikov every day at the wild card. I think Ruslan took a couple years off Bradley's life fighting Ruslan

    Pac turned down 40 million the most that he would have ever received to go fight Bradley for for what 8 million. What a sucker!
