    Except none of that ever happened, but OK.

    And I won't ever hold anything negative towards an athlete for demanding and paying for extra drug testing of any kind. I won't ask why you don't feel that way, either...

    And vice versa.

    However, Mayweather has fought several opponents who have made him more money than Pacquiao's opponent selection has made him (Oscar, Alvarez, Cotto, Mosley PPV numbers are historic).

    Besides, we are talking about Pac's last fight with Brandon Rios. The Rios who had never once weighed above 140 pounds and who was also coming off a decisive loss in a war. Yeah...

    Yeah.

    Pacquiao was awfully excited when, after nearly 4 whole years of excuses from both sides but the actual excuses that prevented a fight were all Team Pac, he was finally given the option to go and see about making the fight... Hmm. What does that tell you about Bob's stance for the previous 4 years that he finally gave the go ahead to go seek out the fight?

    And going to Africa definitely means he doesn't have a phone or computer, or managers that handle his business stateside, and it certainly means he will never be returning from Africa and will never ever fight again.

    ...right?

    I would understand Floyd's fear if he was the inferior boxer and couldn't beat Pacman. The sad truth is most agree that Floyd would probably cruise to an easy UD win over Pac yet he is *STILL* terrified of this fight.

    He'd make millions with little risk, get tons of fame and respect, everyone would love Floyd for giving us the fight we thirst for for years. But no, not good enough for Floyd. Rather avoids Pac and fights guys no one wants to see.

    Everyone just loves to live in the past. Let's talk about current events. Manny wants this fight now and all of you who claims to be boxing fans should want it too. Stop pointing fingers and acting like high school girls and start demanding it.

    Manny Pacquiao says he intends to stay shackled by the ankle to Bob Arum even if it means not getting a big payday by fighting Mayweather.
    He says that mayweather's demands, of drug testing and Arum aren't realistic and that he would also be taking a huge cut in pay.

    Meanwhile at Manny's Philippine tax trial where he owes upwards of $50M not counting the $18M he owes to the US IRS, a IRS Special Witness to Pacquiao's tax trial told the court.

    “Whoever is helping him is not doing a good job”


    Due to his tax debt the US government immediately withholds 35 to 40 percent of his net income each fight to be applied to total owed debt.

    LOL!

    Mayweather doesn't need Pacquiao for anything.
    Meanwhile, it appears that after Arum, the IRS, trainers, and expenses, Manny would be lucky to still have 15-20% of his purse as take home pay.

    I don't doubt that Manny probably still has huge chunks of real estate in the Philippines that his wife probably manages. Maybe that part of why he owes such a large amount in tax.
    I doubt that Manny will get broke, but it's clear that some shady dealings have been going on where money is moved around and mis-calculated by Arum and Pacquiao's lawyers.

    Thank God Manny lives in a 3rd World shithole. He's gonna need every bit of those small living expenses to make up for his nonexistent money-making IQ.

    But hey, his loyalty is to be admired. I guess.

    Manny's extra luggage(leeching friends) will be his downfall, because it also costs Money paying all your so-called friends expenses also.

    What you gonna do if you get all this money, get hit by a car, and your ***** rolls your crippled ass in the closet, with a peep hole, so you can watch her bang her new dude on your bed?

    Remember, that's what you wanted.
