    If Manny let the commission do their jobs then why didn't he just let the commission penalize Floyd for coming in overweight? Why the $10 Million/1 pound penalty?

    Listen, and this goes for everyone, there's no reason to take sides. It's not rocket science to observe that both Floyd and Manny have avoided each other explicitly throughout the years. Floyd has been on video crying about his health, head/hat sizes :rofl, his health, and the "lion's share". Meanwhile, Pacquiao was afraid of needles, giving blood weakened him, he needed 9 months for a cut to heal, and an outdoor stadium.

    These are two prima donnas who have not taken many tough fights since their climb into the higher weights. Props for what they've done at the lower weights and how dominant they looked in their prime, but neither fighter is that intimidating anymore - and neither impresses me much anymore. Two years ago I couldn't imagine feeling this way...but I honestly can't wait for these two to retire.

    Did Floyd agree to fight Pacquiao now ? Or he still can't find his balls ?

    Drug testing and making weight should never be a big deal in boxing.

    It wasn't PBF accepted it. Unlike Pac who ran away from drug testing that was to be given to both fighters to ensure a clean fight.

    Nervous to fight a former flyweight?
    I thought Pac is just a walk in a park? Easy win for floyd :rofl

    How can a guy claiming to be the best ever, is afraid of an asian midget?

    Mayweather accepted it. Imagine if he didn't and said "Nah, how about 1 million instead?" And Mayweather cancelled the fight after Pac said no?

    The pacturds would be saying Mayweatherr ducked :lol:

    It obviously wasn't a big deal to Mayweather as he accepted it without hesitation. I'm not sure why having a tablespoon of blood is such a big deal that some people think it takes 3 days to recover from it.

    why would he not accept it if he claimed he is small ww?

    all he needs to do is come at 147 as he usually does.

    pac could ask for a billion, it shouldnt be a problem still.


    again, how is the penalty a big deal for someone who claimed to be small ww in the first place?

    all the penalty does is prevent him from cheating pac in the weights like he did against **** drinker.


    is theftjr planning to cheat pac?
