    I don't know if Pacs fear of needles is genuine but the fact he has tats doesn't mean much IMHO. Tattoo needles arn't invasive, theres no sharp piercing sensation into a vein, its just a "buzz" on your skin.

    Even though neither of us were privvy to the negotiations, let's assume what you've written above is accurate. None of those things involve an unprecedented rule change, do they?

    notice that i said strictest drug testing POSSIBLE. numerous athletes get away with but all involved are not making it tough enough to NOT get away with it.

    even if it isnt to do with drugs and its to do with one upmanship then pacs had his fair share of requirements met. to be honest every pac request has been met that i know of.

    What truth? You can use all the glib paraphrases you like, it doesn't make your argument any stronger.

    those are the things that roach, pac and arum have publicly stated.

    TEN MILLION POUND FINE - you are honestly trying to justify this. it exposes you as a pac apologist.

    im just calling it like i see it.

    i dont see the big issue with 2 random blood tests. pac is happy to throw away $40mil over it. raises big questions doesn't it.

    the pac apologists are hiding behind the slander rubbish. no mainstream fan even knows of seniors comments. everyone at my work is interested in this fight and all them have bets on it. none of them are calling him a druggy etc it was a nothing comment. everyone i know is amazed at pacs accomplishments.

    pac is the only one to blame for this issue being blown out of proportion.

    How can I take you seriously when you still don't know what the proposed testing programme consists of?

    You're no different to the kids on the GF who cry "hater" when someone disagrees with them.

    Pac's request for smaller gloves that always were used at this weight in the past right up to 154lbs except in Nevada...wow thank the Lord Mayweather is so accomodating.

    And for the fight to be at 147lbs which is actually Mayweather's weight rather than one where he's angling to get every advantage possible.

    Yeah, things that are supposed to happen really equates to changing the whole testing process.

    I believe Mayweather has also graciously agreed to 1 ref, 3 judges, a rectangular ring and the 10 point must system of scoring.....;)
