    Floyd has agreed to gloves, ring size, date, location, 50/50, $10 mil weight penalties, etc. And now they (GBP) are making concessions about the drug testing. What else does Floyd need to do to get Pacq in the ring?

    He could drop the silly demand and agree to testing after the fight and sign

    The question is what can PAC do to get Floyd in the ring. PAC has been willing to fight Floyd but Floyd wants all these hoops set in place for PAC to jump through.

    I doubt Floyd would drop back down ala RJJ after Ruiz.

    I thought that this additional testing was needed? There have been many in boxing who have suspected and spoken out about Pacq's possible drug use. Would not more testing be better for everyone and boxing altogether? We dont need any more Shane Mosley's.

    If the Phillies had publicly req'd more drug testing prior to world series- this would have been a huge hit- as the public is tired of doping athletes. Baseball has had its fair share of suspected users and additonal testing to build upon their already in place policies would be lauded. Why is that not the case here? Especially given that so many people point to desinger Roids for Pacq and his famous trainer has been linked to so many Roids fighters in the past.

    Time is running out. If it does happen in March, need to start training in January so press conferance has to be done early Jan. So if the fight isnt agreed withn the next couple of weeks looks like is off.

    So all they can do now is agree to the terms or push forward a final set of terms from both camps and say yes or no and end this. Then we can talk about who dodged who or whos going to win.

    Yeah, personally I don't care about the "he said, she said"....i like and respect both fighters...I am a BOXING fan. Just get them in the ring and let them fight. And I am ALWAYS for more testing- it just makes sense.

    Quit being a ***** and follow the NSAC drug testing policies.

    I've yet to hear one valid reason for Pacquiao to accept Mayweather's ridiculous drug testing requests. Why is Pacquiao not able to use the same standards that every other fighter in Nevada is required to use?

    Promise to fight with both hands tied behind his back. But then Pacquiao would demand that his legs need to be tied together as well, and after all of that Pacquiao still wouldn't submit to random blood testing and drop the fight.

    Do you ****ing clowns realize, that Mayweather refusing to fight Pacquiao unless he adheres to his requests for random blood tests is like the Dallas Cowboys refusing to play the Giants unless they submit blood tests prior to the game?

    Nevermind Floyd and GBP's ridiculous request to keep Pac's sample for a period of eight years.

    Seriously, some of you clowns need to find a new sport, because you're pussifying this one.
