Arum does not deny that Richie Rich Schaefer of Golden Boy, the appointed Maywerather rep along with close to the best adviser Al Haymon, did end up with a two weeks out preflight test demand. Its true, its true, Arum said. But they knew full well that we would not go for that. I think the real mistake was mine in not saying, Sign the bout contract, then take your test requirements to the athletic commission. I should have said that and, if he signed the contract, I couldve said go the commission and dont bother me with this bullspit. source: http://www.examiner.com/x-5699-Boxing-Examiner~y2010m1d8-Bungle-In-Jungle-Arum-confesses-I-blew-it-on-MayweatherPacquiao
And Pacquiao says he was never informed of the 14 days. Just shows that Arum is the one who didn't want this fight to happen.
14 days is entirely reasonable....why wouldnt they go for that? The whole issue with blood tests according to PAC was that he didnt want blood taken from him a few days before the fight b/c it would weaken him as he says it did for the firm EM fight. Well if that was the real reason, the 14 day cut off makes that excuse null and void. What other reason would they have no to accept the 14 day cut off aside from a) they have something to hide or b) they dont want the fight......i think freddie roach knows that they dont have enough time to prepare for a FMJ by march 13 so they simply decided not to budge on anything knowing it would get them out of the fight for now. I can see them accepting the 14 day cut off if both of them win their next bouts and the fight getting made for september.
Do you think Manny can recover after only 2 weeks of getting a teaspoon of blood out of him? He still might be in a slightly weakened state.
Arf! "Hey Pac, we'll go and negotiate some stuff for the biggest fight you'll ever have/dodge and let you know what we decided afterwards." That sounds likely.
Do you think Pac will be clean until February 17th and then start pumping roids up his veins just enough to be able to come clean on March 13th?
The thing about this is that they would need the roids if he was using them during the middle part of training which would be between30-14 days before the fight. @ weeks before the fight they are usually peaking and arent working as hard so they wouldnt benefit as much from the roids right? I would think thats when you would want to roid up to get the best results. I think the 14 days before the fight is mostly weight cutting and roadwork.
Why arum and team pac always gettin **** mixed up or making false allegations...i mean just take the 14 days or make another counter offer...tell that muh fu34a 20 days or some ****...don't just run now cuz ur backed into a corner....make floyd pay in the ring for all he done
Arum is a ****ing ******. 14 days is just as good as 24 and just as good as 20. All of them are not within the week before the fight. What the ****?
