What else would Floyd ask for IF Manny agreed to the tests?

Floyd:bolt .

 

Nothing!!!

If Floyd was to ask for something else because Pacquiao agrees to the OSDT, then I lose all respect for Floyd and im sure 90% of boxing fans would too.

 

55-45

 

For starters, there is already an excuse because now he already stated not to agree to a 50/50 purse sharing.

So you might as well kiss the fight goodbye because even if Pac agrees to twice a day blood testing, I don't think that it would go anywhere without 50/50 sharing.

 

Looks more like Gary Shaw contradicting himself to me on who is to blame.

BTW it also looks similar to what happened in negotiations between Pacquiao and Hatton, apart from Hatton agreed to the change in demands to get the fight made where as Winky didn't.

 

There is already an article that Floyd would not agree to a 50/50 when there is a negotiation again. Look it up.

 

So that is actually the purpose of this thread? To point out that All Mayweatherb was asking is the drug test!

You have a crooked way of starting a thread - vague.

Why did you go through the trouble of starting a stupid thread when you could simply aked the question whether All Mayweather wanted is a drug test, make a poll, then we can start agreeing or disagreeing.

BTW, your using of upper case is still imbecilic and immature. There is a proper protocol for posting in forums and you can not even do it.

Back to the topic, whether you are right or wrong in your stand regarding the purse sharing, there is no way that Pac would accept less than half of it. We could debate the merits of your case until the end of time, and may even prove you are right, but as it stands, there is no way Pac accepts less than half. And Mayweather knows it! If that is not an excuse, then no other reason is an excuse.

Completely made up a story.

****ing moron.

 

You are just excused of using those caps because you are 16yrs old. But learn to know some web ethics even at your young age. It is agreed that using caps is for yelling. You don't have to yell to make your point.

 

As far as I know, Floyd only made one request. They went back and forth because Floyd didn't want to give Pac a window. He finally caved in and gave them a 14 day window but they didn't want anything less than 24 days. That said, I don't see why many people assume Floyd kept pushing Pac into a deeper hole. People must understand that it's not so much the blood tests or the amount that is important. It's the act of random testing leading up to the day before the fight that really matters to Floyd. Why is it so important? It's because as of now it's the best method to catch an intelligent PED user. You don't give a user time to study.

I have no idea why some of you think Floyd would keep bringing up new stipulations if Pac had agreed. Yes, it is possible for that scenario to occur. It's also possible that Team Pac will do the same exact thing to find a way out of the fight. How do we know Roach won't ask Floyd to wear a specific type of shoes and trunks? Could be anything but that's just an example.

Promoters Gary Shaw and Bob Arum were in Beverly Hills on Thursday afternoon to officially announce the Oct. 8 rematch between Diego Corrales and Jose Luis Castillo.
But as that deal was finalized, a proposed Nov. 12 bout between Winky Wright and Floyd Mayweather fell apart as the two met at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
"M-O-N-E-Y," stated Shaw in spelling out the reason why this bout between two of the premier prizefighters in the world will not be taking place. "I thought we had a deal. I spoke with Don King, King was on board, Jim Wilkes was on board, Winky Wright was on board. We agreed to 154 pounds, we agreed to another morning weight because they were concerned about the weight -- Winky couldn't gain more than eight pounds above 154."
With all of Winky's representatives (including King, who holds an option on Wright after his victory over Felix Trinidad in May) in agreement, Shaw thought he would be signing contracts by the end of the week.
"When I was in Arum's office he talked about different splits," recalled Shaw, who said at that time the numbers he was told differed from the ones he had agreed to. "I started to yell, I said, 'It's gotta be 50-50.' He

said, "All right, all right. Why are you yelling? I'm just the messenger. Come back, we'll do the deal." I walked downstairs here at the Beverly Hills Hotel, I said, 'We have a deal?' He looked at me and said, '55-45.' I said, 'No, 50-50. He said, 'There's no deal.' "
Arum confirmed that Wright-Mayweather is dead as of now.
"There were requests made by Floyd Mayweather, we laid it out and I think they were fair requests," said the veteran promoter. "Gary rejected them, so there's no fight. We have to sit with Floyd and we'll figure out [what we do next].
"Maybe [Antonio] Margarito. It's unfortunate as far as the Winky Wright fight, but it's not going to happen."

While Mayweather retains his Nov. 12 date on HBO Pay-Per-View, Wright has a date set aside for him the following week on HBO.

Did Mayweather and Arum come to the realization that in facing the much bigger Wright, that they were biting off more than even the "Pretty Boy" could chew?

"Floyd's been talking a lot of trash, saying he's going to knock Winky out; he told Kevin Iole he wants to fight," said Shaw. "He wanted the fight on Sunday. On Monday I went to Top Rank's office personally. My feeling is that Floyd never wanted the fight. He was just talking smack."

As Shaw and Arum gave their sides of the story after the Corrales-Castillo press conference, just outside the ballroom where it was held, Margarito's manager Sergio Diaz was meeting with Top Rank's VP, Todd DuBoef, about his fighter's future -- which doesn't seem to include Mayweather.

"Right now we just met with Todd and we're looking at October 1st," he explained to MaxBoxing. "The date is there, the opponent we still don't know. They've been mentioning Joshua Clottey, but Showtime doesn't know if they want to accept that opponent."

As for a bout with Mayweather?

"Mayweather has mentioned that he'd rather jump to 154 and fight Winky Wright than fight Margarito," Diaz said. "He says it's a better loss to lose against Winky Wright than it is to Antonio."

Diaz doesn't have much hope that even with the Wright fight not happening, that a bout between Margarito and Mayweather comes to fruition.

"No, not at all," he admitted. "To tell you the truth, at the beginning I was, we were hopeful it would happen. But now, it's already behind me."
