    Haymon did, not Mayweather (clearly)

    Still, whether he's confident he'll be fine, doesn't mean he wants to risk not having him there.

    Mayweather has also said Roger is the best trainer in the world. Probably wants to be 100% that he will be there.

    Yep. The Pacquiao camp has been historically and famously inconsistent in their public remarks regarding the Mayweather negotiations. It's not hard to present at least four or more instances of them changing their stance regarding blood testing. Mayweather is done dancing around the issue after the last negotiations fell through and has made it clear that this time he wants full blood testing to the day of the fight with no exceptions. I can respect that, the way he was jerked around last time around and nearly left with no viable opponent, if not for the Haitian tragedy.

    no, although he needs to give a better account of himself than "i'm not vacation now, not really thinking about boxing", when the sport that made himself who he his is howling for his blood

    Sure. After he threw a fit about it with MP and the failed negotiations. He had to keep it going or face being ridiculed for ducking Pac.

    Anyone who thinks of anything other than adequate drug testing is a mental infant. Not my concern.

    and why do they suspect him, because he moves up weight - great why didnt they ask to test marquez when he was moving up weight to fight floyd.

    they suspect him because he performs well? then shouldn't mayweather have been tested too because .. yknow he performs well and hasn't lost ??

    also its one thing to suspect someone, but they actually have to have something substantial to support their "suspicions" which they did not have.

    Paint it any way you like. He already went through the process with Mosley and will continue to do so henceforth.

    This I will agree with. However, I dont think its a fact of MP being scared or being on any illegal substance, I think its 2 huge ego's that dont want the other to get their way.

    Yes you did make that up. I am not a tool, YDKSAB. An agreed upon catch weight and not making weight are two ENTIRELY different scenarios. No, Mayweather not making weight didn't happen. He missed the catch weight and was penalized. He made weight which was 147.

    I am not spinning. I am telling you facts that any boxing fan could tell you. You are now cursing. Losing your cool is the first sign of getting spanked in an argument.

    Wrong. Why do you keep saying Pac agreed when he didn't? FMJ is the draw here not Pac. That doesn't mean Pac isn't the #2 draw, just that FMJ is in the better position. If Pac wants the fight why won't he offer what he knows will get him the fight? Because he doesn't want the fight.

    He started with Mosley.... really?

    Now we are re-writing history for floyd, huh?

    He hasn't done anything for the sport.
    Urine has been ruled upon as adequate.


    I haven't seen any boycott of the super 6 or any other boxing events over the lack of protection for boxers in the form of blood tests.

    The argument only exists with Pacquiao.

    It's a smear campaign and a witch hunt.

    Pacquiao doesn't have to bend to mayweathers demands by agreeing to take the blood testing.

    Mayweather has to bend over for top rank (his favorite promoters) and sign the contract by their deadline or Mayweather is ducking.
