    How did you compare their resumes to think Mayweather has a far better list of opposition than Pacquaio?

    Why do you think the testing is only a minor issue? And how is Pacquaio using it as an excuse not to fight Mayweather?

    Don't you think the drug issue is a legit reason?

    So you believe Mayweather, Jr doesn't really care about whether Pac is on PEDS or not, he just wants to get a mental advantage?

    Why can't you blame Mayweather if the fight doesn't push through? When he can just say, let's fight, and drop the drug issue, as you say it is only a mental thing.

    For you, how far can Mayweather go at this point, to further his legacy? Beat Pacquaio? Martinez at 154 or 160?

    1 he has talent and skills. Not among the top fighter in the last 2 decades since he
    is fighting an average of once a year against C and B boxers.
    2 His resume is really low compared to DLH`s and other top fighters.
    3. During most of his carreer, there is a pattern of avoiding the best fighters in their peak, so not fighting Pac is not an exception. Most of tops fighters would have been
    undefeated by taking vacation when the competition is tough or tight as Floyd does.

    1.When it comes to "boxing" skills, in the purest sense of the word, he's the best with Whitaker since the 90s, one of the best ever.

    2.His resume shows he refuses to prove it against the best. 4 of his 7 opponents at welter went up to fight him after one or no fights at welter (and Khan could be next), and consider he didn't fight the most established guys at the weight and it's clear to see there's no co-incidence. His resume could have been so much greater, but coulda, woulda, shoulda doesn't do much for your legacy.

    3.As for Pac, I believe he doesn't want to fight him, never did after Pac thumped Hatton out cold and his daddy told him not to as he feared for his life. He hijacked Pac-Hatton to announce his comeback, purposely creating demand for a Pac fight, but he either got frightened off or thought Hatton was going to win and that rematch is what he wanted.

    What if Mayweather, Jr really believes Pacquiao is taking PEDS? Isn't it reasonable enough to make a demand such as the random drug testing?

    At this point, do you believe the fight will still happen?

    Do you think he is really interested to fight Pacquaio? Does he even need Pacquaio at all?

    What could he do to make the fight possible, in your opinion?

    This is the truth

    Anyone rating Floyd so highly whilst acknowledging he has not faced the best he could / should have are really really missing the point.

    Top 5 fighters dont have floyds resume

    How can you explain the vacation reason, when he could have negotiated after the Mosley fight?

    Compared to the other 4 in your list there, where do you rank Mayweather's resume?

    Don't you think Pacquaio could have just agreed to that request and then we have a fight?
