    Hopefully Dan Rafael learns about Men's Big & Tall so that slob will no longer have to be the only journalist wearing shorts in the press areas...

    I agree. Now the question is, who is the bigger duck?

    but see how would floyd know manny would take the demand to this level? Floyd had no way of knowing..in fact floyd was ready to get it rollin until manny looked at the procedures..i just dont see where he is "putting up obstacles".

    As far as "when the demands came out" this demand was put in from the beggining..it isn't as if he added it later on..this was asked for from the start so how is it that this is his way of "ducking"

    your argument has holes mine don't...your argument is based on "floyd's reputation" rather than good hard facts like my argument...my argument is backed by videos of manny taking a blood test 24 days before a fight..urs isn't ..my argument is backed without holes in my arguments..yours isn't ...again i respect ur argument but u have no facts behind it..i do

    Floyud wouldn't have known 100% how PAC would have reacted....BUT, he could put himself in PAC's shoes and think about how he would've reacted to someone spreading lies (if they are in fact lies) that caught a lot of media attention and tarnished his name to the point of having to field and justify his career that he worked incredibly hard for. Would you give in to demands of the person who spread lies about you and impacted your career?

    I have 40 Million reasons why I WOULD if that was me, but I'm not millionare and I pretty much have a price for anyting.:lol: PAC doesn't seem to be cut form the same cloth as myself or even Floyd who holds money as the main driving force in his career.

    The obstacles are the drug testing and the rumor mill that has gotten a lot of media attention base on nothing less than rumors. You think about it......if Floyd never accused PAC of being on roids and never asked for additional testing this fight would be on bro.

    Olympic style testing was not demanded from the floyd camp to begin with. That came afterwards when PAC agreed to demands for additional, RANDOM **** testing.

    My agruement could have holes and if they are in fact there I have yet to see or hear anyone who can justify their stance against my own. But I'm very open to others agruements if they are valid.

    For me it's a little comical and ironic that you are stating that your argument is based on facts and Floyd's entire stance on PAC being on roids has NO FACTS, EVIDENCE or SUBSTANCE to support his demands or rationale behind making those comments.

    You feel strongly about your opinion....for me I don't see how your case is based on facts at all when it was clear that the demands of Floyd did change after the intial negotiations for the fight were done. The demands for the test is what caused the stall in the process of making this fight realtiy which lies soley on the shoulders of the one insisting on the tests.

    And Floyd's rep has nothing to do with my stance on this matter. Floyd is Floyd and I feel he's needed in the sport and has brought alot to the table. But his actions were unresponsible and low in my honest opinion. To spread a rumor against a guy whom you are suppose to have your next fight with....and potentially the biggest fight of all time.....makes me wonder about his confidence in beating Manny.

    And you know I said Floyd would beat PAC if they faught....Now I don't feel that way. Not b/c PAC is all the sudden better than Floyd technically or PAC added some more skill sets....but b/c Floyd is acting in a way I've never seen before and that is out of character for Floyd.

    How is he requesting testing on a guy he's publicly stated couldn't fight and that he'd complete dominate and out class? Why not just fight him if you are so confident like he said? That is very questionable.

    How is Floyd acting? Is there some footage I missed? There was one agitated interview well before the fight and he said an indirect reference to performance enhancing drugs won pressed on weather he thought Manny was taking anything...

    How is that acting weird?

    :lol: What I mean when I said "Floyd is acting in a way I've never seen before" I meant in terms of the actions that he's taken regarding Manny. #1.....Floyd usually doesn't worry about his opponents...he's worried about PAC otherwise he wouldn't be demanding additional testing for PAC.
    #2.....Floyd has never thrown up obstacles when it comes to getting big money like in this potential fight with Manny. He pretty much stalled the fight indefinitely with these actions. Why would he do that when "MONEY" may is all about Money. And he's the "BEST EVER"...Better than Robinson Leonord ALI ect.? Why even worry about what Manny takes when Floyd has said emphatically that PAC presents NO challenge to him?
    #3......FLoyd always down plays his oppoents ability and strenghts before his fights....although he hasn't said Manny is a great fighter and that he knows he's in for a real fight, his actions about making this fight is almost like him saying without saying that he knows Manny is a great fighter and feels that PAC is a threat.

    None of that is weird to you?
