    True. However I think the difference here is that Pacquiao flip-flopped, made excuses that contradicted each other, and Bob Arum was caught in a flat out lie. At least Mayweather stayed consistent.

    I know that Floyd has answered questions about Pacquiao as well, but you don't see Roger Mayweather with nearly as many quotes, statements, and interviews as Roach. You can say that there is a difference in popularity, but even in the interviews that we have seen, Roger is much more low key and appears far less concerned with Pacquiao than Roach/Manny are with Floyd. You have to admit that.

    Sure. I hosted it on TinyPic so no skin (bandwith) off my back.

    Nice picture. Did you have something else to say? Wait...

    True about Roger, I don't see much commentary from him.

    I don't see exactly where Pacquiao flip-flopped, except for the testing dates, and that was very likely due to others (Arum and Roach) telling him what to say.

    It's ok. We understand your anger. Let it go. Tell us more why you hate Freddie and Manny. We are here to support you (patting Jaguar in the back).

    He's saying that only becauise he knows the fans are pissed this fight didnt happen and ANY comment about the potential fight will get attention!

    Just take the tests already!

    Thanks for your support but I think that Freddie Roach needs a back pat or two. It seems that this guy can't decide if he wants to fight Mayweather, doesn't need Mayweather, if he agreed to the tests, if he doesn't agree to the tests, if 5 days will be enough, or they need 24 days, but then they do 19 days. Pat Roach. I'm good.

    From 12/13/2009
    Also, I am sure that you have seen the video where Roach says that they agreed to the Olympic testing and that it was no problem. I'd call that a flip-flop, wouldn't you?

    I agree that Floyd's request was above and beyond, however so was Pac's. One guy compromised and one guy didn't.

    **** the NSAC. Pac makes up weight classes and weight penalties. Pot calling the kettle.. Fish face.
