    He's not the only sporting icon, but he did a lot to bring back interest in boxing, at least for the casual observer.

    I was a big boxing fan growing up on Tyson and Julio Cesar Chavez. I'm Filipino and as much as I love Pacquiao, he isn't in my top 3 boxers of all time. Top 5 yea, but not top 3. But I can certainly appreciate what he's done in the past decade. As boxing gradually faded away from dominant heavyweights, I caught the first Pacquiao fight with Barrera and was just intrigued. He brought back my interest in the sport, as he did with a number of other fight fans, both hardcore and casual.

    I can't tell you how many times I've rocked a Pacquiao jacket out and how people who obviously have no clue or the slightest idea what boxing really is or hardly follow it, come up to me and just spark up casual conversations about Pacquiao and who his next opponent is. For those who just hate Pacquiao for whatever fabricated reasons, it's difficult for them to understand. On the grand scheme of sports in general, it's true he's only a sporting icon, but the past several years, he's been able to keep interest in the sport. Him along with Mayweather have driven up talks and debates about boxing that hasn't really been seen since the 90's.

    Now I not only like Floyd, but I'm a hugger of his?:lol: This is why noobs should just STFU. You have no frame of reference here.

    They DRAW about a teaspoon of blood for these tests, now go back to watching your cartoons and STFU. Let the grown-ups talk now. :yep

    There are a lot of Pac fans who will just refuse to see the other side of the story in Mayweather's case, but I'm starting to see it equally that for every Pac nuthugger, there always sprouts up a Floyd nuthugger. It's the same for both sides.

    I was big on Roy Jones and naturally was hooked on Floyd and a fan up until the past few years. I absolutely loathe the way he handles himself. In my stable of friends, I've got as many Floyd nuthuggers as Manny nuthuggers. Don't get me wrong, if they ended up fighting I'd be rooting for Manny all the way, but I'd agree with the Vegas odds that Mayweather would likely win.

    Pac should take this offer. Here's a great chance to restore his reputation, make the most money he's ever made, and have a chance to become the greatest fighter of the time. The Mayweathers have dragged his name into the dirt and fans are questioning him more than ever.

    The only way out is to publicly accept Floyd's demands, take the drug tests and put an end to this bull****. If he doesn't, it will cloud his whole career for a long time. When another man is publicly clowning you, it's time you did something about it.

    We'll see if it's a valid offer in the first place. 24 and 14 dont' seem that much apart. They should be able to agree on something.

    There were so many leaks when the talk had broken down, this 14 day proposal was not even mentioned. Not even by Haymon, or Schaeffer.

    They were only dismissing the claim that they begged or pleaded with Floyd to take the compromised offer to both.

    That motherfu**er has been in the business for 100 years, a Yale grad and he's showing it now by just making Golden Boy Promotion and the Mayweather team look like THE IDIOTS.

    A. BOTH PARTIES PARTICIPATED IN THE MEDIATION IN GOOD FAITH. BOTH PARTIES PARTICIPATED IN MANY HOURS OF NEGOTIATIONS, WITH A NUMBER OF PROPOSALS ISSUED BY EACH SIDE AND CAREFULLY CONSIDERED BY THE PARTIES AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVES.

    IF IT IS FALSE THAN THE MEDIATOR WILL HAVE TO SAY CORRECT IT:hi:

    OWNED YA:deal:hi:
