Thursday deadline is only a scare tactic from Arum....they will wait it out til' early January if necessary...
The fight will happen. Mayweather isnt going to let that much money walk away from him. There isnt any big name opponent for Mayweather to fight. Pacquaio is his only opportunity for a mega fight Pacquaio on the other hand has many options for many more multi million dollar fights, much moreso than Mayweather. The fight will be made.
A short while ago,after a date had been announced for the fight and both sides appeared to be making positive statements,I posted a thread here stating; "Don't be surprised if the fight does'nt happen" At that time,I had a nagging feeling that Mayweather and his camp would try to find a way out of this fight. With the present turn of events,that appears to be the case. Who knows whether the fight will now go ahead or not. Everything is clearly "up in the air" at the moment and we'll all have to wait and see where it lands. Personally,I feel the fight will be salvaged and go ahead. However,I have one question; "Why did'nt Mayweather and his camp request this style of drug testing before the contracts were appparently signed? Why wait till later?" It seems to be the case that Mayweather is letting his fear of losing run wild and is attempting to pull out of the fight by discrediting Pacquiao and simultaneously "saving face".....a very clever tactic! I have a feeling it may just backfire on Floyd.
Screw Fraud and all his groupies. This clown says he wants a level playing field? Really? Like the time he picked a blown-up lightweight, then intentionally failed to make weight (to the tune of $600k) so he could be bigger, fresher, faster, and stronger? I guess Marquez didn't deserve a "level playing field." Let's not forget they attempted to load the undercard with solid fights, only for Money May to act like the million plus buys were solely generated by him. Once again, **** Fraud!!! That said, Packy's refusal to adhere to the testing demands do raise some suspicions but not much in my eyes. If I recall correctly, Floyd climbed quite a few weight classes himself. Lastly, this isn't Olympics. If Nevada testing procedures were good all this time, why aren't they now. I just think its all bull**** and Floyd is shook.
Nobody said this was the Olympics. The point is Olympic drug testing is world class and advance. PBF and Manny are world class athletes .... duh! NAC's drug testing is good but not elite like the IOC's.
Floyd is finding ways either to pull out from the fight or just being simply a *****. As of now, Pac has made some concessions on this request. It is up to Mayweather's camp to decide whether they want this fight or not.
floyd is shook? how about having nightmares about getting the **** beat out of him by an Asian man in front of a billion eyes. he might be having a massive nervous breakdown.
That's bull****. Lance can spell and uses complete sentences to clearly state his opinions, ideas and thoughts. Nice try fanboy.
ACTUALLY FLOYD ALSO HAS MANY OTHER MULIT MILLION DOLLAR OPTIONS:deal NO FIGHTER CAN MAKE AS MUCH AS FIGHTING EACH OTHER...BUT DONT GET THAT **** TWISTED...THE TOP NAMES IN THE SPORT WANT FLOYD IF YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED...**** MOSLEY IS PRACTICALLY ON HIS KNEES BEGGING:nut
Then someone should give them a slap & quietly let them know that real boxing fans arent interested in girly drama`s or negative news.... the fight will sell itself due to the participants, both men signing would have been a nice Christmas bonus for the real fans of the sport too, dam shame.
Actually, this is getting more exposure on ESPN THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN RECENT HISTORY WHEN IT COMES TO BOXING...LIKE IT OR NOT THIS IS ONLY HELPING BUILD THE FIGHT IF IT COMES OFF...IT WAS ALL OVER THE ESPN SCORE BAR ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN DURING THE BOWL GAMES YESTERDAY...IT IS ALSO TOP NEWS IN A LOT OF LOCAL PAPERS... TRUST THIS IS HELPING THE BUILD UP
