    Beat me to it Luke.
    If a penalty of 1mil was in place PBF could come in at weigh in 4lbs over and hand over the cash right there, basically FU to Pac and fight fans.

    If PBF came in on target for JMM we wouldn't even hear about this clause:deal

    Oh, and if no penalty, or a shitty 2-3mil penalty was in place Manny and Roach would/could just walk away. But for a 20-30 million penalty we get -
    1) Floyd WILL come in on target, too much to lose.
    2) Floyd comes in over and rather than Roach pulling the plug the huge cash bonus would make it worth while fighting.

    He got out of fighting Manny Pacquiao and convinced you it was Manny's fault.
    All based on some made up accusation that had no evidence.
    Floyd played you idiots and got the exact result he wanted.
    If this fight absolutely does not happen, and any of you think that is Pacquiao's fault, you're going to look like an idiot when you see who Mayweather signs to fight next.

    Mayweathers record is going to remain in tact and he is going to fight some one we don't care about.

    You idiots got played. Big time.

    Don't pull the race card on this one, that is old.

    The reason why Floyd is at fault here is because boxing has rules, those rules are set by governing bodies and state and national athletic commissions, not by promoters or fighters. Even though he has agreed to a compromise, blood being drawn in January, 30 days before the fight, and right after the fight, the GBP/PBF camp balked. The funny thing is that similar requests were made by Judah when a proposed Mosley fight was on the table and GBP used the same defense Manny is, that there are pre-existing rules and we are not changing them.

    The fact is this has been a giant campaign on the part of GBP and PBF to defame Manny in order to deligitimize him and the fight. If Manny or Floyd were using anything it wouldn't show up in USADA testing, since that testing clearly didn't work with people like Tim Montgomery and Marion Jones. People at this level use designer steroids that are a step ahead of the testing procedures.

    That would be funny.

    Should GBP require Mosley also to take the blood test, given that they themselves did not believe Mosley need to take that kind of drug test?

    I will wait for that scenario.:lol:

    I am sure they would do the Olympic style drug testing just to prove a point to Pacquiao and everybody else. Not to mention they have to keep that stance considering everything that has happened or they lose face.

    Maybe they are going to try and get the rules changed for testing? Who really knows?

    We will see what happens.

    If it was mandated, surely they will do it.

    How about if the other just requested it, simply because they think Lebron and the whole US caging team is on steroids, before they play for the Finals?

    This would be unprecedented in the history of Olympics basketball.
    Do you seriously think US would just agree on that? Without question? I doubt it.

    And would you support Spain's request in that case?

    Who really knows? Well, it is damn expensive for one.

    And they better do it now with Mosley-Berto right? Just to prove a point.

    But no. It is obviously a Pacquiao rule for now.

    How about Mayweather thinking that Pacquaio is on steroids? It is not funny?

    Mate, its not just americans that think Floyds requests are unfair. And not every country has the same history as america. Those people dont give a **** that Floyd is black.

    At the end of the day Floyd Mayweather does not comission boxing, therefore he does not have the right to make such demands.

    Theres no doubt the fight will happen because the money on the table is so high, Floyd will back down.

    MMA and UFC- are taking **** over, the best fight each other, unlike boxing--Lesnar, Mir, St Pierre, Chuck Liddell, those guy's have way more balls, than Manny-floyd...:yep
