    Mayweather Sr hardly held a press conference about it. He made a comment with his big mouth like he always does. It's not like every interview he is pushing it and saying it is 100% fact i.e. "Personally I believe… I BELIEVE…. it’s just a belief; I believe he has some kind of enhancement drug."

    If Floyd Jr has this concern then he has a right to ask for the testing to be strict, especially considering he will undergo it also.

    What Pac has done is amazing and to question it as an opponent is perfectly fair. Pacs brought his character into question with his antics.

    hey guys,

    I don't want to sound like a broken-record and drag this on but I found this really cool youtube video with a guy giving his opinion on the pac/drugs allegations.

    Thought i'd post it to add another perspective to the mix :good

    Good video, but it still doesn't change the fact Floyd was wrong to sully Pac's name.

    It does sound like Arum's been a bit of a bellend, but there's nothing new there.

    Arum always act like a spoilt rich kid. The whole fight has been negotiated but now he wants to bail out. In the beginning he got his son to negotiate cos he said he wanted nothing to do with it. Guess where the rich **** is now - on holiday, which I can understand but not if he is negotiated a huge fight which he'll come off as the biggest winner.

    Arum always seems to throw a little tantrum when making these big fights. He then pisses off and tells someone else from Top Rank to negotiate on his behalf whilst releasing a few scathing comments to the press :lol:

    These negotiations have not been conducted with any dignity, have they? I agree with Schaefer that Arum should not be discussing different opponents for Pacquiao but, similarly, these testing arguments should have been done in private.

    I'll give him credit for that. King seems to pretty much be done. However you've got to wonder if it had anything to do with Arum passing the buck to his son. Maybe he is doing a better job. Arum is the famous mouthpiece but to my knowledge his son started the negotiations. Arum threw his rich kid brat act when he didn't want to work with GBP.

    Good riddance with the old stock. It's the new breed who can handle the competition from MMA. You should listen to Arum talk about MMA. The mans head is so far up his own arse its sickening.

    It's a disgrace. Get in a room and negotiate like PROFESSIONAL businessmen.

    The drug testing (how many tests etc) should have been negotiated behind closed doors.

    Schaefer exposed the old hasbeen by saying:"How ridiculous is that that Pacquiao would go and fight the guy who makes accusations that he uses performance-enhancing drugs instead of Mayweather [Jr.], who didn't make those accusations? Something is not right. I don't know how to explain it other than maybe Pacquiao doesn't want the Mayweather fight."

    To be fair, this was funny.
