    I think its gonna happen. Pacs mom is already telling him to stop fighting plus he's about to be a congress man. I'm pretty sure hes willing to fight that one last fight, and the only person the fans want to see him fight is PBF. Theirs too much money to miss out on and Floyd ain't gonna get a big payday like this with anyone else. They both really ain't got no other choice but to fight each other. I feel they both know this and know this is what everybody wants and will come through for the fans and boxing.

    IMO, PAc's differences with Floyd are principled.

    Floyd and his team are probably wasting their time arguing the point with PAc, who clearly has the 'moral right' on his side.

    Whatever testing Mosley agreed to is irrelevant.

    1) He was part of the Floyd promotional team and therefore would be expected to agree to give Floyd credibility.

    2) He didn't have the bargaining power to disagree. While he got around 25 % of the recent purse, it was a career hight for him. He had little choice.

    3) He was tainted by actual proof that he had been formerly juiced.



    None of these circumstances apply to PAc.


    Floyd and his team should petition the NSAC to finish their 'study' of the testing done in his last fight, and pilot the protocol for say, a year, for all title fights.

    I believe that Pac would agree to any tests that the Commission introduced.

    This would allow both sides to reach an agreement and schedule the bout.

    50-50 split of the purse.

    Or, for a twist, 40-40 with an extra 20 for the winner.


    The deal is out there.


    Just waiting to be made.

    A judicious post. All fair points, though I disagree about the petitioning since I don't think Floyd is going to be around long enough or cares to launch a lengthy campaign. At this point he's just gonna lead by example and ensure a level playing field in his own fights. That said, I love 40-40 with the remainder going to the winner. I think all fights should be that way... and in this case, that extra 20% would amount to some serious cash. Unfortunately, in the grand scheme of things, it would make robberies even more painful for deserving winners... and some of them need every bit of their paycheques when they're not fighting for millions, or even hundreds of thousands. In this case though, **** yes.

    u can say the same about anything man....fact is i guarantee u any fighter not named manny pac who fights floyd will take the tests...manny dont take em than theres no fight..damn shame...

    Martinez would take em..williams would take em...berto would take em...and im sure that any other fighter at 147 would take em..

    But just like u all *******s talk about..."manny not takin em" so now im sayin than there is not gonna be a fight and thats that
