    Of course these fighters will take the tests, they want a huge payday. How else are they gonna get it?

    So if you are already rich then you dont want an another huge payday? So why fight for less money then?

    Why are you fighting? Is it for money or to fight the best out there for legacy in your career? Either way and or reason for fighting, Mayweather is the guy you fight. He brings you the biggest payday and he brings you the biggest notch on your belt. Beating Mayweather would be the most accomplished name on anybodys resume.

    It's quite simple.

    Do you believe that Mosley would accept random drug testing to fight Paul Williams? Andre Berto? No. Would he to fight Pacquiao or Mayweather? We already found out.

    Of course everyone other than Pac would be willing to accept blood testing to fight Floyd.

    I agree with your points but egos get involved, Manny doesn't want to be bullied by Floyd. Manny already has more money than he ever dreamed of. At some point it is just a number. You've got to remember where he's living and how far money goes there. Also Manny's legacy is secure, he's an ATG if he never fought again. Floyd's potential opponents are at the bottom trying to climb up the mountain, Manny is already there.

    For everyone else in the sport Floyd is their only chance for a monster payday that they have never had and may never get. Nobody would be going through this to fight Clottey/Berto/etc.

    Why not? What about the fans? I dont understand this. You have a huge cloud over your head and legacy and you dont care to prove you are clean. I dont buy this ego argument at all. If he has more money than he can imagine then why is he fighting still? Cause he doesnt have more money than he can imagine. Pacquiao gives Bob Arum a big chunk of his money. Freddie Roach gets a nice paycheck. The rest of team Pacquiao has to be paid then you have the entourage to take care of. Also Manny is getting screwed on taxes by not being an American citizen and working in the U.S.. That's why Arum said Manny will only fight in Nevada, Texas, and Florida because they have no state taxes. He said Manny is already paying a **** load of money in taxes and he is trying to minimize the take by fighting in those states.

    that wasnt a steroid test, it was blood work done for his physical where they test for disease not drug use , maybe you should take your own advice

    Nobody has to prove themselves against every allegation made against them. Especially ones not made on the basis of facts. He passed every test required of him and every other boxer in the sport.

    Do you realize what the cost of living is? In 09 you could be a middle class couple and you're cost of living would be like $500 there. That's absurd. Manny isn't living a middle class life but it puts things into perspective.

    Just because he has a ton of money doesn't mean he should be giving it away. That's a dumb argument to make.

    Not every allegation but this is a huge allegation and it is damaging your image. Why not clear yourself if this allegation affects your job and how people perceive you.


    When did i say he should be giving away money? I didnt understand that statement.

    Talking about why he wants to fight in NV/FL etc. No **** he wants to fight in states without state income tax. Fighting in a state with a state income tax when you don't have to is giving money away.

    You do realize that if the commission implements blood testing that there most likely will not be a wide AZZ 20+ day gap like the one emmanuel is trying to ask for? What will he do then?
