They won't respond to this. I've stated many times before too. Before they started the fight negotiation all the Floyd boys were claiming Pac would get schooled, KTFO, and exposed. But now they cling to the blood test. The ****ing blood test. All the talk about this being one of Floyd's easiest fgiht and his highest purse ever is swept under the rug. This is the same Pac that fought Hatton and Cotto. The same Pac they pissed on and YET he's to blame because Floyd wants to introduce a new test. It boggles the mind how they can say it was all Pac's fault when they have stated this is an easy fight for PBF yet he won't fight unless there is a blood test.
It's not even about if Pac test positive or not. Pac AGREED to these test, now he wants a cut off day. Pac wanted 30 days, Floyd wanted up to the fight. Floyd compromised and said 14 days. Basically half of what Pac wanted. Pac would only budge 6 days. If Pac would of never agreed to the blood test in the first place, I would see your point, but Pac said he would do it.
No, it doesn't. You have Arum who speaks for Pac. Lying through his teeth about what was offered and what wasn't. Pac agreed to test, simple as that. Now he wants his own rules despite Floyd compromising over and over.
That wasn't the question. Why did PBF even want the test? An easy fight and his highest purse to date. This is the same Pac that they have been claiming had no skill. Won't even be a contest.
pac wants his own rules? lol you sure pac wants to follow the normal boxing rules, it floyd who ants his own riles 60 urine tests and 3 blood tests are fair and enough, floyd is ducking pacquaio like he ducked, williams, mosley, berto, cotto, marg and many other fighters. his record proves he never wanted to fight pacqauio
For me, it is what it is. I try to stay away from saying any fighter ducks anther one b/c these guys are the ones putting their lives on the line not me. But it pisses me off when some posters refuse to look at ALL the facts just b/c it doesn't help their arguement. I'm not saying Floyd is ducking......but I am placing most of the blame on him for this fight falling through b/c of the evidence......Floyd has NONE to justify his demands nor the allegations he forced down the throats of everyone through the mass media...along with his other family memebers. PAC at least DOES have evidence to support "WHY" he is NOT the one resposible for the fight falling through.
That's what everyone seems to forget. It took weeks until they even complained about the tests. And their complaint wass that they didn't want to be tested within a few days of the fight and that they didn't want to use the USADA. So if they agreed to the tests, the whole argument that the tests are unneccesary is invalid. The weight penalty is unncessary as well. Imagine if Floyd accepted the penalty, then weeks later claimed he wouldn't pay more than $5 mill per lb, and then rejected a $2mill per lb. penalty.
Ok....you also have Schafer on behalf of Floyd who is also lying through his teeth to project may in the best light possible, regardless of the validity of his comments. It's funny you say it's PAC who wants his own rules when it's Floyd who has made an unpresidented demand for testing that has NEVER been done in the history of the sport. Who's request was it that caused these delays? You answer the question truthfully and you'll fing the one who is most responsible for this fight NOT being made. Simple as that.
I respect your stance Big....we just coming from different angles on this one. As fighters I have respect for Floyd and Manny.....I have no respect for people who lie. And for me Sr and Jr have lied about Manny. it would be one thing if the lie was to promote the fight...which I thought it was at one point, but that would mean the final conclusion would be that the fight got made. That ain't the case.....while both have a part in the fight NOT happening......And while I do place blame on the shoulders of both parties....The majority of the blame rests on Floyds shoulders...AGIAN.....that's just my opinion and who am I? I'm just a boxing fan with a keyboad and an outspoken mouth.
Cause Timothy Bradley's a Top 15 p4p fighter and he's not enough reward, way too much risk for FLoyd.
Actually, Pacquiao saying no to the testing and Arum pulling out of negotiations killed the fight. The fight was not dead until Pacquiao and his team walked away.
There would be outrage if Floyd did that. Over merely weight, at a weight he's never weighed over. And technically Floyd's never broken any weight clause because with Marquez a new contract was signed by Marquez. Floyd has compromised for Pac on this fight over and over, it seems that gets looked over because he merely wants the blood test.
