I am beginning to believe that Mayweather is copying Leonard's style to wait ....

    Most boxing experts agree that the last thing a puncher loses is his power. Thus, speed, agility, and timing go out the window as a fighter gets older. It is the reason George Foreman was able to have success at such an advanced age.

    If we apply this idea, that power is the last thing to go, to Floyd and Pac then it seems that Floyd is the one who will be hurt by waiting.

    Finally, has Pac taken alot of damage while in the JWW and WW divisions? Hatton, DLH, Clottey, Margarito and Shane did not do that much damage to him. What wars has he been in recently?

    or is he cycling?

    but the thing is he will wait for pac to sign a contract and he will announce that he would fight somebody else. after pac signs a contract he would get out from his vacation.

    same routine.

    Its pretty obvious that mayweather is extremely calculated when it comes to fighting guys, he protects his zero and make big money. But every time another fighter is on fire there is some bull**** excuse which is always someone else's fault, he could have fought pac earlier but he had to create roadblocks and eventually go on vacation and lose his urge in the meantime the years are passing and pac is slowing down, which really sucks because it was a extremely important fight, it gets less significant while time goes by.

    It's Mayweather who will be knocked cold like RJJ when he gets old if he continues to fight.

    It's bound to happen and I can't wait to see this board when it does. Remember how all of the boxing boards were before Jones was KO'd. You would've thought the guy was the best fighter to ever walk the Earth.

    This would only be logical if Mayweather dropped his blood testing demand to fight Pac. Pac taking 2-3yrs to fully agree to blood testing has no barring on Mayweather.

    And I don't want to hear how Pac already fully agreed. Mayweather finally spoke and stated Pac never agreed to full blood testing. If that was false then why didn't Pac's camp call Mayweather out on it and put the pressure on him. Plus it was confirmed by Konz, and there is even more proof by Arum stating that he doesn't want USADA or what ever and that he will do everything to make sure drug testing isn't a problem anymore. Why would he feel the need to say that if they already fully agreed to the testing and Mayweather was the one holding up the fight.

    The fight taking this long to be made is both there faults. And could have been done already with the acceptance of 14 day cut off the first time and 7 day cut off the second time.
