    Lots of fighters were supposed to be genuine threats until they got schooled. Mayweather is smart fighter and I honestly think that he has already been in there with more dangerous fighters. Mayweather just genuinely believes that there is something fishy about Pacman and just wants everything to be on the up and up.

    toxoplasma...you know if Mayweather turned up for his first bout and asked for his opponent to take extra drug tests, what would they do? Or after he won his first title, what would they have done? Or after his 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc title...what would they do?

    They would have laughed at him. Only now since the DLH bout is he in a position to demand/suggest his opponents take extra drug testing. Whatever his reason for it is. The above argument doesn't work.

    Pacquiao had about 40+ fights under his belt before he asked Cotto for catchweight. Why didn't he ask all of his opponents before Cotto for a catchweigh?? I guess buy your logic, that means he was scared of Cotto but Cotto agreed to the demand.

    :patsch What a stupid ****in comparison. Probably thought you had something good didn't you. The more you punks think you are on to something, the more obvious how clueless you little boys are. Pac didn't invent the catchweight ******. He's done what many other have done when your opponnent is just much larger. And you think that's the same as being paranoid and asking for OSDT all of a sudden? :lol: ****in Floyd fanatics...just dumb as ****. Go to college loser... :thumbsup

    I completely disagree...he hasn't fought anyone close to Pacquiao, and the threat that he offers. But Pacquiao being an active ATG, that's understandable.

    Either fighter gaining a win over the other is their career defining fight...that's why Pacquiao is the biggest threat to Mayweather's '0'...and Mayweather is Pacquiao's biggest threat to Pacquiao's win streak.

    Look you old lady, I find it funny that every time I post something, you come running to respond spewing to profanity and idiocy and just generally making no sense. Your hatred for Floyd is laughable:lol: yet sad at the same time. I can guarantee that I'm more educated than you:good

    With that said, Mayweather wasn't the first fighter to ask for additional testing. And besides, what he asked for was perfectly allowable by the rules. Try harder next time.

    I disagree with you as well but I respect your opinion. I honestly think that the DLH he fought at 154 was stronger and more dangerous that Pac, and the Mosley he fought while not as offensively gifted, was was a harder puncher as well.

    I think Pac presenets a little difficulty for the first few rounds, but I honestly believe that his rythym would be figured out pretty easily.

    WTF is it with you dumb little kids. "You post right after me....you're a stalker..."...:patsch Is that all you can think of? Poor little simple minded fools don't know how to think about anything else. this is a message board dumb****. I post after a lot of people, just like everyone else.

    And no, you are not more educated then me. And the reason I can tell is you write like a child. And your reasons, or excuses, are elementary at best. Rudimentary. Everything is so 'simple' to you. In a complex situation, nothing is simple. But in your cute, fluffy, wittle head, all is simple and easy!! :lol:

    I am aware Floyd isn't the first. Has nothing to do with the conversation. But Floyd did create the roadblock to get out of the fight. You have too much hero whorship to accept that. For you, ity would be like finding out there is no santa claus, which probably happened just last year for you. Well son, I have bad news about the easter bunny. :yep

    Did you ever stop to think there maybe something wrong on the other side if the coin.You cant just look at this from one sides perspective.

    Floyd never asked any of the other fighters to take the OSDT,but did any of these fighters that Floyd fought up untill now come up from 112lbs and start knocking out middleweights at the near end of there careers?

    Theres realy no right and wrong when looking at this Manny Floyd Jr fight and whether it will get made.

    IMO its not Manny Pacquiao and its not Floyd Mayweather Jr.Boxing evolved into how its run now and how fighters make so much money and get to much pull,or have to much say as to whom they will fight.

    IMO the fight will get made.Theres to much cash to be made for everyone involved.

    I highly doubt Floyd Jr or Manny retires without this fight happening.

    To answer the threads question....NO.

    You just wrote whole bunch of non sense that has nothing to do with the subject. Its obvious you have poor reading comprehension and when you can't refute a point, you get mad and resort to name calling. Its really quite sad that old ***** like you has nothing better to do than sit around on the internet and type profanities and argue with people half your age.:-(

    Go play with your grandkids or something.

    So now Pac is knocking out Middleweights? Who? :huh Is there really a need to exxagerrate if you have a legitimate point?

    I just don't get it. Is Pac juicing and KOing all these big, tough boxers as some hint at, or is he cherrypicking the easiest fight in a bit of fanciful macthmaking? Because it cannot be both, and these are the only two scenarios the 'haters' come back with.

    Of course, it doesn't take a seasoned trainer to be able to see how pac's technique has changed over the years either. But that can't have anything to do with it. too crazy. :D
