Thats why I've always said they are both to blame. Have nearly used every excuse in the book. The blame is with us the fans who continue to accept it buy their PPV's. If the sales dropped they would make this other exciting fights or be falsed out of the picture so fighters who want to make a name for themselves that are willing to fight the best out there would get a chance
Maybe educate yourself first, it was Top Rank wanting to lay out the terms for the contract. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=4715684
Once the mayweathers made public their PEDs accusations. looking back, floyd and GBP always moves the goalpost either PEDs accusations, long vacations, losing the urge, moving the split, or sighting health and self-preservation.
Isn't Manny and your uncle Bob sighting blood tests weaken him and his "cut won't heal in time" also health concerns on their way to ducking the fight as well? Or are double standards OK over at PacLand?
atsch Playing dumb? Floyd's weight vs. JMM ring a bell? Pac's request is based on recent history. Floyd's on his crack head daddy's paranoia. The more you post, the more you show just how clueless you are. Stick with talking about purses. Like Coach or Versace...:roll:
So then if that was the precedent, why did Pacquiao request it against Delahoya? He had no history of weight problems. To prevent weight cheating and being at a disadvantage, yes?
In all honesty this is all old news. Amazed how some of you are speaking on this like it's some breaking news.
there was already a preliminary contract made between arum and haymon which arum brought to manila on dec. 4, 2009. on or about dec. 7, 2009, pac agreed to the contract. on dec. 12, grand rapid press reported an additional drug testing demand from ellerbe which killed the fight.
