Mayweather/Pacquiao: "The Other Guy Didn't Want The Fight" - Who Is Lying?

I don't think either camp or boxer have been lying, I think it went exactly how it was portrayed through the media. But I do know that both camps were in the wrong for this bout not happening, especially Bob Arum. Both boxers gave up a lot when it came down to negotiating the blood testing. But near the end, from what was being shown through the media, it didn't really seem as if Pacquiao understood what was going on...it was as if Arum was not keeping Pacquiao and his team informed. What I believe it came down to was Arum didn't want Mayweather dictating anything, he had to settle for the 50/50 split, so his way of gaining an advantage was to not give into Mayweather's demands. And if you look at who Pacquiao is facing now, Clottey, another Top Rank fighter, you can see Arum is all about the money.

 

Bob Arum, Freddie Roach, Mike ****s, I mean Koncz....Manny Pacquiao are mostly at fault in that order....

The fact that Mayweather negotiated everything, including the drug testing, tells me who didnt want that fight...

 

im a pac fan but i think team pac didn't want the fight to happen this march. this fight will happen late 2010. too big not to happen. but if this won't happen, i blame Arum.

 

The ts will do anything to show his loyalty as a fanboy..keep it up fanboy.

 

neither...
i think this is all planned out... 'coz why they haven't released what happened during the negotiations??... the fight is now off and done for more than a month and both fighters are having their own respective fights...

IMO both parties agreed to hype things out w/ the war of words... as u can see everyone is more eager to let these 2 fight in the ring

 

I voted undecided.

Because it's pretty obvious that on both camp, pride get in the way. They both want the fight but want's mind games in the mix while negotiating - just like every other big fight. But it's got out of control. Before both camps realise the mistake, it's too late already.

 

typical fanboy..all talk no walk.
die hard fanboy..:|:|

which are you?

 

one request was asked..olympic style test and he even gave a fair cutoff 14 days out.

Floyd had to agree to Pac's demands as well.

 

why sholdnt it be at 147 he won the tittle.

All Floyd said was no Dallas...dont recall him ever sayin vegas only but if so....how does that hurt anyone???

50/50 is fair for BOTH..why should either get a bigger purse?

Why would this not be a tittle bout being as it is a mega fight at 147?

Actually the date was something Arum and them came up with Floyd just agreed to the date...Roach gave several dates which Floyd said yes to all of them then the final date SETTLED upon for both was 13 March.

PAC never said yes to olympic style testing which is RANDOM not SET dates.:good

 

Mayweather is the liar of course. He never wanted this fight from day one.

Boxers get found out. Vargas, Mosley, Toney and many others got found out and if Pacquiao wasn't clean it would be no different.

 

He did agree, he also agreed to test right after the fight. So even if he were to load back up during the cut-off dates, they would still be found after the fight.

 

Ok i get it..

YOU'RE BOTH.:yep

 

No he did not agree to Olypic style testing which is just RANDOM...you dont get to give three test dates you dont get to pick your time or when.

YES he agreed to give the blood sample but he PICKED the dates thats not what OLYMPIC testing is...its ALL RANDOM...out the blue.

And testing right after the fight proves nothing now days with the advancement of PED's which can clear your system in short periods but still have made its affects.

Look i dont know if PAC uses or not but damn Floyd gave him opportunity to put the shyt to rest...even if it was a bullshyt request....PAC or his team chose to avoid the test by all means...even giving up 40 mill....that says alot.

Dont forget this test is the same test Floyd and now Mosley are FINE WITH TAKING before there big fight.
