    Here's what Mayweather says:

    “Throughout this whole process, I have remained patient, but at this point I am thoroughly disgusted that Pacquiao and his representatives are trying to blame me for the fight not happening when clearly the blame is on them.

    “First and foremost, not only do I want to fight Manny Pacquiao. I want to whip his punk [rear]. Before the mediation, my team proposed a 14-day, no-blood-testing window leading up to the fight. But it was rejected. I am still proposing the 14-day window, but he is still unwilling to agree to it, even though this is obviously a fair compromise on my part as I wanted the testing to be up until the fight and he wanted a 30-day cut-off. The truth is he just doesn’t want to take the tests.

    ‘In my opinion, it is Manny Pacquiao and his team who are denying the people a chance to see the biggest fight ever. I know the people will see through their smoke screens and lies. I am ready to fight and sign the contract. Manny needs to stop making his excuses, step up and fight.”

    14 days is more than reasonable.

    i'm with floyd on this - 14 day window seems reasonable. i don't understand pac's reluctance other than not wanting to "let floyd get one over him".

    Is what I was thinking :huh

    To be fair though, anything anyone says about these negotiations I take with a pinch of salt coz there's obviously a lot we don't know.

    This is how it should have went down.

    Mayweather wants random testing at any point.
    Pacquiao counters with 24 days out.
    Mayweather comes back with 14 days.
    Pacquiao meets in the middle and says 20 days.
    The fight gets signed.

    according to Mr HGH himself, Victor Conte 24 days is the magic window for avoiding detection. so if Pac was juicing anything less than 24 days would get him busted.

    Didnt Pacquiao want a 30 day no testing window before the fight like it says in Mayweathers statement?

    Surely something has got to be up if Mayweather is comprimising with a 14 day no testing window and Fanny Pacquiao is still refusing.

    Mayweather is bending over backwards to make this fight and even the most ardent *******s couldnt disagree with that.

    Erm isn't the 30 day no testing the normal?
    Therefore it isn't a demand of Pacs to want the normal is it?
