    Does it help your argument when you make an even more ridiculous fake demand? :patsch

    Really...fanboys like you are too stupid to see this was Floyd's way of getting out. His decision to go on vacation and beat a woman should have been even more proof he has no intention of facing Pac. You're just a gullible **** who probably thinks Floyd really wanted to clean up the sport.

    This appears to be an AH HA type of moment for you. It really should not be though. Pacquiao is only stating the obvious...

    Hasn't Mayweather shown that he is in the BUSINESS of making MONEY? Hasn't he provided numerous quotes highlighting this? It's OBVIOUS...he does not hide that. He says it flat out. Does that mean that he does not understand the importance of the boxing fans and their role in making these boxing events what they are? OF COURSE NOT! You do not make PPV history without offering something that the fans want to see. He understands his appeal and he plays that up. It's good business...period.

    So, Pacquiao doesn't care about the money, huh? The transformation to politician is almost complete. The Congressman is speaking with a forked tongue, like a typical politician. Hmmm....Manny did not care about the money when he, initially, walked away from the ODLH fight over the purse split? Of course he did...C.R.E.A.M. (Cash Rules Everything Around Manny).

    He did not care about the money, when he bailed on the Hatton negotiations; because, Hatton asked for 50-50 either, I guess. Shame on Hatton for thinking the scores of fans he'd bring to the fight, from across the pond, as well as those here in the states, would merit such an offer vs a fighter who was not even really established in the weight class. Please...Hatton had to massage the Congressman's bruised ego by taking 48% instead.

    News Flash....THEY ALL CARE ABOUT THE MONEY! Especially Manny. If Manny didn't, he'd be fighting Timothy Bradley (who the fans voted for in a poll that TOP RANK posted), Andre Berto, Shane Mosley, Paul Williams, etc.... fighters that would be a different type of challenge for him style wise, but, don't make for the most lucrative B-Side--and who ALL wanted to fight him (some even calling him out).

    He does not seem to recognize his approach to the sport, post ODLH, is no different than Floyd's, post ODLH. They are both out to maximize their earning potential by taking on the best possible B-Side while not necessarily taking on the greatest challenges...risk vs reward. The Margarito fight is just another example.

    If it's a way of getting out CALL HIS BLUFF AND TAKE THE TESTS UP TO THE FIGHT. Not too hard. We can go in circles a million times but that is the bottom line. Both take the tests, we see the fight.

    I know that. I was saying ':lol: you serious' to your request of people staying classy and not taking up space with posts that only include 'void', 'vacation', and 'urge'.

    Idk if everybody thinks like me but.......I think that Pacquiao has done enough compromising.

    He went from 30 days cutoff date to 14 days and now 7 days. It seems like Mayweather wont budge at all.

    Its kind of hard to blame Pacquiao since Floyd isnt willing to say something other than no cutoff date.

    The only bluff here is you floyd fanatics falling for Floyd's ploy to get outta of the fight.

    Pac doesn't need to PROVE his innocense...that's just something you guys cannot get over.

    Floyd says he can beat Pac even if he was on PEDs...yet hs chose not to.
    Floyd says he just wnats a level playing field...yet chose not to come in at the agrees weight w/ JMM.

    Floyd's action in this negotiation process very easily show us what's going on. Floyd putting up road blocks for this fight. Instead fights a woman.

    All of that doesn't even matter, since Floyd ran on vacation the second time around.

    You either:
    1. See all this and just don't give a **** since you hate Pac
    2. Don't see all this since you're nothing but a floyd fanatic...

    What does anything in this post have to do with what I said? I said if Pac accepts the full random blood testing up until the fight we have a fight....

    It's funny how Floyd is playing the silent treatment like Haye did with the Klitschkos.

    :patsch You know what it has to do. Please don't play dumb. You already do a fine job at playing clueless to support your position.

    If you don't see it, well kid, there's always Batista for you to follow blindly...

    Nobody is following blindly... Floyd doesn't want the fight now enough to drop his drug testing demands. Manny doesn't want the fight now enough to accept the drug testing demands.
