    The dispute between the camps of Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. has moved into a perilous time window, with Pacquiao's promoter saying he's ready to announce a fight with an alternate opponent Tuesday if he and the head of Golden Boy Promotions can't resolve the pre-fight drug-testing procedure.

    Schaefer, however, is expected to have a discussion later today with Pacquiao's camp in another effort to address the disagreement that threatens to scrap a welterweight title fight that could become the most lucrative in the sport's history.


    "I'm working to save this fight," Schaefer said. "We feel like we're making concessions, and they have a stubborn position, and that's unfortunate."

    When the alternative fight is "made" tomorrow you can be sure it won't be signed. It'll just be for show to put more pressure on camp Mayweather.

    Even if the fight goes ahead, it's been soiled now.

    To tell you the truth...With all of this stuff going on now with the steroids and such.Im not too sure i even wanna see this fight anymore. If Pac is really using PEDS i feel really bad for Cotto that will be two losses to cheaters. Pac needs to just agree and get it over with..Thats if he has nothing to hide.
