    I kind of figure it wasn't going to happen once I seen the first Pac Marg 24/7. Manny said how he did not need to fight Floyd, which means he's never gonna submit to taking the drug test 100% and Floyd is not gonna fight him unless he does. So because of those reasons, the fight will never happen and I blame both sides for it, even though in the video Roach portrays as if it's only Floyd fault. It takes two to tango and neither one is willing to bend for the other.

    :lol: "Because of THOSE reasons...."

    Yeah, Floyd's unsupported accusations and allegation on PED usage, or his insistance on creating a road block for the fight (that he never did before), then lying about negotiations, then beating a woman instead, had NOTHING to do with this fight never happening. Good post, I can see you thought this out very much. :thumbsup

    His statement is about as objective as it can get in regards to the situation. Both sides are to blame. If the blood tests are a road block then I can easily say preferred gloves and a weight penalty fit in the same category. Why can't you look at it from both sides? I know you're a biased fan, but ****, it's not like Team Pac never falters or have never contradicted themselves throughout the negotiation process. Like it's been said, it takes two to tango. If the two men were my kids I'd whip both their asses for not doing their chores on time. I'm not going to sit there and listen to a repeated cry of, "It's his fault! No, it's his fault!"

    Dude, can we not agree that both sides are at fault? I can't believe you would even mention lying, dude the Pac Camp has been dishonest since the first round of negotiations and that isn't an opinion that has been demonstrated and documented. Pac didn't want to submit to the best PED tests available, regardless who requested them, it sucks and it makes no sense. Bottom line, they both are at fault.

    That means little comging from you. I have looked at it from both sides. WTF do you want? For everyone to say "Floyd had the RIGHT to make accusations, then sabotage the fight based on those allegations?" Is that it? :roll:

    :patsch Enough of this "Both sides...blah blah..."

    Floyd started the entire downfall with his crack daddy's accusations, then his insistance on "cleaning the sport" (don't tell me you still buy that buill****?)

    Floyd is the one who started a whole new process when negotiating came up. HE found the perfect roadblock.

    floyd lost his 'urge' to fight...Anyone who still thinks Pac shares the blame is either crazy or need to get floyd's nuts out of their mouth...

    Pac has already conceded 90% of the way, Floyd just needs to budge an inch

    If Pac wins, they've already stated they aren't campaigning at JrMW. And there will be no Pac vs. Floyd.
