    I have purposely stayed away from these debates. Ill put one comment.
    Manny, it seems, finally agreed to the test. Pretty Boy, sign the contract.
    FLoyd seems like he wants to stack the cards. Seems cowardly. His wins are not impressive.
    All fighters cherry pick.
    Both box great. Manny is more exciting to watch, and takes way more risks. Fan favorite. Period.
    Does money generate more? I think people want to see him lose. He will guard that closely though. He knows what he is doing when taking fights, just like Roach. Asking for the test IMO is suspect.

    The only mind games Floyd is playing, are with his fans.

    It's real simple, if you want somebody to give into your demand and if you really want to fight someone, you don't go into the media like a coward and call him a cheater and racist slurs. The guy publicly defamed his career and character, yeah that's sure going to somebody to give into you.

    You keep thinking that while Floyd counts his millions.

    Dude bull****, so fighters don't make fun, talk ****, and even get personal in terms of their opponent or potential opponents? So it would have been ok for Frazier to not fight Ali cause he called him an uncle Tom? Or Tito to pull out of Hopkins fight cause his feelings were hurt? I mean this goes on and on, bottom line this is a weak ass, ***** ass justification for not fighting. If anything, I would think this would drive someone to want to fight that much more.

    Because athetes cheat, great athletes cheat, HOF caliber athletes cheat, really good people have been caught cheating, it falls on PAC because there's zero wrong with asking for extra protections from cheaters (not saying PAC is cheating necessarily).

    And if Pac counters by demanding that both fighters must subject themselves to a full year's worth of testing starting from the day after the JMM fight before the two fighters step into the ring against each other, would we be right to fault May if he refused that?

    Or what if Pac demands 2 years worth of testing? 5 Years? At what point does testing become an unreasonable demand?

    It could also cause someone vindictive/enraged enough to say "Hell with you, I'll fight other people and earn my dime that way. You aren't getting a single penny from by blood, sweat and tears!" Considering Pac's culture, I see this as completely plausible.
