    WTF does that have to do with anything you quoted from me? It doesn't.

    I said don't imply that Floyd used the tests to duck Manny and you implied that is what everybody thinks. So I was asking you if you think Floyd used to test to duck Manny, how did he know he'd decline them

    Most people? You must mean most of Pac fans on ESB. Because MOST of what I have read are people thinking more stringent testing is a good thing. The only real issue boxing writers have with Floyd is his decisions to go on random vacations at the height of his career. And that criticism is very much deserved. But random drug testing has little to do with it, because MOST boxing writers think its good for the sport.

    Jesus Christs....how does Top Rank and Pac saying they will do whatever tests the NSAC asks for, INCLUDING the tests Floyd wants, suggest he doesn't want to fight Floyd. :huh

    PAc is saying, "If you want me to take your tests, go through the commision, and I will" That is it. And somehow, to you die hard Floyd fans, that means he doesn't want it DESPITE it being Floyd who isn't taking that easy step to make it happen.

    I guess I should start with Examiner and work my way down.

    And after the 2nd negotiation there were quite a few ripping Floyd. But not anymore, thanks to Bob and Koncz brilliant marketing strategy and Pac last fight. Now I'm seeing more people question Team Pac every week. The tide of public opinion changes so easily I rather come up with my own conclusions.

    And my conclusion is that Bob has got his next opponent(Bradley) ready and the excuse(USADA is corrupt) ready for when the talks start up again. Mark my words.

    all this drug testing talk makes my head hurt. the bottom line is that a clean athlete does not refuse drug testing...simple as that...call Floyd whatever u want for asking for a test, but it's not an unreasonable demand in sports in this day and age...as a matter of fact I don't even think Pac is dirty, I just think the way Arum is handling this issue is making him appear suspicious.

    there's more to it than that.

    you don't make money and talk all the **** about someone's hard earned reputation in the process.

    While I think Pac should beat his ass in the ring for it, he's not going to give Floyd a paycheck and tarnish his name in the process.

    Obviously they have a problem with Floyd being the one to insist on the extra tests.

    The whole blood weakening thing...think about it whatever you want. Take anyone's words on it and say Pac said it. Doesn't matter. Old news that for some reason, posters keep bringing up. You guys can focus on old news, I look at what's on the table now.

    And if you think the easy way to get this fight done is a waste of time, then there's really nothing more to be said. That right there makes the fight. Got that. Floyd does his due dilligence, the fight is 99% made. But he doesn't want to do that, and for some reason, Floyd fans don't want floyd to do that either.

    Many boxers have done it for years. Ali, Holmes, Toney, etc. It only becomes a big deal if you make it into one. "I'm not going to fight him because he called me a name." That kind of thinking is why boxing has declined since its glory days. I remember a time when people just used an opponents ****-talk as fuel for their fire. Now its used as an excuse not to fight.:verysad
