    Yes or no?? I know we've had lots of threads on this subject but lets put it to the vote. Malinaggi and Cotto have spoken out against Pac saying he should take the tests and end all doubts - if your clean and have nothing to hide then whats the big deal? By not taking the tests you give the doubters something to wonder about!!

    Just do it. Steroids don't make you skilled like Pac.

    Pacquiao should just take the test.

    no, he likes the the cloud of suspicion around him.

    He should agree to a sanctioned test and if Mayweather says no, then **** it.

    I don't see a reason not to prove he has nothing to hide but if the cards are stacked in Mayweather's favour for this test, for whatever reason, then Mayweather needs to stop being unreasonable.

    He should sign to fight Foreman or Marquez, take the olympic blood tests to prove he's clean, & walk away from Mayweather. No way should he give Mayweather a $40 million dollar payday now.

    i wouldnt take the test if it was me. boxing negotiations start a long time before the fight, and this is just another of those things where you try getting into yr opponents head and proving you have the upper hand, by making them do things in your favour at your demand. its like the debate of 55 45 pay.. you are trying to show who is the bigger man by this sort of behavour. **** fmj there is no way in hell i would bow to his demands if i was fighting him. you'v got a big enough task anyway just getting in the ring with him let alone him dictating the build up IMO

    Man I want to see this fight bad... So my two cents take the test and whoop Mayweathers ass. But it's much easier to say when it's not your name in the dirt...

    Basically the 10 million dollar penalty is Pacman and camp not letting the NSAC do their job and they are applying their own penalty for a fighter not meeting the NSAC weight requirements. Its pretty much the same damn thing. A stipulation ADDED by fighter B that is unpresedented in the sport of boxing.

    What I mean is your saying Mayweather is being unreasonable with his blood test demands, isnt Pacquiao being unreasonable with his $10 million dollar weight penalty demands, its all in the contract.

    No, what I am saying is that if Pac agrees to take a sanctioned test, then that should be enough for Mayweather.

    And the last time Mayweather agreed to a weight limit he didn't make it so I can see why Pac is getting twitchy even if I don't agree.

    The reasoning that Pac will be 'drained' if he is tested just doesn't hold water with me.

    He did make the weight limit for a welter weight fight. Not the contracted lower weight limit. There is a difference.
