    i answered you based from pac's interview and knocz short answer on 24/7.
    my point is pac has been flexible enough to make this fight while floyd keeps on moving the goal post.

    so what happened then when floyd initially agreed to a cut-off? is floyd that inflexible just to make this fight? how much more does pac has to bend in order to make the fight?

    Jones still has a lot of fans, almost anyone wants him to retire for his health and legacy now, Of course in the first place protect yourself, make money for yourself and your family.
    But you cant neglect your fanbase, they make money by buying your ppv's, merchandise,going to your fights etc. also defending your rep on fora like this one, saying you dont care about them and not giving them the fights they want is ungratefull, especially when you know he is already loaded and doesnt need to do it for the money anymore, plus big fights makes him rich as well.
    People who are enjoying Jones' downfall are haters, real fans will stand behind him, this will happen with mayweather as well if he loses or if he would end up like jones, would you not still support him?

    Floyd if your reading this. Just stop it already and ****in fight him. Stop with all the steroids/ racism excuses. This is why we don't stand behind you. Pac fights for his people and you fight for yourself and money. I.was really pulling for you but after those comments i want pac to knock you out cold.

    pac will not say anything on public things that would make it seem like he is calling floyd. it would just further boost floyd's ego and might make him demand more in the negotiations. and if you are listening to pac, he wants this fight but if floyd would be ****in around, he does not need floyd as much floyd needs him. his legacy is set with or without floyd and most would agree.

    It seems more like me number 1 I dont give a **** about anyone else which includes my fans, I hope the fight eventually happens its importing for boxing, but it should be this year otherwise it will be to late.

    I think we should all recall that it was Pacquiao's team(Bob Arum mainly) who just walked away from the table to make a fight with Clottey while they were undergoing mediation regarding an acceptable cutoff to both parties.

    Pacquiao really seems to listen to his team more than anything. If Floyd and Pac could sit at a table and negotiate themselves, this fight probably would have been done. But you have Floyd on one end, and you have Arum, Freddie Roach, and Pacquiao on the other end, where much of the negotiation/resistance was coming from Arum and Roach.

    I think floyds love for the sport is gone, it seems like a task for him the way he talks about it and its only about the money.
    If his heart isnt in it anymore he should retire, that applies to any boxer.

    Im sure 100% his heart is in it otherwise he would have no talk of this fight, it seems by his reaction everywhere he goes he gets the same questions asked and he keeps saying the same answers and there comes to a point where you get exhausted by repeating the same thing over and over again and that was what we heard over the radio, not a question of whether is heart is in it imo.

    If PAC fights for his people he would agree to the full testing right?

    He says he wants the American fans to stand by him and support him, but when told that this fight must happen, he then he turns around and says its not about what the fans want, but instead about taking care of his family! He basically wants the fans to stand by him, yet he isnt giving them anything in return!

    Well hello!!!!! You can knock out 2 birds with 1 stone you idiot! Give the boxing world the fight it wants, then in return you'll have millions upon millions of dollars to take care of your family!

    I'm tired of these soft questions. Someone really needs to lay it on Floyd when interviewing him. When he starts rambling on about how Pac was KO'd twice and got beaten 3 times, and beats up on shot fighters, and weight drains his opponents, etc................They need to ask him "well Floyd, if all this is accurate and his resume is so unimpressive, why do you feel the need to have him tested?. What has he done that is so great that he needs to undergo extra testing?" LOL. I would love to hear Floyd's response!

    Sugar Shane didn't mind to do it.

    AND all in all, all commisions every where SHOULD be doing OSDT, they just can't in no way afford to enforce it across the board. Not every fight is worth over 100 mil, cause if they were it would be no problem to enforce the OSDT's.

    If a commision agree to that, they have to do it for everybody, not just the high profile fights.

    Commisions, from what I've read in article in Ring etc, would love to do the best tests available to ensure even playing fields, it's just not feasible.
