    I keep hearing about how Floyd had this planned all along. I keep hearing fans say "he planned it from the start and he never really wanted the fight, he knew the drug test item would be a big deal and he was bullshitting the whole time."

    I see a HUGE FLAW in this argument though...IN ABLE TO KNOW THE WHOLE TIME THAT HE WOULD USE THIS TO GET OUT OF THE FIGHT (AS MOST PAC FANS SAY) HE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE KNOWN THAT MANNY WAS AFRAID OF NEEDLES AND DIDN'T WANT HIS BLOOD DRAWN...PROBLEM IS THAT HE WOULD HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING THAT MANNY WAS GONNA PUT UP THIS MUCH NONSENSE IN NEGOTIATIONS.

    DID FLOYD PLAN TO GET OUT OF THE FIGHT FROM THE BEGGINING, USING THE DRUG TEST ITEM AS A REASON TO GET OUT?

    EXPLAIN

    Nop, but it apparently gave Pac the way out of the fight that he wanted.

    Well.. if that was his masterplan.. then he had to have prior knowledge that Pacman actually would not concede to take a different version of a steroid test. Who would of thought it would of been a big deal...lol.

    Dont really know,what i know is that this quickly went from fraud saying it was an easy fight to him only wanting to fight Pac if he takes random blood tests,something must have happened in between those two things and it probably has to do with his crackhead father.

    This

    I didn't really expect Pacman to pass on 40 million $, because of a simple drug test

    Not from beginning no- I think he lost his bottle after the agreements were made and the date was pencilled.

    Respect that blade:thumbsup...but was this a plan all along by Floyd so he could get out of fighting Manny and instead fight someone else? Whats ur thoughts on that one as well as why? I just don't see Floyd TRYING TO WALK AWAY FROM 40 MILLION AND "LOOKING" FOR A REASON TO DO IT

    Wasn't that needle issue only included in Golden Boy statements? Team Pac and Pac himself never mentioned needles if I recall correctly.

    I still maintain that this entire "story" really isn't a story and it was perfectly cooked up by Arum and Schafer, although I think it's possible that at the same time, Arum is also trying to gain exclusive rights to Pacquiao.

    Well since Floyd has no plan b and Manny is pulling out fighters out of the crack of his ass and is the side pulling away from the table over some bull**** non monetary stipulation..lol Manny should let the NSAC do its job and penalize Floyd for being over the weight instead of a 10 million dollar penalty. Kind of depends on who you are. If I am not a steroid cheat I wouldnt give a **** about a random blood test. But I would give a **** about losing 10 mill for not making weight. Who the **** does Manny think he is "dictating" terms and penalties. Or is his side just trying to protect their fighter....... see the sarcasm.... and irony.. lol hypocrite bitches.
