    Period. I'm going to try to stop talking about it unless some new news of life comes out for the fight to happen in March.

    If this fight dies now due to this blood testing bull****... then Floyd isn't going to have a choice if he ever wants to fight Pac again. I don't blame Pac one bit either. He should be forced to do something that has never been asked of any other professional boxer in history. It's downright demeaning to him... let alone the fact that the man still actually agreed to give 3 damn tests including one in the dressing room directly after the fight. This **** is complete nonsense. Floyd has bullshitted his way out of more tough fights than any boxer in recent memory.

    Pacquiao already agreed to 24 days, so they might just go with that.

    Whatever, no blood testing, 24 days, 14 days, just make the ****ing fight happen. Boxing needs it.

    He should try the 24 days. As his first line of negotiation. If they accept, then good. If not... then drop it.

    You know what would be crazy? If Floyd actually just got into the ring and fought and didn't have to have a bunch of unreasonable and degrading requests met by his opponent in order to do so.

    No, but Duran, Hagler, and Hearns wouldn't have denied us a megafight because of a little tint of blood and a cutoff date being too soon.

    I think it's more to do with Mayweather's ego than anything else. He wanted to bully Pac in the run up like he does with all other fighters. If Pac has agreed to 24 days then ayweather should really take it and sign.

    It wouldn't surprise me. Robinson was a notorious dickhead in negotiations.

    Ah, so we're in mutual agreement that Pac and Floyd are both being bitches about this. Our old school warriors wouldn't have done this.

    The blood is not a problem for Pac. The date is a problem for Floyd.

    There is blood 24 damn days! Just agree to that. The man is giving blood. Whats he gonna do pump himself full of drugs for two weeks?? lol
    Hes taking another test after the fight.

    The date is a problem for both of them.

    I agree, but I also don't see why Pac can't agree to two weeks. That won't effect him. Floyd is a baby and ridiculous... we get that. But Pac is giving up 40 million because he wont jump on the 14 days agreement.

    Maybe Floyd can just agree and save the fight.
