    :good I hear you Josak, but mate, I believe that both Manny and Floyd are the guys who make most of the decisions in their respective camps! And let's be honest, both could say "Enough of this ****, it's making me look bad, just get this fight signed" but this has not occurred! If this fight does not take place, then it is the fighters who are mostly to blame (And their "Camps" must also carry some responsibility)!

    Only 10% of the precints have reported but I am predicting a Pacquiao landslide victory.

    You make a poll and if the poster do not subscribe to your delusional thinking, you post an emoticon.

    Top Rank and GBP are to blame for perfectly setting up this drama to unfold and make its way onto ESPN and all other major broadcasting venues. It's so obvious that all the parties involved (even with Pac's possible reluctance to use this steroids angle to sell the fight) figure that there's no real point in letting this fight sell itself, and what better way to promote the fight for free and to the entire world than to get ESPN talking about this story day and night?

    Because honestly, having absolutely no drama involving two of the absolute most known fighters for one of the most anticipated fights of all time wouldn't make for the most profitable combat event of all time.

    If Pac had just came out and said he didn't want random blood testing because it has never been done before in boxing, plus the fact that he's been clean in the past, then that would have been good enough. However, he's come out with all these lame excuse which only makes it looks like he's hiding something...It's that simple.

    do you think it would stop GBP with all the press releases? and would it stop floyd sr. from thinking that pac was on PEDs?

    It would never stop in my opinion until Pacquiao agrees to the random testing without imposing some demands of his own...Even though it's his right whether or not to agree, his poor excuses are making him look bad, very bad...His image would look better if he just said no to an exam because it has never been done before and left it @ that...Anyone who disagrees with me on this one is clearly delusional.

    so why would it be better when all the mudslinging from GBP and floyd camp would not stop? his poor excuse is not actually poor and is not actually an excuse. he stated that he don't want to be extracted blood within the days of the fight because he feels it makes him weak. and he actually did not refuse the test as what GBP and some floyd fans likes to think.

    Both are to blame. I wouldn't let either off the hook for this travesty.

    I hope all of their remaining fights are box-office flops so that they'll be forced to realize that when you screw the fans out of the fights they want to see, you are really screwing yourself.

    Both guys had the opportunity to elevate boxing to heights it hadn't seen since the 1980s and instead they just gave the sport another black eye. Shame on you Floyd, Manny, Arum, and GBP.

    Why would he agree and then back out? Why would he claim he's afraid of needles or whatever when he's got tattoos? In fact, he's got tattoos that he made by himself...Why would he wish to control random testing procedures? That defeats the whole purpose of it being random..How come Mayweather has no problem meeting demands yet Pac can't have his blood drawn? Surely he's given blood before. Actions speak louder than words and his actions have provoked nothing but suspiciousness towards him...
