Why did Floyd duck Manny in 2009/10?

... and they were clean out of marinade ...

 

I don't like that story. I prefer the other one.

 

Because he was almost a decade younger than Pac and was waiting for him to get older?

Oh wait

 

pac was a beast

you cant blame him

 

The first fight was our fault. We just should have said, 'F--- it,' and done the testing. It was 100% our fault.
—FREDDIE ROACH, Pacquiao's trainer

Irrefutable. Pacs own trainer said he wishes they would've done the testing.. It was 100% their fault. They test.. They get the fight.. They didn't test.. No fight. Being "scared of needles" is why the fight didn't happen.. Any other opinion is just hate for Floyd

 

That's one way of looking at it. But what is your opinion on the drug-testing explanation?

 

good excuse used by many

fighters today to avoid big fights

 

May nervously claimed that Pac's skull always became abnormally enlarged prior to fights.

 

They say Manny refused to take the test. What's your take on that. Is there any truth to it?

 

Roach has admitted this several times in many interviews yet idiots haters and trolls refuse to acknowledge it. They want to keep up this false narrative to keep their agenda going. It's always been clear as day that it was pac who ducked pbf the first time because of testing period.

 

Of course there's truth to it. Did you not see the article and quote from roach posted earlier in this thread?

 

I'm very disappointed that they hadn't fought in 2010. I think that outcome would've been the same. But it would've been more interesting and a higher-paced fight, when both (not only Pac) were younger, quicker, and better overall than 5 years later.

 

I just noticed that did read them but was wondering if they are truthful quotes or based on mere gossip. No offense intended but sometimes that kind of misinformation happens. Also, sometimes statements are made and taken completely out of context to make them seem to say something else.
So I was just curious on whether this is considered to have been the case by those who disagree that it was Pac's fault.
