    Roach, Arum and Pac's behavior was superb.

    Doesn't matter if Pac took drugs or didn't previously. Mayweather has every right to ensure that Pac wouldn't look for an edge in the biggest fight in boxing history and he offered Pac the same opportunity by putting himself through testing along with him.

    What matter was a level playing field with testing that had no effect on the fight on fight night. That would show the millions and millions who followed them for that fight that they were clean athletes.

    I've not been able to make sense of your question.

    I said that Floyd threw up a road block and prevented the fight from happening, by behaving like he did.

    Fine. He wanted Manny to be randomly tested at any point, leading up to the day of the fight. Stop splitting hairs.

    My problem is not what Floyd was wanting, it was the way in which he went about it.

    I'd like to see random all year round testing for every fighter.

    I don't understand the question.

    We've got our wires crossed.

    There was no roadblock as drug testing has not proven to have any effect on the outcome of fights in the ring unless fighters depend on drugs.

    So the question is how can something that has no bearing on the outcome of the fight be a road block to the fight. And why is that acceptable to you.

    So he negotiated because he still wanted the fight then decided to lie and ask for cutoffs. K

    Concrete,

    He hasn't got the right to accuse Manny of being a cheat with no proof.

    You make it sound as though Floyd kindly asked Manny to partake in drug testing.

    Manny was attacked and backed into a corner. He was labelled a cheat, and then was issued with demands, if a fight was to take place.


    I'm all for a level playing field. I want random testing throughout the year.

    That's right, but nobody else has behaved like Floyd towards him.

    Manny's demands were in direct response to Floyd's initial demands.

    Floyd killed the fight from the start, with his behaviour.

    Then when Manny gave in to all of Floyd's testing demands, Floyd WANTED ALL of the PPV money.

    The fight was dead right there. Nobody who was serious about the fight would have demanded such a thing. That proves to me that he was never serious.

    manny killed it in 2010 when his team went back on his word saying they would fight, then didn't.

    the fight was dead when marquez whoopd on manny in 2011 actually, the all ppv offer was the last ditch effot to make the fight before marquez could get to him again
