    He was so scared that he started the whole fight process by contacting TR and Arum and getting the fight in place only asking for something that both fighters would do that had no effect on the fight.

    Floyd Snr accused Manny of cheating, and Floyd Jnr agreed with him, BEFORE any negotiations took place!

    Mayweather didn't do it for the good of the sport, but that doesn't even matter. Manny backed himself into a corner by accepting it at first and then back tracking in the last hr after agreeing to split, venue, weight, billing etc.

    Floyd agreeing and looking to add in drug testing is not an accusation. All Manny had to do was decline it from the original contract and stay consistent with his reasoning. If Manny declined the testing from the beginning and stated from the beginning he didn't like having testing taken close to the fight again from the beginning he would have came off looking better. Even then 14 days was more then a good enough offer.

    Floyd Snr was entitled to his opinion. But he had no proof that Manny was cheating, and his opinion was based on something weak.

    You say Mayweather offered testing.

    No he didn't!

    He ran with his Dad's claims, and demanded that Manny be tested all the way up to the fight.

    How did Manny RUN from the fight?

    What do you mean your quotes don't support that?

    Yes, they tried to make a laughing matter out of it, but they ended up suing for defamation of character, and The Mayweather's were taken to court and made fools of themselves.

    After the court case, Floyd Snr said "Well, I never said he was definitely on something."

    Pathetic and hilarious at the same time.

    I see you've swerved my questions again.

    Why don't you ask yourself why Floyd demanded what he did in the first place, when no other fighter has had the same issue.

    Floyd fought for 13 years, until a beacon of light hit him, and he decided it was time to clean up the sport :lol:

    Your posts keep being ignored, because nobody can argue against what you've put.

    I did. I'd say he was suspicious. And he offered Manny 50-50 and testing. Manny ran and fought Clottey.

    Yeah, lets also ignore the fact that people had been caught using for that 13 years Floyd was fighting and he still had no problems getting in the ring. There was no telling who could have been using when he fought them. He got nervous when he saw a fighter and a style that he was not comfortable with and thought he might actually lose and started making accusations and demands. How do people not see or understand this?

    You continue to post this stuff but what does it matter. Testing has no effect on the fighters performance or outcome of the fight. So what would these demands have accomplished if Pac never back tracked and ran from no cut off or 14 day cut off and the fight got made other then that a higher possibility that both fighters were clean?

    If testing has no effect on the outcome of the fight how would that prevent Pac from being as good as he was vs Hatton and Cotto. The answer is it doesn't.

    So Mayweather offering testing which at the end of the day only ensure a higher probability of a clean fighter, but yet would still get the same Pac from the Hatton or Cotto fight = scared.

    But Pac running from a 14 day cut off from testing is because his feelings were hurt. Yea ok

    So because Manny didn't agree with what Floyd wanted, that constitutes as Manny RUNNING AWAY in your opinion? :lol:

    I agree that testing wouldn't have affected the outcome, and I think Floyd would definitely have beaten him, as do many others.

    It's just a shame that Floyd didn't share the same confidence.

    Concrete,

    I agree, but that's not relevant to what we're discussing. Nobody can predict the future.

    It's also unheard of for a fighter to demand all of the PPV revenue in what would have been the biggest grossing fight of all time.

    What do mean his guarantee would be lowered?

    Manny originally wanted a 50-50 split, and then he agreed to 45-55 which I agreed with.

    But Floyd wanting the PPV revenue was a complete and utter joke, and nobody would have agreed to that.

    There wasn't any money to be made. Because when Floyd pulled that stunt, it was obvious to everyone that he wasn't serious about making the fight.

    Pacquiao, years before Mayweather, had stated he doesn't like getting his blood drawn so close to a fight. Was it a lame excuse for a loss? Maybe. But many athletes have weird beliefs. He eventually agreed to all the testing and even at first would have took a blood test right after the fight. My point is I find it hard that Mayweather was really willing to make the fight when his actions and words said otherwise for years.
