Pacquiao Says: "I Will Crush Mayweather, Knock Him Out...I'm Mosley, right?"

[fabie]

Whether Pacquiao said this or not, it still not certain. But potentially he can literally....whereas Mayweather can also do the same to Pacquiao.

Both fighters are that good while Pacquiao's full talent still not reached just yet. I think that by the end of this year they will both fight and it will be another THRILLA IN MANILA type of a hype and billing.

I think that Pacquiao can beat him just that Mayweather's skills aren't as sharp anymore also. But that is not to blame Pacquiao. He is his own man.

Maybe you need to listen on what Oscar told Shane, Pac. If you try to punish Floyd with your anger, you might lose.

I don't think he is at all. I wished he would have taken the test(s) and proved everyone accusing wrong and THEN fought as everything else was agreed on.

As for taking tests, the tests he has been taking are from the failed system. The system that boxers, baseball players, football players etc. use. We already know 100% that that system has failed and humans can pass these tests even when taking PEDS. Its a fact. 100% a fact.

I'm not saying Mayweather went about the tests the right way, I'm just agreeing with EVERY fighter randomly getting tested when under contract/has a license to a fight. Whats wrong with cleaning the sport up? Is it only because Pac didn't agree? If it was anyone else would people be all for it? Again, the main reason people are against these tests is because they hate Mayweather. If this was Pacs idea the shoe would be on the other foot!

I like both guys, I just don't agree with Pac not taking the tests. Clean or not he is the reason we didn't get to see a fight. He walked away mentally destroyed and scared ****less (apparently) about blood. Looks bad, especially to a non boxing fan. All they know is fighter A turned down only the biggest fight in history because of a blood test. Reason? He's scared to give blood? Sorry, that just looks very bad for the sport as if it doesn't already look bad enough. MMA is killing it slowly and softly....

If Pac would have said yes we would have us only the BIGGEST fight in history coming up........ but he said no, yet everyone blames Mayweather for Pac's decision of not taking these tests? and Yes I know Pac was "willing" to take these tests but only up until so many bla bla bla days..... end of the day he didn't want to randomly take them.

Again I like both Pac and Mayweather but Pac didn't want the fight. As Roach explained, Pac wasn't ready for a fighter like Mayweather in March.......

IMO they wanted a warm up fight first then Mayweather in September was the plan. Once they brought the $10 million weight penalty to the table they figured Mayweather would have said no. He called the bluff and now Pac looks bad. Fighting a lesser fighter, taking less money, and wont do near as well on PPV as Mayweather Mosley will do. Ultimately we the fans suffer because of a ****** blood test that he didn't want to do. LAME...... Again MMA is killing the sport because of ****** ***** hurt feelings **** like that. To top it off he went to ***** court..... More lame and the sport only looks more like a bunch of *******/divas.

Green K! The Media is just biased against the bad image athletes. Like you said, if it was Pacquiao who was asking for Floyd to submit himself to that test, most people would praised him and crucify Floyd. But since it's the bad guy who is asking for that request, they don't think he has the right to ask for it.

But Pacquiao didn't ask him to test. The morale of the story is that a BOXER cannot demand anything invasive (though it is for both sides) such as this test.

That's why there's a commission for that, the NASC.

"Blame" should be put squarely in both boxers' shoulders because they should have resolved their differences but the differences are that the MAYWEATHERS capitalized on this very issue to a point of "stealing his thunder" because they are not longer the KING of boxing, Pacquiao is.

Thus I believe that these petty demands are going to be resolved by the end of the year for a fight. NSAC should step in...and impose such rules.

Perhaps it may be impractical to impose the rules on every fight so perhaps on every TITLE DEFENSE?

The issue is also that URINE TESTINGS are that good now that the future of boxing should be put on this, because it would be impractical or pretty much invasive for any champion to be put to these rigors for every title defense.

But back to the topic...."Refusal" to test isn't an admission of guilt, far from it. It is the admission that one doesn't want to be relented or submit to another boxer's whim whereas there are no "red flags" up previously for both boxers.

Notice I said BOTH BOXERS. Both were deemed "clean" by the NSAC and both in good standings. I think that the timing is an issue too on Mayweather's sudden interest on "cleaning up the sport"...

At any rate, instead of going back and forth, let's just see when they both fight. I really wanted both to bring it on and settle this in the ring. Not outside.

And most definitely, the boxing fans or posters here would also quit on settling these on "who is better" just by talking. Of course anything can be discussed though civility isn't one of the things that we can see from both sides.

Fact of the matter is that if Manny Pacquiao wanted to fight
Floyd Mayweather Jr that bad he would have agreed to the
14 day random tests, signed the contract and it would have
been on and popping. Can't believe how so many are making
a big issue out of this. What is the big deal about taking a
random blood test if Manny is clean, also it will be better for
the sport and considering the one who requested it would
be taking it as well? Wasn't like Floyd just wanted Pac to
take it. To me that would have been slander and accusing
someone before knowing for sure BUT Floyd agreed to the
same F**K'N tests. Pac fans and supporters kill me with the
excuses and cosigning bull****! The excuse that kills me the
most is "Floyd asked for the tests because he knew Pac wouldn't
except"? What kind of MORONIC statement is that? Especially
if Pac according to his fans has NEVER tested positive before? I
think Roach and Pac knew that March would be too short of a time
to prepare for Floyd and that's why all through the training for Clottey
Roach was watching tapes of Floyd and Pac was mimicking Floyd's
style. How much more F**k'N evidence you mofo's need to understand
that Roach knows Floyd is that good that he needs time to
develop Pac for Floyd's style? Roach said it himself!!!!!!
Shhhhhhhheeeeeeeeesssss! Roach at even happy with the Clottey
fight.

floyd knew that if he played hard ball with pac, pac would walk. just look at pac's diva behavior for the morales II, dlh, and hatton negotiations.

pac is difficult at the negotiation table. we have seen this with dlh and hatton and morales II, and even after pac/jmm I.

this is nothing new and floyd knows it.
