Floyd Jr. on Pacquiao: "It's Crazy How He Can Come to Our Country and Get Praised."

[Alibata]

Why can't people understand that no test = no fight.
If Bob wants prove that Mayweather is ducking then call his bluff. Agree to random test

Read my sig... Yeah Manny Pacquiao said that word for word.. Why doesn't floyd call him out on those statements... He has said it more then once, in interviews from big networks to tiny reporters... Why hasn't floyd called him out on that and make a fight.. "You said it Manny, heres the video, lets fight" Why?

[MindBat]

WHAT CONTRACT BUDDY?

what are you talking about?

All you are saying is what floyd wants for his terms. How can there be a contract when floyd's own team deny there were even negotiations being made?

seriously,

do you know something we dont?

Have YOU SEEN THE CONTRACT?

Guess I'll have to blow your disbelief and speculation out of the water...

Here you go. Let's how you try to twist this one...

Drug test procedures being debated

The Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather welterweight title megafight, tentatively scheduled for March 13 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, is in jeopardy because of the camps' failure to agree on the manner of drug testing for the fight.

In an interview late Tuesday with the Grand Rapids (Mich.) Press, Pacquiao promoter Bob Arum told the newspaper that the fight is off.

According to Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer, who is negotiating the deal with Top Rank president Todd duBoef, Pacquiao refuses to have his blood drawn within 30 days of the bout based on his superstition of testing so close to a fight.

"Todd told me that Pacquiao has difficulty with taking blood and doesn't want to do it so close to the fight," Schaefer said. "He, Pacquiao, would only agree to have blood drawn before the kick-off press conference and after the fight."

Two weeks ago, Pacquiao's trainer, Freddie Roach, told ESPN.com that their side had no problem with Olympic style testing.

"I have no problem with the testing whatsoever," Roach said then. "They can do whatever kind of drug testing they want. They're scared of Manny and scared of his power. He'll pass any test in the world."


"Team Mayweather is very surprised that an elite athlete like Manny Pacquiao would refuse drug testing procedures which Floyd has already agreed to and have been agreed to by many other top athletes. Why would Pacquiao refuse to have the same kind of testing that Lance Armstrong, Michael Phelps, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant have had?"

"We have agreed on all terms, including the site," Schaefer said.

In addition, Schaefer told ESPN.com that the sides had agreed on an unprecedented penalty if either fighter weighed in heavier than the contract limit of 147 pounds.

"We agreed to $10 million per pound, or fraction thereof," Schaefer said. "That's what the Pacquiao side wanted and we said OK to that. That's unheard of. We have agreed on everything except for this drug testing issue. I have to think Pacquiao is unaware of this. The drug testing had been part of the contract for a while and then they suddenly said no. I was informed of that [Tuesday] morning. Suddenly they changed course and I don't know why."

Pacquiao wanted a huge monetary penalty if Mayweather was overweight because he ignored the contract limit of 144 pounds for his September fight with Juan Manuel Marquez, coming in at 146 pounds and paying a $600,000 penalty for the extra advantage.

This dude is full of himself.. who pays for your ppvs/fights?

Floyd Fans: I love you Floyd.. lifestyle flaaasshhyy...

[ALG United]

You're writing too much.

I called you out to provide a legit source and you still haven't provided any sort of proof that Manny signed anything.

Why am I not surprised?

You are reaching kid, it is clearly stated that Manny made a concession in the interview, it can be through a peeler, letter, email or even twitter, the important thing is he yielded to Floyd's outrageous demand, and that should have started the final negotiation...

again,

you are only posting what floyd's wants for his CONTRACT, not Pac.


A valid contract is a contract that IS AGREED & SIGNED BY BOTH PARTIES.

Pac doesnt want to concede to floyd's testing demand.

Wow, big ****ing surprise.

Tell us something we dont know.

When did showing a ESPN article about what floyd wants in his contract become a legit contract?

This guy wants proof/evidence?! Same guy asking Manny to take OST (no proof/evidence of Manny taking PEDs).. which Manny had already accepted by the way.. Fucking delusional... I'm telling you, these dudes are falling apart and can't believe what's going on..

Instead his camp denied the negotiations took place then he went on "vacation". Pretty obvious he's ducking Pac, floyd fans know it, they just refuse to admit it.

Bold: I really don't know how true this statement is...

I have more boxing friends than I would care to count, and 99% of the time, they cheer american...No matter who is fighting.

American boxing fans have alot more pride than you or Floyd are giving them credit for.

The thing is though, Pac (and Cotto for that matter) have done two simple things that americans love. 1) They have a fighting style that appeals to the eye (not saying Floyd doesn't. I love the way he breaks fighters down peice by peice)...

2) They learned english (or at least attempted. Most fighters from other countries don't even bother) ...

I don't even care what Floyd said on the radio show, I just think that statement you made was very shallow, and border line offensive. Just cause Floyd doesn't feel loved in america, doesn't mean we americans lack patriotism.

I'd love to meet your friends. I just don't see any Americans supporting an American fighter by default.

Nonito is an American and did some growing up here. He's "well behaved" and "entertaining". I can't recall any American flags being waved in the audience for him.

& you still dont get it.

You just don't want to see it.
