    He's scared. It's my opinion, you're not changing that. Mayweather is singing a different tune and that's not an opinion, that's fact.
    All the Mayweather fans are just laughing hysterically. They can't believe that their favorite boxer is actually a coward like everyone called all along.

      So as I figured, Roger's assualt thing is something that happened last year. How very convenient that Manny is superstitous of testing close to the fight, scared of needles, gets weak from blood, etc. during the original negotiations but manages to finally get over all his fears just a month or two before Roger's trial. Of course, Manny and Roach would never look for an advantage like fighting a fighter without their trainer or anything like that.

      I'm not saying Floyd is free of critiscm here if it's something else...but let's find out exactly what's going on and not try to paint it all on one person as being a coward and yadda yadda cause an argument can be made for both ducking each other with the way this thing has played out.

        I dont care anymore, I just find it amusing that I came in here and we are still talking about the same thing...its like we are playing "see-saw" months ago it was Pac man who had a "excuse" when he was running for office, now its back on PBF...

          I can agree with this.
          I'd just like to hear more from Mayweather besides he's 'on vacation'.

          I'm just so sick and tired of all of this.
          If anyone needs a reason as to why boxing is struggling today, it's because of junk like this.
          I have a hard time believing that if Pac wasn't promoted by DLH, this wouldn't have been done already.

            Re: Pacquio Agrees to Mayweathers Blood Testing Demands

            i'm getting tired of defending Floyd. If he wants to sit there and say he wants to fight Pacquiao well then now he needs to back it up.

            If his reasoning is really because of the uncertainty of the Roger court case then thats understandable and at least say that instead of i'm on vacation and i'm not thinking about boxing right now. I also didnt like the whole deadline thing with a countdown because i knew no matter what Floyd wasnt answering to someone's deadline, that just isnt him. But if its really because of the Roger thing then he should say right now we're just focused on getting Roger through this situation and we'll move forward once we have some resolve in that."

            But if Roger does go to jail then i dont want to hear about him not wanting to fight without Roger because at this point he should be able to fight without him. I understand Floyd doesnt watch tape and he lets Roger do that and come up with the gameplan but enough is enough, just fight the guy already and stop all this song and dance.

              Exactly. I think Floyd's got blame here, but it's also pretty convenient that Pac has waited forever to finally agree...

              Either way, I just want the damn fight. This is the only fight that makes boxing relevant right now...otherwise there's just a bunch of names that no one outside of huge boxing fans knows. Honestly, I have no f'ing idea who the HW champ is right now, but in the past everyone knew who was champ...

                the heavyweight division sucks thats why. Its the Klitsckos and no one else basically and since they wont fight each other, its not worth watching. Besides, heavyweights are boring. They are slow, they clinch too much and they are just no fun to watch. The welterweights and around that weight to about super middleweight are good because they are athletic. I love boxing so i know a lot of the people around right now but even for someone like me that loves boxing theres really only 1 fight worth watching and thats Pacman-Money.

                  Re: Pacquio Agrees to Mayweathers Blood Testing Demands

                  I hate to say it again but this fight will never, ever, ever happen. These two do not want to fight each other. If it isn't demands then it's excuses.

                  That being said, while Arum and Team Pacquiao have moved on to consider other options, they said that despite missing the ultimatum, they are willing to fight Floyd whenever he is ready. Think I read it on ESPN... too lazy to find the quote.

                    Re: Pacquio Agrees to Mayweathers Blood Testing Demands

                    For the life of me, I can't figure out why Arum seems so intent on making Pacquiao v. Cotto II....ummm WHY?!?!? We've already seen it and there's nothing to suggest that the second fight would go down any different. It's a complete and utter waste.

                    I guess they could drum up some interest in a fight with Margarito but that really doesn't seem all at intriguing either.

                    If he isn't going to fight Floyd, I'd just prefer to see him fight Berto...screw it.

                    To me this comes off as Floyd not expecting Pac to ever agree to his demands and now that he has, it's left Floyd scrambling. I'm not saying he's scared or doesn't want the fight or anything like that, I just think he believed it wouldn't happen so now he has to think long and hard about whether he wants the fight or not.

                    I'm holding out hope because there isn't one good reason in the world why this fight shouldn't happen...and that's probably exactly why it won't happen.

                    This is the beyond aggravating aspect of boxing...wish it were different.

                      Re: Pacquio Agrees to Mayweathers Blood Testing Demands

                      Yeah, I've got nothing left to say on this topic...I thought before it might really be about the testing, and now I just have no idea what's going on. Maybe Mayweather really doesn't want to fight Pac, who knows? Maybe there's something else going on behind the scenes. Either way, I've lost interest unless they agree to a fight.

                      No other fight right now is particularly compelling...They can't find (and neither should they) a catch-weight fight against Paul Williams like I heard vague rumors of, and anyway Williams should be more concerned about a re-match with Sergio Martinez than any other fight. Just like there isn't another fight at 147 other than Pacman-Money, at 160 the only fight (now that Pavlik seems out of the picture) is Martinez-Williams. Of course, there are always fights coming out of nowhere that end up being great, but as far as anticipating a bout, it's pretty bleak out there right now...

                          We all can just assume that Pac is just fed up w/ all this nonsense which has gone too far than expected and decided to just submit to the demands to give the fans the fight they want, because I can imagine this is becoming very frustrating for both Team Pacquiao and Team Mayweather.

                          As for the trial, I'm very sure there is a way to work the fight around it. Cant Sr train Jr again anyway?

                            Oh how the plot thickens *sarcasm ends here*

                            http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/box...ory?id=5393522

                            This is why boxing is ruined on all levels. It's not like the golden days of boxing anymore. Everyone was a headhunter. It wasn't about picking and choosing strategically who would give you an advantage. It wasn't about he said, she said crap. It was about fight the best talent and the best talent you haven't beaten yet.

                            I agree with someone on ESPN that said, let the boxers worry about fighting each other and let one governing body (see Dana White) figure out the payouts. This is how MMA fans get the fights they want and why MMA is flourishing over boxing right now.

                            All you Mayweather fans say that Floyd shouldn't give into to Pacquiao's demands, however, it goes two ways. Why should Pacquiao have given into his demands?

                            Negotiations? Seriously? The terms have been negotiated by Mayweather himself. Take the blood tests or no fight. That's as clear cut as it gets. I don't know where Floyd comes from, but down here, if someone calls you out to fight, you fight.

                              You are right. It was like a special reservation for only Floyd. It's like letting the 1-2 year olds hunt for eggs first at Easter. Now its an open invitation to anyone out there.

                              It may be a move on Arum's part to make it seem like it's on Mayweather to make this fight happen.

                                and a move by Arum to make it seem like its Floyds fault so people are still willing to pay for Manny to fight Cotto again or Margarito, 2 fights that people really dont care much about.

                                People bash Floyd but look at the person Manny has speaking for him, Bob Arum, the biggest liar there is in boxing. So thats the thing about this that is annoying. You got Arum who is the biggest liar and then Floyd's camp who never let anyone know what theyre thinking or planning to do. So in one corner we have people being secretive and in the other we got someone who lies everytime he opens his mouth.

                                Promoters are the reason boxing is becomming an after thought to many.
