    This will prove whether Mayweather is a bitch or not. Manny gave in to demands cuz he knows the fight (and payout) is huge. Hopefully pretty boy quits playing his little games and accepts.

    This is old news.

    Floyd's trainer may being doing a few months in jail and Floyd may not fight without him.

    Pacquiao nut swinger coming out it seems
  • Hulk Smash
    Where have all the Mayweather sack-hangers ran off too?

    Pac agreed to everything and put the ball in Floyd's court.
    If he doesn't take the fight it means he just doesn't want any part of Pacquiao.
    The date can be moved if his trainer is serving time, the network and venue will both bend over backwards for this fight.

    You know, you could just reverse this and say why didnt he just agree to it the first time, but no no no. Its all Mayweathers fault lol. Pac Man fans are sad.

    Only if you want to look like a dumb shit.
    He didn't agree the first time because he had an issue with Floyd wanting to make up his own rules AND change them when Manny did agree.

    Now they just conceded to rules being different for this fight than any other fight on the planet and forced his hand.

    Aaaand here we go, what rules did he make up? Also, you do know Mayweather agreed to ALL of Mannys demands right? Im hardly a Mayweather fan, but the shit I hear from people who only try and discredit him is laughably retarded.

    GO ahead, ill wait.

    What rules did he make up? Umm getting blood tested right before the fight maybe? I'm not a fan of either of them really, other than thinking Mayweather is a cocky bitch, which he has proved again.

    “I don’t see it happening,” Sugar told the Examiner earlier tonight in regards to a pontential Pacquiao-Mayweather clash. “At least not this year. I don’t and never did.”

    People seem to be split as to Floyd’s exact motivations behind his reluctance to sign. Some feel as though he is simply biding his time to milk the public’s interest while others genuinely think he is concerned about having to face a fighter of Pacquiao’s caliber. Sugar’s opinion seems to be that the fighter has grown comfortable with his undefeated status and is still soaking in the aftermath of his victory over Shane Mosley this past May.

    “I think he’s got enough money,” Sugar said. “He doesn’t want to fight right now. He’s not afraid of Pacquiao. He might be afraid of losing. If you ever talk to him he will tell you in eight seconds or less that he’s the greatest fighter ever because he’s never lost and he has a chance here of losing.”

    In agreeing to Mayweather’s demands for Olympic style drug testing, Pacquiao has seemed to call Floyd’s bluff in many ways. When the initial talks between the two sides dissolved earlier this year that was the one hold up that stood out and Sugar thinks that Floyd has pinned himself in a corner for the moment.

    “The first time around with the Olympic style blood testing, really that was a cover for money,” Sugar claimed. “He wants the lion’s share of the purse and that’s not going to happen. In fact there are already movements for November 13th for Pacquiao to fight somebody else if they don’t hear from him by the end of this week.”

    Those are the GOAT Bert Sugar's comments on the fight and why it most likely won't happen. Can't say I don't disagree with his reasoning.

    Well it is Saturday and it appears he didn't sign. What a douche. You can't be the GOAT if you run from the best competition.

    Ender Wiggin;
    Quit playing stupid, you know damn well Floyd wanted to make up his own drug-testing rules, Manny initially agreed to the terms then Floyd changed them and kept at it until he killed the fight.

    Floyd had NEVER made such a demand for any other opponent and when the fight fell through he was not making the same demands for any other opponent until AFTER he was ripped by the boxing media.

    Floyd pulled the same type of stunt with Winky Wright a few years back when he wanted weigh-in rules changed for the fight.

    Prediction:
    Manny goes on to fight whomever on Nov 13th, contracts will be signed by early next month.

    Floyd's uncle gets no jail time this fall so he decides to fight again this year, he fights in early December.

    Floyd/Manny circus starts again with the same result it had the first two times with Pac's political responsibilities being the problem next time.

    According to Mayweather's camp, no talks ever took place....

    Money didn't agree I take it? He's a bitch in my book. Give the fans what they want!
  • Ender Wiggin
    Hulk, Mayweathers camp never changed the parameters of the drug testing, it was always the same length of time, so youre wrong. And he was hardly ripped by the boxing media, youre making shit up now, more people questioned Manny after the whole thing not Floyd. And Mosely took the fight with the same demands, and before you try and talk shit about Mosely, Manny and Roach said they wanted nothing to do with Mosely.

    Gimme a fucking break, Mayweather let Manny pic every single other thing other than the testing.

    You haters/nuthuggers are ridiculous. And this is from someone who couldnt care less about either.

    So if you don't care why do you keep seeking out this thread?

    Don't bother answering, I believe you.

    I want the fight to happen but am starting to believe it will not.

    When it fell through the first time I thought it was just Golden Boy and Top Rank putting it off so they could make money from other fights while building up Pac/Floyd for later this year.
    After the success of Pac/Clottey and Mayweather/Mosley, I was sure they would fight later this year but not now. Not after it has fallen through again.
    These two can make big money fighting anybody, they simply do not need each other.
    Pac/May won't happen until there is nobody else to fight and since their weight range is loaded with good boxers that isn't going to happen anytime soon.
