Yup....I am not blaming Manny, and agree with your assessment of how Big Mouth Floyd the Ego handled the whole thing. I am just disappointed that we may never see these two fight in their relative "primes".

+1 Brother....ridiculous that this fight has gone down yet!! They should have fought so long ago and now they probably won't fight and if they do they will be in wheelchairs racing down the hall!! What a joke

I believe, Pacquiao already said he would do a test the week of the fight, just not the night before.

I dont understand what you are saying. Does anyone know if these drugs are semi-instant? As in "the night before" type of instant.

One of the reported hang-ups to getting this fight to happen was: Mayweather claimed he wants Pacquiao to submit to a drug test the night before the fight, similar to the testing done throught out the Tour de France for blood doping or other PED's. Pacquiao won't agree to have blood drawn the night before the fight. Blood doping could be a 'night before' remedy, but I am not sure if it would be gone before the night after the fight, when both fighters are drug tested again by boxing's governing body where the fight was fought, I believe.

In my opinion, it is Mayweather's current out to avoid fighting Pacquiao for the time, until he can formulate another excuse. I think his first excuse was the split for the prize money.

I have no clue but congrats on your engagement. Ms. Callahan, I presume?

Manny looks awful shady for not participating in olympic style drug testing. No matter what his excuse.

Mayweather's a punk. I haven't paid for a PPV fight in years, but I'd pay just to see Pretty Boy Floyd get his ass kicked.

Those who know me know I am not a fan of Floyd Mayweather. That being said, he came to fight last night, did not run away, and soundly beat a good fighter.

But I still hope Manny knocks his block off.

I do appreciate Pretty Boy for calling out Arum as the reason the fight can't happen.

He was really trying to change public opinion about himself personally in the 2 post fight interviews.

Didn't change mine, he is just a manipulator and a self-absorbed doucherod.

He finally fought a fight I wasn't pissed for watching, but he is a complete ass. I think he realizes that the public isn't buying all his BS about why he won't fight Pacquiao any longer, but I am not ure where he is going with this recent change of attitude. In the end, he still probably comes up with a new excuse.

Eh, I'm not really excited to see the fight anymore. Pacquiao's last fight seemed like it had no heart in it. I'm thinking he's becoming more of a politician than a boxer. I also think that Mayweather is just looking to retire with a super big payout, win or lose. Winning would just be the icing on the cake.

I'm not a fan of Mayweather never have been but in this case I think Manny keeps dodgeing him, why not just take the blood test and fight.. if you got nothing to hide take the test. I'm sure there is a lot more going on but thats just my Opinion
