    I would like to hope Manny isn't on anything and I believe still that he would wipe the floor with May. But, it is weird with so much money being offered, why the fighters are loafting so hard.

    This is all just psychological games.

    Basically, Mayweather's camp is just trying to air out that Pacquiao is taking steroids. It's all just a shameless ploy to piss off Pacquiao and further try to tarnish his legacy. Why would Mayweather ask of this? In effect, he's just saying 'why won't you take these tests, so you MUST be taking drugs?"

    Pacquiao's camp is simply saying, "why should I? I've never failed a drug test, and have GLADLY taken all of the boxing regulatory tests, and funny enough, these are the same ones you take all the time, not that olympic crap (which btw, is more flawed than the boxing ones) you've proposed for the first time. This is just defamation.

    I'm not the biggest Pacman fan, but at this point, Mayweather is looking like a cowardess.

    I agree with Pacquiao, though. He's never failed a drug test, Mayweather shouldn't be able to request a different style of testing for this fight.

    Barry Bonds never failed a drug test, either.

    Not getting caught doesn't make some one innocent, it just means they haven't been caught. I don't know about you, but if all that stands between me and tens of millions of dollars is a couple blood tests, and I know I'm clean, then I'll take them shits. When the results come in, I'll have a nice "haha fuck you" and a middle finger for all those who doubted me.

    He agreed to testing, just not on the dates Mayweather's camped picked.

    I have no issue with the testing, I just think its complete bull shit Mayweather's camp think they can pick the dates. If they both agree to testing, they should let the Olympic committee pick the dates.

    I don't think Mayweather wants to pick the dates, he just wants them to be random and all the way up to the week of the fight. Manny wants to know when he'll be tested, so he can make sure he's clean. And he doesn't want to be tested in the weeks leading up to the fight, because he would fail.

    I thought May wanted Manny tested 4 days before the fight.

    Plus, don't they get tested in the locker room?

    I'm pretty sure all they take are piss tests.

    Yeah tthat is all they take.

    Hm, I remember reading that Paq would take a blood test in the locker room after the fight.

    I think it is shady that Paq won't blood test, but I think it is weird that Mayweather wants these tests all of a sudden. I hope they can agree to a testing schedule so this shit can happen.

    Re: Floyd Mayweather (40-0) vs. Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2) [May-09]

    Mayweather's camp has softened up a little on the testing requirements so now the bout seems back on.

    Re: Floyd Mayweather (40-0) vs. Manny Pacquiao (50-3-2) [May-09]

    they're leaving waaaaaay too much money on the table to call it off. Im sure a lot of people know this fight was never really 'called off' to begin with.

    Like I said, great promotion of the fight. Hype.

    They need to both take the tests at the same time, then no one can complain.

    That is what Mayweather wants. Manny is too scared though.
