I'm just pointing out the fact that all you hear about is the offer of money, but you never hear about the offer of Manny taking random testing.

he had a $22 million gaurantee plus whatever the PPV sales were so around $30-$35 million somewhere around there.

He got an offer of $50 million guarantee plus whatever the PPV sales would be against pacquiao.


i dont know how anyone says NO to 50 Mil+....


as a floyd fan im starting to think he doesn't want the fight....

I think staying undefeated is more important to Floyd than $50 or $100 million. I think he wanted the fight at one time (he just wants the playing field to be even).

If it's one of us, we're fighting, rather Pacquiao accepts a drug test or not. The point is, Floyd already got money. So I think staying undefeated is more important and he doesn't want to put that at risk with a fighter that could "possibly" be doping.

From Forbes
Money" Mayweather returned to the boxing ring last year after a 21-month hiatus.
Mayweather earned $25 million in his comeback bout in September against Juan Manuel Marquez. He earned an even bigger payday—$40 million—for his 36 minutes of work against "Sugar" Shane Mosley this May. The Mosley fight generated 1.4 million pay-per-view buys, making it the second most lucrative non-heavyweight fight after Mayweather's 2007 win over Oscar De La Hoya.

Manny may have been doping, we will never know because he didnt want to test...

We do know that he confident enough to take random testing now, so that tells me if he has roided up in his past fights, he may not be doing it anymore...

what world are you living in? $50+ million, with the tests, 8oz gloves, 147 pounds, etc etc etc. biggest fight ever. Still not good enough.

I would fight 14 Gorillas and 4 alligators for $50 million!
That's because we don't already have $50 million.

I'd fight 14 gorillas but I wouldn't fight 4 alligators (blood test or not) Lol

I don't understand why it's even a question. Mayweather has never flip-floped on the issue. If Manny agrees to the random testing then there will be a fight period. That demand hasn't changed. Take the test and the fight is on. Manny has never agreed to testing and for all the people claiming he has I want to see proof.

lol @ blaming the water. It was the rope-a-dope that did him in and Foreman always says to this day he was the dope. In otherwords he fell for Ali's strategy, throwing haymakers and wasting his energy until Ali felt he was winded and the rest is history.



IMO the very fact that floyd is demanding these tests means he's scared of losing. He claims he's the greatest of all time and he can beat pacquiao easily, he says pac has been KO'd and he fights like an amateur. He says he'll make easy work of Pacquiao. Pac isn't even a natural welterweight and floyd says he's a midget. And yet he wont fight unless it's under his conditions? Something isn't right there with flloyd, he lacks confidence. And that was proven imo when pac agreed to the tests and floyd still wont fight. What else more you want?

This is the same guy who changed his nickname to "Money" and yet the biggest purse in boxing history he wont take. It's mind boggling.

But floyd is a part time fighter, like Oscar was, he's turned into a celebrity chaser hanging out with all the big stars rubbing elbows, spending money, enjoying the good life. He doesn't care about boxing anymore. He's been removed from the pound 4 pound lists, he's not going to be rated at welterweight by any sanctioning body (on May 1st), he's not in boxing atm.

Like I said it's sad, because he's a great fighter, but clearly he doesn't give a fuck anymore about boxing.
Bottom line is Floyd ain't puttin' it on line unless he's sure Pacquiao ain't on no kind of PED's.

I think thats true, because i recently read an interview where floyd said if manny takes the test we have a fight....

ok so if he made $40 million, him making $50 million guaranteed against pacquiao (meaning that's the minimum amount he could make, not including PPV split) quite obviously isn't a paycut now is it?

Also shane only made $7 million in that fight total, that was like 80/20 split or some shit that's also the reason floyd made so much in that fight against shane.

lol pacquiao has been doing drug tests though. He's passed them all. You can say that about any fighter, as there have been only TWO fighters in the history of boxing who have done the olympic style drug testing in shane & floyd. Two. And one of them was on PEDs before.

If you want to use that logic you could even say that Floyd could have been on PED's since he wasn't drug tested year round. He was only drug tested during the mosley training camp. Who knows what he does in the 1-2 years he isn't fighting.


Bottom line is Floyd ain't puttin' it on line unless he's sure Pacquiao ain't on no kind of PED's.
and pacquiao agree to testing sooooooooooooo what's the problem now?

Would it be possible to raise $50 mil so that we can throw 206 in a cage with 14 gorillas a 4 alligators. Anybody?
