The much-anticipated super-fight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jnr has taken a significant step closer after Pacquiao's promoter, Bob Arum, said his charge is willing to agree to random drug testing - but not by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA).
Negotiations have previously collapsed over the timing of sampling, with Pacquiao refusing to accept Mayweather's demands of Olympic-style probes right up until fight night.
But while Arum's revelation does fuel hopes of a bout materialising, the situation is clouded by Pacquiao's decision to file a defamation lawsuit against Mayweather, which has done nothing to quell the animosity between the camps.
"We have agreed in the Pacquiao camp to unlimited random testing done by a responsible, neutral organization," Arum told Yahoo. "We don't believe USADA is a neutral organization.
"I don't think anybody's test is as vigorous as the test administered by the Olympic Organization. And we can arrange for the Olympic Organization to handle the test under the supervision of the Athletic commission respective of the state where the fight is going to be held.
"We're not going to make this into a cowboy situation. We have an organization that has no authority [USADA] and even does it [blood testing] without reporting to an organization that is responsible for the conduct of the fight.
"We are focusing on Pacquiao v Marquez fight [on November 12]. And if Pacquiao beats Marquez again and then if Mayweather says he's agreeable to us, then we can have the Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight next year."

So Manny could get to Floyd before Khan does then :confused:
That could result in 2 defeats for Floyd in 1 year :o
Re: Pacquiao 'agrees to Mayweather's demands'
Are you having a fucking laugh?
Pac might beat Floyd... Khan doesn't have the experience or smarts yet. Nowhere near it.
Re: Pacquiao 'agrees to Mayweather's demands'

Want to sig bet again? ;D
This time you honor the lenght of the deal ;)
Re: Pacquiao 'agrees to Mayweather's demands'
IF floyd returns to the ring against Ortiz looking like the same floyd that beat Shane Moseley, Then neither pacroid or Khan stand a chance in hell. TBH I'd still bet on floyd if he had to fight them both in the same night.
The only chance either of them have is if floyd comes back looking old. But if that does happen then floyd would retire.
Floyd will only fight either man if he feels 100% and if he's 100% he destroys both. Easily.

If doing a 'sig bet' proves you're not a pussy then I really don't know what this world has come to... :vd:

Re: Pacquiao 'agrees to Mayweather's demands'
It would be nice if both of them just drop their current scheduled opponents and fight each other next before they change their mind.

We got time to discuss that fight. How about a month sig bet on the fight between Tomiko Kameda (who fights out of Mexico) and Pumar D. Singwancha? Singwancha is one of your kind. It's a good even fight between prospects. I know Pacquiao ain't the only
flip you got confidence in right? Don't be a little pussy and support your country man.
Haven't we already addressed that the above f-word is a racial slur?
Minor slip. Anyway the post was directed at Rains who said he doesn't have a problem with it. But since he's being a pussy right now he might all of a sudden have one now. Either way if little girls are gonna keep crying I'll keep it out
That fight is already over.
