Now I really doubt this fight will ever happen. No way Manny will settle for less than 50 percent. After the mosley fight there is no way Floyd will settle for anything but random tests. I think it will go down in boxing history that both Floyd and Manny priced themselves out of the fight. :-\
Floyd will not make it past Mosley.
No, I think Floyd thinks that that's the only way Mosley wins. I think Floyd is superconfident of outboxing Mosley but if Mosley does come up with a once in a lifetime punch Floyd wants an immediate rematch and doesn't want him running off to fight Pacneedle.Quote:

I see it as Mosley's way of winning is volume-punching because that will make it difficult for the judges to score. He is big enough that he should be able to get Floyd in range for his punches and although Floyd will undoubtedly make Mosley miss a lot, Mosley should be able to land some. And unlike in the Marquez and Hatton fights where Floyd made them miss and then hurt them, I don't see Floyd able to hurt Mosley. So as long as Mosley wins rounds by throwing more punches, he can keep the fight close and maybe steal a decision. Not that Mosley doesn't have the power to knock out Mayweather, but I can't remember the last time someone tested Mayweather's chin and don't feel comfortable saying he lacks one.Quote:

Mosley accepted the blood test procedures to clear his name out of accusations
Why can't Pac do the same specially after all his silly contradicting excuses for not taking a blood test? That just make him look even more suspicious.
Quote:
Manny asked 10million fine for each pound that goes beyond 147, yes, but that is simply to force Floyd to make the weight
Floyd is asking for a blood test that he is also willing to take to force Manny to train clean and also come clean on fight night. Both would take the test to make it fair FOR BOTH SIDES.

That was the stand of Pacman's camp on these drug test procedures. They will allow blood test or whatever tests if it will be required by the commission alone
Actually, that was one of the many excuses he said such as being afraid of needles (how did he get his tattoos?), he collapses after giving blood and it is unfair (Mayweather would take the very same tests, is that unfair?), can't be random tests that will totally distract him from training (Mayweather would do the same, so what? It's only a few minutes), saying they won't let Mayweather make the rules (all rules were made by Pac and his team and Mayweather agreed to all of them. Mayweather asks for only one: blood test, and hell breaks loose for Pac?), etc. etc. etc. Aaaaaall these silly contradicting excuses and one of them was that if its not part of the comission then it is a no no. Really raises an eyebrow. Is he hiding something? Mosley totally agreed with this and the fight is on.
Mayweather vs Mosley makes more sense as a competitive fight than Pac vs Clottey which seems more like a stepping stone for Pac.
Most of boxing fans including me, sees Floyd winning either by NSCA/ Commission rules.Quote:

IMO I think Floyd is not confident to win over a midget Pac or maybe even intimidated by Pac's previous wins.
There are still tons of posts on Pacs refusal to do olympic type drug testing. Here is an article on the 2010 Olympic drug testing and you can see how stringent it is, they don't mess around with cheaters and they have caught plenty already before the games even started, that is not posted in this article but all you have to do is google the 2010 olympic drug testing procedures to see how many have already been busted for doping, they go all out in keeping it clean and fair and all these athletes go through it. Was Pac scared of the needles and weakness from the tests or the results, all these world class athletes are doing these tests and their not making millions of dollars and they certainly do not look or act as though they were weakened by the tests and they are not saying it either.

The only way old man mosely wins is if floyd gets careless and slips on a puddle of the old mans blood.
One decent performance in 5 years and people think this fossil can beat the pound for pound best fighter on the planet? piss off!
Pac can pray mosely is gonna win but it ain't gonna happen.
Floyd will beat shane easily, and will then have all the cards at the negotiating table. Pac is screwed. i doubt floyd vs pac will happen to be honest.
