Re: Floyds latest interview "I AGREED TO EVERYTHING...I SIGNED MY END OF THE BARGAIN"
Mayweather is a fucking joke, we know the first round of negotiations like what 2 years ago?? Pac didnt want the drug test, he has since agreed about a million times, stop living in the past and sign for the fight you shithouse or just retire.

Floyd does need to fight or publicly state reirement.

Re: Floyds latest interview "I AGREED TO EVERYTHING...I SIGNED MY END OF THE BARGAIN"
Does anyone give a fuck what he has to say? Even if I could be bothered to read it and it was cast iron proof that Manny was entirely at fault for them not fighting yet, I just couldnt give a shit.

Re: Floyds latest interview "I AGREED TO EVERYTHING...I SIGNED MY END OF THE BARGAIN"
Floyd will comeback in the condition that Sweet Pea did after his long layoff. He will just continue blowing money, not pay his taxes, until he is broke and the IRS comes after him.
I just don't understand what needs to happen for them to agree to a fight. I was so embarrassed for boxing this morning when I listened to NPR. They spoke about how sad it is that the two best boxers can't make it into the ring together. When, it tennis, football and other sports the best play the best multiple times a year. I guess this golden age of welterweights will be overshadowed by a missed opportunity to tune the world in on what I see as a 55/45 fight. A fight for the greatest ring tactician and the best boxer meeting to put an end to a lot of controversy. Truly as much of stylistic clash as could every be presented in a ring.
Also, SSM is such a bitch for not fighting back. I want my money back... Even more than I did after watching Floyd and Baldomir. If it wasn't for the Arce/Vasquez fight, I don't know if I would ever want to watch another fight again.

This fight will never happen, and we will be left wondering what could have been.

I can't believe this but you said something that I agree with.
Is the world coming to an end?

Re: Floyds latest interview "I AGREED TO EVERYTHING...I SIGNED MY END OF THE BARGAIN"
I watched the Floyd-Chico fight for the first time in several years last night and it saddened me. THAT Floyd was nothing short of magnificent. He fought smartly and with passion and skill and he had taken a daring fight. THAT guy had a chance to be one of the 10 most accomplished fighters who ever graced the sport in my estimation. Instead? He spent a decade fighting too little and too often not the optimal guys.
The saddest words remain what might have been.

Now this is freaky because I looked at this fight last night in bits and pieces. I remember the fight well enough though and thought to myself the same thing you probably did...."Where is this Floyd at now?" And what bothers me more is the fact that if this fight would have taken place when it was originally suppose to Floyd would not have been as much of an underdog vs Pac as he was vs Corrales. People forget that Corrales was quite the favorite in that fight due to the size advantages. And the longer Floyd waits and sits around being inactive the worst it is for him.

:confused:
Floyd was a 4/7 fav v Corrales never for one minute was he an underdog. He was a slight favourite to win.
He is also currently the slight favourite v Pac. ;)
Sorry edit that not 1/4 I mean to put 4/7 but he was a fav for this fight not the outsider.

Yeah u are right with the Corrales fight.... I stand corrected. I do remember alot of the experts being worried about the size disparity but you are right he wasn't the betting underdog. As for Pacquiao vs Mayweather I assumed that Pac would be the favorite because it seems that every article I read or radio interview I listen to seems to have some "expert" saying Pac is the favorite. Granted I don't follow boxing like I used to the fact that Mayweather is the favorite legitimately susprises me. BTW thanx for not being a douche about correcting me

Man I guess I wasn't paying attention to the oddmakers for that fight. I thought Chico's size would be a huge problem for Floyd and while I wasn't shocked Floyd won, the sheer dominance and majesty of that win shocked me at the time.
I also think Floyd is a pretty heavy favorite against Manny at this point. Of course since I had Manny losing to Diaz, Hatton, Oscar and Cotto, my oddsmaking can probably be ignored.

Re: Floyds latest interview "I AGREED TO EVERYTHING...I SIGNED MY END OF THE BARGAIN"
Pac won't take the test. This is why the Floyd camp is coming out with "Take The Test" t shirts. Once the pressure is finally put on Pac then the Pactards won't be able to use Floyd as a scapegoat and blame him or claim Manny agreed. Manny aint agree to shit.

The world's foremost expert on performance enhancing drugs,UCLA professor and researcher Dr. Donald Catlin, has supported Mayweather's position. Dr. Catlin is, essentially, the man who busted BALCO.
You can stop using HGH for one day, just one day, and you can be clean in any test. They can use EPO one day and then it can be gone by noontime the next day. All the drugs are different, all have different windows (for detection). All we can do is to keep upping the ante, making the tests more random and stronger.

He also claims that Pacquiao has switched from using steroids, to now using a complex mixture of HGH (human growth hormone) and insulin, a combination that is virtually undetectable in post fight drug tests.

HGH is now detectable. ;)

I don't think that is correct. WADA CLAIMS to have a functioning test which they used at, among other places the Beijing Olympics. Last time I checked they had tested 5-10,000 athletes and had ONE positive test. Now either 1) My facts are wrong 2) Nobody is actually using HGH or 3) the test doesn't work.
Pretty sure it is #3 :)

Re: Floyds latest interview "I AGREED TO EVERYTHING...I SIGNED MY END OF THE BARGAIN"
Well maybe you are correct in that the testing is not 100% bulletproof with the numbers getting caught but the tests are now advertising that they are testing for HGH.

NONE of the testing is remotely bulletproof. Any test that catches one in a thousand should be ridiculed. Of course what WADA is trying to do, since they can't catch people very often, is to dissuade by announcing they are now "testing" for new things.

Like Political Parties cant everyone just come together for the interest of the sport or does someone have an agenda by making any advanced testing from becoming enforced? Not accusing anyone of anything but why not want to have advanced tests? If it were Manny asking Floyd this would be no issue. Floyd aside....... Doesn't anyone want to clean the sport up? Or is it to much work and money or is it a bunch of people looking the other way?

The need to clean boxing up from the top to the bottom. Intensive testing should certainly be compulsory for all world title fights.
It is borderline criminal that boxing doesn't have a more rigourous testing procedure.
