    Floyd is perfectly within his rights to make demands while negotiating the terms of a fight.
    Every fighter is allowed to do this. If the opponents don't reach an agreement then there should be no fight.
    It's quite simple.
    It's not a double standard.
    Floyd isn't getting away with anything. He's simply stating that the condition for him to fight Pacquiao was for there to be random testing.

    How can you disagree with that @mikeeod @walrus ? Where's the controversy?

    You two vaginas have no response to this so you just gonna avoid answering...?

    I think we both stated our case. None of us were at the table when these negotiations took place so I often wonder about the accuracy of some of the statements that are repeated. Believe it or not I can see your point of view, I still think I am right but I would not call you an idiot for your statements as they are not coming out of left field. We are all in the dark as both sides have reported different things and hundreds of commentators have spouted different ideas. We have to go with our gut, sound fair?

    I'm glad you agree with me.

    No matter how much money Floyd makes he will forever be asked why he did not fight Manny. He will take that question until he dies.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Floyd will answer that he gave Manny every opportunity to take the fight with the one provision that Manny be clean for their fight and prove it by being tested for drugs in advance of the fight.

    The real question is why Manny turned down $50 million if he was a clean fighter.

    Does not matter about the answer. The fact is they never fought and that is what people will remember.
