    Shame he couldn’t beat him in the ring.

    Sorry..had to be said..again and again and again.
    Shame the fight did not happen 5 years earlier.
    Indeed, Floyd with his legs wins every round instead of 10 rounds. Manny was never remotely smart enough to beat Floyd. That’s why Manny backed out of the agreement. Always remember, they agreed, Manny backed out of the agreement
    Negotiations with Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    Following the victory against Cotto, there was much public demand for a fight between Pacquiao (the number-one pound-for-pound boxer) and the five-division world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (the number-two and former number-one pound-for-pound boxer). Pacquiao reportedly agreed to fight Mayweather on March 13, 2010, for a split of $50 million up front[87] and it was later agreed that the venue for the fight would be the MGM Grand Garden Arena. However, the bout was put in jeopardy due to disagreements about Olympic-style drug testing. The Mayweather camp wanted random blood testing by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA),[88] whereas Pacquiao refused to have any blood testing within 30 days from the fight, because he thought it would weaken him, but he was willing to have blood taken from him before the 30-day window as well as immediately after the fight.[89] Freddie Roach, on the other hand, commented that he would not allow blood to be taken from Pacquiao one week before the fight.[90][91] In an attempt to resolve their differences, the two camps went through a process of mediation before a retired judge. After the mediation process Mayweather agreed to a 14-day no blood testing window. However, Pacquiao refused and instead only agreed to a 24-day no blood testing window.[92] Consequently, on January 6, 2010, Pacquiao's promoter Bob Arum declared that the fight was officially off.[93]

    Because of Pacquiao's reluctance to submit to random blood testing to the extent requested by Mayweather, despite lack of evidence, the Mayweather camp repeated their suggestion that Pacquiao was using banned substances, which resulted in Pacquiao filing a lawsuit for defamation, seeking damages in excess of $75,000.[94] The lawsuit cited accusations made by Floyd Mayweather Jr., Floyd Mayweather Sr., Roger Mayweather, Oscar De La Hoya and Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer.[95][96]

    After negotiations for the Mayweather fight fell through, other boxers were considered to replace Mayweather as Pacquiao's next opponent, including former light welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi[97] and WBA light middleweight title holder Yuri Foreman.[98] However, Pacquiao chose to fight former IBF welterweight title holder Joshua Clottey instead.

    The blood testing was in the original contract that he agreed to. But make all the excuses you like. Doesn’t change that they are just that, excuses

    Shadowboxing used to provide a beautiful video of Roach saying they agreed to testing, that it was Floyd’s attempt to get out of the fight. Spliced with Arum saying they agreed to testing but Manny shouldn’t have agreed to it. It was hilarious to watch it then see they pulled out over testing they had already agreed to hahaha. And people said Floyd did it to get out of the fight, that makes no sense since the FIGHT WAS ON WITH IT

    But if lying to yourself helps you sleep at night, do you

    I am just quoted the link, so long ago I do not remember the in's and out's. Either way that was when the fight should have happened and it did not. Shame.
