Golden Boy Sets Record Straight....

[mnmc10]

Those are pretty much the facts. It's the Manny camp that has different voices each shouting out contradictory statements which don't add up. One camp is patiently waiting to make the fight, whilst the other is running around like a headless chicken clucking all sorts of invalid excuses.

If Manny doesn't just agree to the random tests, then I fear his reputation will be permanently tarnished. All it takes is a few little needles at several points in camp. No professional sportsman on earth would turn his nose up at $40m over something so trivial.

I'm getting bored with this nonsense now, and I have to say that I am extremely dissapointed in Manny Pacquiao. After the Cotto fight I was impressed and finally able to warm to him, and then this debacle has set me right back to square one. I've been waiting it out, hoping that the Manny camp might begin to see the logic and good reasons for a test, but seemingly they aren't able to do that. I might even want Mayweather to beat the shit out of him after this....if they ever fight that is. Behind closed doors you get the distinct feeling that Manny isn't quite so humble or friendly. The fans want the fight, most think he should have the tests....and it is Manny Pacquiao who is denying the fight. Those too are cold harsh facts.

Pathetic.

go easy on him miles i already took you off my pac hater list. please dont go back to the darkside. he will deliver come fight night. this is all a hype and im sure the fight will go on.

Yeah, I've given it a number of days but it's still dragging on. I was hoping it would have been resolved by now. It's only about 10 weeks away from the provisional date of the fight. No way, this goes ahead on schedule.
