So there you have it:
This is not the contract of someone that wants to meet in the ring.

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
What the hell are they planning to gain from this?
People that are suspicious of him are not going to have that doubt removed even if he wins in court.
So his public image isn't repaired
The court preperations and case make it impossible for the fight to still happen.
He is going to miss the opportunity of a lifetime payday
It looks like the max money he can make in court $75,000 per head at five people is what? $375K plus court fees.
What's $40 million - $500k = how much money he lost doing this.
It gives the sport of boxing a black eye
Yes all those casual fans and boxing haters can say "Yeah in boxing they don't even fight in the ring anymore, they fight in court."

wow this really is disappointing.
fight's dead.
I'm still waiting for this to be spun against Mayweather, you know it's coming.

It's pretty well impossible to defend Pacquiao's actions as a fan of the sport foremost... A Law suit, really? This drug test stipulation went from having the potential to set a GREAT precident for boxing, to a god awful one. How in the hell is Manny expecting to win this case? So what Mayweather went on record accusing Pacquiao of steroids, it's boxing for christs sake, there are so many examples of atrocious deflamation of character throughout the sport it's not even worth mentioning. This is absolutely a lose-lose for Pacquiao, he stands to gain absolutely nothing in this case, even if he were to win it wouldn't validate his being drug free in the slightest, the fact that he is taking legal action in the first place rather than agree to blood testing is the closest thing to confessing his guilt as far as I'm concerned.
I don't think it's possible to spin it. I was one of Mayweathers biggest critics, but there is just no way to get on his case over this carry on. A request for absolute fairness in a fight is not something that can really be called into question, certainly not if you are a person of principles and with the knowledge that there are serious loopholes. Manny's sacrifice of the payday of a lifetime because he won't take a random test, is just incredible. And to try and sue everyone over it? Pac's team have become increasingly difficult to deal with in negotiations over time. But in this instance they have truly lost the plot.
All of Manny's supporters need to take a cold, hard look at the situation and see it for what it is. Manny Pac refuses the fight we all want to see because he isn't willing to provide random checks. No other opponent should really fight him either, unless he is willing to provide the tests for them. If that means Manny has to retire, then so be it. I have no interest in seeing him fight again the way things stand. His reputation has taken a serious hit. Manny might make a pretty good politician judging by his recent behaviour. He is able to smile for the cameras and say its all down to god, but when it comes down to the serious questions he is simply unable to back it up. All it takes is a little bit of blood.
I hope he enjoys his adventure in the courtrooms. After all that's obviously the way to solve everything.![]()
I thought eventually Manny Pac would agree, but now?
Where the hell are the Pac nuthuggers to defend this bullshit?
Mayorga told ODLH he was going to fuck his wife and that didn't even end up in court.
This is starting to fall in lock-step with what generalulldog was saying.
Clemens files defamation lawsuit against ex-trainer McNamee - MLB - ESPN
"Clemens filed the suit Sunday night in Harris County District Court in Texas, listing 15 alleged statements McNamee made to the baseball drug investigator George Mitchell. Clemens claimed the statements were "untrue and defamatory.""
because
"Clemens' good reputation has been severely injured," the suit said. "McNamee's false allegations have also caused Clemens to suffer mental anguish, shame, public humiliation and embarrassment."
"the testing program we have set up in Major League Baseball is great," he said.

Here's the headlines at Philboxing

"HAPPY NEW YEAR TEAM MAYWEATHER, NOW ENJOY TODDLING IN YOUR OWN MUCK"
I mean seriously here is their equivalent to this thread.

Other than Mike Leach, I didn't think it was possible for someone to fukk up their own career as badly as Manny seems to be doing now.
I am in disgust with Pac and his team. He is going to court in attempt to clear his name instead of what best clears your name, random blood tests. Laughable, yet sad, overly suspicious, and losing creditbility by the day. He should've just got off the PEDs for this fight, probably lose, but have his name and legacy intact and the public fool.
