Pacquiao vs. Clottey confirmed today?

[Howlin Mad Missy]

Wow. Amazing how quickly things change. Here were some of us thinking this whole back and forth between Pac and Floyd was a publicity stunt...but that eventually the fight would get signed. I have to say...even though Floyd is no angel...Pac and his team have lost all credibility after this debacle. Fair or not...the PED question will linger over Pac for the rest of his career. If i was a fighter under any sort of suspicion...and had nothing to hide...i would allow the most advanced test to be administered (muscle biopsy being the highest on the list). The negative results would shut up all the doubters. But unfortunately...PED's are a modern reality. Thorough and advanced testing would reveal how deep the problem is. And that would not only be a major embarrassment to the athletes...but to their sports organizing bodies, to their sponsors, etc. The current system is a complete joke...and guys like Pac are particularly bad at their public relations.

Once Team Pac wins the lawsuit, the general public will forget all about it though

Yeah! Just like OJ!

Plus Pacquiao further proved my point with his claims that the bout should be at 144, if it goes on as scheduled Clottey will fit Manny's requirements of being an acceptable opponent, in other words completely weight drained

Pacquiao will school Clottey all 12 rounds to a Dominant UD. Anyone who thinks Clottey wins this is just bitter about the drug test bull crap and its just wishful thinking to think Clottey wins this.

no one is saying that Clottey will win, he's gonna be weight drained (seeing how Manny wants it to be at 144), so obviously Pacquiao is gonna win, everyone is just simply stating how big of a bitch Pacquiao is for pussying out of the Mayweather fight and for basically giving the clear impression that he's a fraud and a cheater

Konz is the idiot that opened his mouth just like in the past. He still hasn't learned his boundaries. The fight will be at 147 as announced by Arum and confirmed by Roach.

There should be a new weight division called. It should be called "Mannyweight".

Mannyweight is when a superstar boxer dictate these terms to weight drain opponents. Sugar Ray Leonard (Lalonde) started it in the 80s, De La Hoya in the 2000s (Hopkins), now Manny is carrying on the tradition of being a b-itch.
