    If Mayweather doesn't fight Pacquiao then he definitely hurts his own legacy, whatever problem PBF has with Pacman it didn't bother Marquez, DLH, Cotto, Hatton, Margo or Mosley?

    The challenge is there for PBF, i'm not buying his excuses not to fight him, if Pacman is doing something untoward then why has he not been caught, stripped of titles and banned from boxing? Athletes, swimmers, cyclists get caught all the time, what is PBF's real problem? I'd say it's more like inactivity and a real fear of losing that 0 more than anything else!

    I think PBF believes he can't beat him.

    Because boxing only does urine testing which detects fuck all.

    Those are sports that have out of competition random blood testing and that's why those people get caught.

    You're entitled to your opinion. Maybe your right. It doesn't change the fact that that fight ain't happening.

    It will be the one thing that shadows his otherwise brilliant career.

    The urine tests haven't bothered anybody else since Pacquiao turned pro 15 years ago and 58 fights later, my opinion is just that... until Floyd proves otherwise. There is more to this than just a piss test and what Floyd thinks Manny Pacquaio is doing. Boxing really needs this fight, in fact it needs two fights at least, but i doubt we will see it.

    And mosley wasn't bothered about doing a random blood test. Clean athletes don't care. But none of that matters because when all's said and done the fight's not happening.

    I agree boxing maybe does need this fight. It would be HUGE. But it's not going to happen, as fans I think we all need to move on and away from it.

    I don't care anymore, clearly there is a lot more to boxing than one man. And if he doesn't want to take part for whatever reason then that is his call. No big deal.

    I really don't believe if it did happen, Pac vs FBF, would be all that great. Everyone seems to think this would be the next fight of the century, but I don't believe it would be much above average, or even close to being FOTY material.

    I seriously don't get why Duckweather gets as much attention or big money offers as he does, to me he's just a boring/brainless/semi-literate clown.

    if floyd is going to insist on random testing up to the day of the fight i also don't think the fight is ever going to happen. pacquiao had categorically stated he's willing to take the test but just not too close to the fight. really, if they can agree on maybe a 7 day cut-off and i've seen in some freddy roach and pac interviews where they're saying that they're willing to do it, so i don't see any reason why floyd would insist on what he wants. i mean what kind of juicing can you do in one week? and they would have another test immediately after the fight. as much as i would like clean fighters competing, i also don't want pacquiao offering the excuse that the blood test weakened him in case floyd beats him coz it happened before in the first morales fight. but then it doesn't matter who's to blame coz ultimately all boxing fans are the ones who's going to lose out if the fight doesn't happen.
