Why all the hatred for pretty boy? He is one of the best boxers of all time. If Manny would agree to the drug tests the fight would go forward. But he won't. He is obviously on something.

He has no class.  Brilliantly skilled boxer, and was pound-for-pound the best at his peak.

The bit about Pacquiao not agreeing to Mayweather's additional drug tests is inaccurate.  He did actually agree to doing them over a year ago.

From my limited knowledge I was under the impression he agreed to be tested once on a scheduled date 2 months before the fight. PBF wanted him to agree to take a random one but he wouldn't.

Manny has subsequently said he will submit to 14 day drug tests so PBF can't use that as an excuse and is probably why he doesn't try anymore.  Mayweather doesn't want the fight full stop.

Yeh I think he's running scared although I still maintain the fight would be close.

It says in the artcile I put up above that Manny agreed to random drug tests, but then he wanted it to be USA Olympics commitee drug tests which would mean he'd have to train in the US, why should he have to do that, Mayweather keeps changing the terms because he doesn't want the fight to happen. I agree it'd be a close fight, that's why everyone wants to see it, but would expect Manny to win.

Mayweather clearly doesn't want the fght. IIRC Manny said he would have testing as long as Maywather had exactly the same testing conditions, but Mayweather declined.
I think one of the reasons that he doesn't want to fight Manny is that Manny can't be intimidated, and will get round all the mayweather dirty tricks, such as the use of elbows etc.

It is all just mind games from the Mayweather camp trying to get any edge they can.

burns v katsidis and groves v smith at Wembley 5th of November.

Ward v Froch has been put back. Due to a Ward getting cut in training.

You think it will happen ? I don't but hope I'm wrong.

Interesting story with olympics...

Weird, didn't show in my new replies feed.

Don't think it will happen tbh, would love it obv, but Mayweather is shit scared.

hadn't seen that story, Boxing has always been corrupt, story is probs true tbh, but in no way willl we they bink a gold now.

Good related story about the actual practicallity of fixing a match. Pretty tough.

Bit late with this as I wanted to ensure I got on myself but think Gary Sykes is a big price at odds against this evening.  I have took as much 6/4 as I could get but 5/4 is fine.  I made him slight odds on.
