How is he ducking the fight he just wants Pacquio to take a drug test before the fight and both of them will take it. Don't see how he is ducking a fight he just wants to make sure the shits legit.

Fuck out of here...He's a first ballot HOFER
Listen. I won't deny Floyd's status as an All Time great, but to put him in a category with guys like Sugar Ray Robinson, Ali, Henry Armstong, etc, is just totally wrong.. He's need to take a test, and until he fights his test (Pacman) I won't give him any credit as a legend. Even if he does beat him, he still never had to fight the wars Ali, and Robinson did, so he even still wouldn't be on that level. Yes he's a great fighter, yes he will be in the Hall of Fame (Boxing HOF is a joke, but he deserves it.)

He want's Pacquiao to take an Olympic style drug test.. They take drug tests regardless. Something that isn't normally asked of fighters. And I don't know if it's true but I heard Jim Rome say that Pacquiao and his trainer said they'd be okay with the Olympic Style testing to get the fight, but idk if that's true..

I heard Manny wants a cut off date within 14 days before the fight or some shit like that.

And no offense Danny but that post was stupid. How many fucking boxers have went through the shit Ali and Sugar Ray did? Don't worry I'll wait...Is Lennox Lewis any less of a HOFER because he didn't have to fight Joe Frazier?

Floyd has dominated the best weight class in boxing right and just one man stands in his way.

That Sergio fight was horrible. Barker had a good plan but was way too weak to even pose a threat. I'd like to see a stronger fighter than Barker try what he did on sergio by sort of fighting like Winky used to do.

Damn I saw some HBO stuff after the fight. Mayweather and Ortiz's women are hot as hell, obviously they would be with all that cash. But you dont always see that shit in the NBA....

you could say the same however, about pretty much anyone in any sport.
greatness should be judged by what the person did in the time which they played their respective sport, not by what others have done in the past and how they match up to them.

Looked like Marquez won to me or it was a draw, but boxing needs Mayweather/Pacman so I'm not surprised and it's not as marketable if Pacman is coming off a loss, even though it was really close.

I thought it was a draw. That was not a very good performance.
