Mayweather wants Paquio drug tested - if you have nothing to hide pea in the fucking bottle and fight.
too much money for Mayweather and Paquio not to happen but I see Paquio is running for mayor of the Phillipines - i guess that should only take a day a week to take care of that job so he still will have time for training.

if you are such a big fan of boxing then you should know that it's mayweather that doesn't want to fight manny.
the issue is not drug testing. the issue with manny is that he doesnt want blood drawn on the day of the fight. he has said that he has no problem with a blood test right after the fight. he also has no problem with any of the random testing during training camp.
floyd knows that manny will be his toughest fight and manny is about the only one right now that has equal or better speed than floyd.
floyd is just using the testing as an excuse..
its a shame because it would be a great fight and it needs to happen while they are both in their prime...
ps.. boxing sucks anway.... its nothing like it used to be when i was growing up..
