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..

actually i think the best offer that manny has offered is random testing upto 21 days before the fight and straight after. that's a 21 day gap, and there's no excuse for manny not to take it. in fact i am not alone in having suspisions about him now, and he's probably my favourite current fighter.

its a fight that has to happen, its a genuine superfight. manny comes forward for 12 rounds, is as fast as mayweather and throws from all angles, and he's carried his power and chin up in weight - just look at the cotto fight.

mayweather is a defensive genius and great counter puncher, but pac will land fairly regularly. its a 50/50 fight and too much money for it not to happen eventually. i can't wait.
