Let’s Not Forget That The Mayweather Fight Didn’t Happen Because Pacquiao Didn’t Take The Test

So many of you biased Manny Pacquiao fans and Floyd Mayweather haters got short term memory. It seems they are always trying to put the blame on Floyd and not on the real person at fault.

Manny Pacquiao didn’t take the test and because he didn’t take the test the fight never materialized.

Floyd even gave Manny a cut-off date of like two weeks when he found out that Manny said he didn’t want to give blood too close to the fight and Pacquiao and Bob Arum still came up with excuses on why they didn’t want to do the Olympic style drug testing — for them two weeks was too close and Manny was either afraid of needles or felt that he would be weakened by the blood taking.

Think back and realize who the real duckers are. If Floyd Mayweather was really trying to DRAIN or WEAKEN Manny Pacquiao why would he compromise and say, “You know what? If you don’t want to take the blood the day before the fight or too close, I’ll negotiate a cut-off date of 14 or 7 days,” that’s because all Floyd wanted in the first place was a fair fight and to make sure both guys are not cheating since Floyd would be undergoing the same tests.

We still don’t know whats the deal from Team Pacquiao. One moment you have someone saying they agreed to the tests, then you have someone saying commission tests only, and then someone else saying Manny only agreed to a 14-day cut-off date.

Bob Arum is a very smart man, and deep in his heart he probably knows that Manny Pacquiao has no shot against the greatest boxer of our time, Floyd “Money” Mayweather. Bob Arum will continue to milk the cash cow and  line up washed up guys for Manny to fight and on the last fight of Manny Pacquiao’s contract with Top Rank, Bob Arum will finally allow him to lose to Floyd Mayweather Jr.

That’s my theory and it’s the only theory that makes sense.
