Manny Pacquiao appeared to soften his stance about blood testing, saying he would be willing to undergo testing 14 days before a fight if it helps set up a showdown with Floyd Mayweather Jr., ESPN reported Monday.

Turns out this was a myth and Pac never said that

And for Mayweather/Pacquiao (if it happens). I dunno what to think. Really I think it can go either way. Everytime I watch Pacquiao...I get worried that he is in there with someone too big who might drop him...and then he crushes them. So if De La Hoya or Cotto couldnt stop him (who are much harder punchers then Floyd), I dont see how Floyd will KO him. The key will be for Pacquiao to punch in combinations. Thats the mistake Mosley made. You cant go for the one punch KO with Floyd. Plus, when you punch only once at a time it makes it too easy for him to counter. I say Pacquiao by decision.

I think Floyd can handle those combinations, if Pac can even throw them at Floyd. Every fighter seems to stop doing what's working for them against Mayweather in the early rounds. It's no coincidence, Floyd adjusts. Every boxer has lowered their workrate dramatically against Floyd, except for the first Castillo fight. That shows you that Floyd makes the opponent think twice about going after him. I know Mayweather has no punching power, but De La Hoya or Cotto do not have the accuracy Floyd has. I don't care how weak it is, if you keep on getting hit by solid shot after solid shot while getting tired from missing...it could be over sooner than the 12th round.

As far as Floyd. I kinda respect him not fighting for Shanes belt I guess. I think a lot of those within boxing do too. I dunno about the fee. Basically when you fight for the title and win, the WBA would have received a percentage of his fight money. I believe its substantial too...like 2 or 3 % which with what Floyd earned off this fight would probably have been like $300,000. He said the belt would just "collect dust"...so he didnt wanna pay them

Also I Read he promised his mother only 1 more fight after Cotto (Clottey), and now she wants him to retire? lol.. He's gonna have to exercise some grown-man authority cuz he can't retire now!
