Right after is good enough IMO.

And Pacman's Camp sued Mayweather's for "tainting his name" by sayin' he's using steroids.

Basically he sued for 75k + punitive damages for name calling. LoL, kinda like me saying Nike sucks cuz they use 6yr old kids to make their shoes and i would be sued =P. Nike claims they dont use underage kids...

looks like this won't be happening anymore, many due to pacmans refusal for intense drug testing and mayweather saying pacman did PEDS which is crazy since it looks like each would get 40million for the fight!

Spite what most articles say out there, Pacman agreed to Olympic style testing last January in previous fights. Mayweather just wanted random Olympic style testing which ends up being an excuse to not fight. After the drama behind all that, Pacman agreed to the random, then Mayweather called the fight off admitting he never wanted to fight Pacman.

Pacman didnt want to do the testing during his month up to the fights as it would deter his progress and slow him down a few days as it will weaken him. He said 24 days out, after the weigh-ins, and after the fight. I guess Mayweather is not happy enough with that.
I hope they do fight and Pacman beats the **** out of him.

So Manny pulls out of a $40Million payday because he doesn't want to give blood samples in the 2 weeks prior to the fight?

Sounds very suspicious. I'm not sure how long it takes for steroids to clear the system but meth and coke take less than a week. Manny looks bad in all this.

I think Mayweather realized that there was no upside in fighting Manny and he found a way to bug-out

except for the biggest pay day of his life... win or loose.

Apparently he cares about more than the money. Definitely appears that he and his camp did whatever it could to get out of that fight and try to make it less obvious that they're chicken ****s.

Seriously let down. Boxing needed a fight like this. I mean hell Holyfield is coming back for god's sake.

I hope something works out... 40mil a piece easy on a night like other nights shouldn't deter these folks... Upsetting situation, being an athlete you should tested all the time...
