Mayweather vs. Pacquiao Fight in Danger of Not Happening?

Thursday, January 7th 2010 | Leave a Comment

Nooo! This can’t be true! The fight that was predicted to be the one of the biggest fights ever between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao has officially been called off, because the two parties couldn’t agree on the drug testing protocol. Pacquiao’s promoter and head of Top Rank, Bob Arum told ESPN:

Manny accepted what was on the table and Mayweather rejected it. Haymon and Schaefer tired to convince Floyd all [Tuesday night] and [Wednesday] and he wouldn’t agree to it. He didn’t want the fight. He never wanted the fight. I always knew the fight wouldn’t happen.

For all of you readers who know very little about boxing, Mayweather and Pacquiao are considered to be the two top boxers in the world currently and this fight was on track to break HBO PPV records and bring over $200 million in revenue, but that may be all down the drain now. We personally find it hard to believe that this two boxers are going to let something as small as drug testing keep them from making a load of money.

So will this fight ever happen? We would bet millions that it will. Just watch and see.

    Floyd agreed to a compromise of testing 2 weeks from the fight. I’m sorry if Pacquiao and Roach reject that, they definitely have something to hide!

    2 weeks??? 2 Weeks is plenty of time Pacquiao. Make the fight!!!!

    What? Pacqiao didn’t turn the fight down Mayweather did. Pacqiao agreed to the testing for a 2 weeks before and after fight….it’s ridiculous to test a day before..Mayweather face it …is a coward

    OMG…i knew this would happen. We all know that Mayweather is a little b%#tch…he only fights people who he knows he can beat but now that he was going to fight Pacquiao he knows that he has a very high chance of loosing. So know he starts making up a lot of crap and uses that drug as an excuse to not fight. Pacquiao will efin kill this guy in the ring even if Mayweather uses his elbow like always. I just hope the fight does happen
