According to a recent article by Michael Marely (speculation can start now) Bob Arum has stated that there is nothing holding up the fight between May and Pac. Michael asked Arum what about the testing issue, Arum said there is no issue that everything has been settled. My question is, is this hype of is it for real? Can there be a possible 2012 match between the two biggest names in boxing. I would have May by either UD or a late stoppage due to Manny's eye shut. I would say Manny but his has 0 boxing skills, no jab, and his defense is left to be desired, now he does have a punchers chance, I doubt if May would let him get close to him to have that chance. May will box him throughout the fight and use his size against Pac and uses his reach to tag Manny all night. This fight will resemble how he fought Judah.

Yeah right!

Arum says there are no issues because, according to him, USADA can handle Floyd's testing in the United States whereas WADA will handle Manny's testing in the Philippines.

In other words, he's preparing to throw the blame back onto Mayweather. He already knows Floyd isn't going to agree to that because, just like Team Pacquiao allegedly is concerned with the neutrality of USADA, Floyd is OBVIOUSLY going to be concerned with the neutrality of some Philippine organization testing one of their own Congressman. He knows Floyd will raise a stink about that, so he's acting like there is no issue as far as they're concerned...that way, when Floyd doesn't agree to that, they'll once again point the finger at him to say, "See, we told you he was scared to fight." Nevermind the fact that WADA has already said that it doesn't make any sense for two different organizations to handle the testing if the event is taking place in the United States. As far as I was told, USADA has no problems with testing athletes overseas, so I'm not sure why they can't test Manny in the Philippines too.

So then the only way to make this fight happen now is if Pacquiao trains in the US? Is that the solution then? Ok everybody, if anybody from here on out wants to fight Floyd Jr, you have to do your training in the US only. First Floyd wants OSDT then he wants you have to train in the US. Any foreign fighter that wants to fight him train in the US or nothing because he skeptical. How about this, just retire after the Ortiz fight when you beat him and claim you have nothing else to prove. Because anyway I could give a s#%t about this fight. The requirements to make this fight happen is a joke. F&#k everyone involved in this. Please please let there be an upset in either or both the Pacquiao-Marquez fight or the Ortiz-mayweather fight so all the BS can get blown up. War Marquez and Ortiz.
