At first it really seemed to me that Floyd Mayweather Jr was the one ducking Manny Pacquaio, but now it is clear who is the one running.Manny Pacquio was asked to participate in Olympic style drug testing, and to me why wouldn't you agree to that?

Here you are getting a chance for a fight of a lifetime, and you let your ego stand in the way of becoming one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world.
Manny blew off the fight and ended up beating Joshua Clottey.
He basically hid behind that fight to distract the public attention from the talks of him and Floyd Mayweather duking it out.
I really do think my words in the past about Floyd were quite harsh, I admit I was wrong, I was riding the wave of wanting a blockbuster fight at the new Yankee Stadium.
M. Pacquiao is trying to make a case for himself and blame it on the management, but if he were to agree to the extensive drug testing then there wouldn't be an issue.
Whats unfair to me is in a way Manny basically said Floyd has to get through "Sugar"Shane Mosley on May 1st to get to him.
To me M. Pacquiao is not calling the shots here, he was lucky to get out of a fight with Floyd the last time, and if he steps in the ring with him expect him to be a future victim to the undefeated champion.
Lets put it this way after F. Mayweather destroys Shane Mosley maybe he should give you a shot at the title, but as of now it is not his fault why the fight hasn't happened.
Submit to the testing Manny if you got nothing to hide then you should come up clean, otherwise if you cannot agree to something that Floyd is willing to do then maybe you should stop posing as some kind of hero.
After all the steroid talks in sports this is not an unreasonable request, Floyd has more to lose, and is willing to go the extra yard to keep his streak in tact.
If this fight does end up happening then remember Floyd Mayweather Jr unlike Manny Pacquaio remains unbeaten, and is due for another huge win when he takes on S. Mosley.
