It's been rumored that Mayweather is just another Lance Armstrong. Pacquiao has long said if Mayweather takes a blood test before the fight he' d be ok with fighting him.

Lol what? You realize the reason the fight didn't take place in the first round of negotiations was because Pacquiao didn't want drug testing? Maweather has been the most adamant supporter of drug testing in boxing. He's been tested himself for several fights and both guys were tested throughout training for this fight.

Please don't talk about shit you don't know about.

That's not the only reason, Mayweather, wanted a bigger purse, a no rematch clause, extra drug testing, to pick the venue, the ref and a lot more details. I'n the end Pac man just said..." *beep* it, I'll give you everything, so if you lose, you really did lose.'

Well - that was exciting.

People that paid a lot of money for this are bound to feel a bit shitty right now.

Boring fight. Not a mark on either of them.

That wouldn't change anything. I can understand someone saying that if in the last few rounds there was a turn around - but none of that occurred here. In fact, Manny seemed more worn out than Mayweather by the end of the fight, which tells me that Mayweather could run circles around Manny for another 10 rounds if necessary - his conditioning was superior and Manny was only getting slower than Mayweather as time went on.

It was a crappy fight - when one fighter continues to backpedal and win only because of jabs, that's not a real fight IMHO.
