Pacquiao has reportedly agreed to fight Floyd Mayweather on March 13, 2010, for a split of $50 million up front, at the MGM Grand Las Vegas which the promoters of both camp already agreed. However, the fight has been called off as of now, according to promoter Bob Arum, due to disagreements about olympic style drug tests. Floyd Mayweather's camp wanted blood tests by the United States Anti-Doping Agency, which conducts the tests anytime from the fight is signed to the fight date. However the Pacquiao camp refused to provide these samples, only willing to allow blood to be taken from Pacquiao at least 30 days before the fight date as well as immediately after the conclusion of the bout. Freddie Roach, on the other hand, has commented that he would allow a blood sample to be taken from Pacquiao if there was a cut-off date for the blood testing or at least one week before the fight, but promoter Bob Arum has offered the chance to fight Pacquiao, instead to Paul Malignaggi, signaling the end of talks between both sides.Buy & Sell Floyd Mayweather Tickets through YourTicketMarket.com.
