Wait, so we’re back to the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight talk?! Even though fans would love to see this fight, I think most are over the idea and talk of it. I know I am. I can’t stand all the back and forth talk – either make it happen or fall back!
I just can’t see this happening, but Floyd Mayweather said he would fight Manny Pacquiao— on ONE condition. Drug test?! Nope. Find out what it is after the jump & let us know what you think…

WBC welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. is willing to entertain the possibility of a fight with Manny Pacquiao under one condition – the Filipino star would have to leave his promoter, Top Rank, and sign a contract with Mayweather Promotions. Mayweather face WBC/WBA 154-pound champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on September 14th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Pacquiao takes on Brandon Rios on November 23rd in Macua, China.
Mayweather parted ways with Top Rank in 2006 and became a free agent. Over the years the boxer has often been critical of Top Rank and the time he spent under their promotional banner.
“The only way he’s getting the fight with me is if he signs with Mayweather Promotions. He’s got to give me fights with Mayweather Promotions. If he don’t give me no fights under Mayweather Promotions, then he’s not getting the fight. That’s how it is working now, because the ball is in my court. The ball has been in my court. I have been the A side,” Mayweather told Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports.
