Has Manny Pacquiao finally silenced Floyd Mayweather Jr. -- Examiner

By Rick Rockwell, Examiner.com

On Friday, unbeaten American boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. skipped a court ordered deposition in the defamation suit that Manny Pacquiao filed by the beginning of 2010. Normally, the brash boxer enjoys to hear himself talk but this time Floyd decided to remain silent, begging the question "Has Manny finally silenced Floyd?". In a Friday report by The Grand Rapids Press, Pacquiao's attorney Daniel Petrocelli said that Floyd was supposed to answer questions about his accusations of Manny taking PEDs, but decided to skip out instead.

For 1 1/2 years, nobody could get Floyd Mayweather Jr. to stop talking about Manny taking the drug tests and implying that Pacquiao had uses PEDs. And now, when the time comes for him to provide factual evidence, Floyd remains silent.

All Floyd had to do was apologize to Pacquiao for making these harsh comments. A few weeks ago, two other defendants Oscar De La Hoya and Richard Schaefer formally and publicly apologized to Pacquiao and they were removed from the defamation suit. But Floyd decided to do the opposite. Instead, Floyd makes "take the test" t-shirts, which were clearly aimed at Pacquiao to adhere to his drug testing demands.
