    Don't even be shy to spit it out. It is the truth. He is the greatest of all time. Let's just enjoy while it lasts.


    Strength athletes, Speed athletes, Skill athletes of today are better than the yesteryears. No need to Romanticize that oldies should be better when you are witnessing the historical best at this very moment. :good

    He's closed that case, quite a while ago. Greatest Asian fighter ever as well. The man would have to go to cruiserweight, taking a title at every stop along the way to get the proper credit on this board for what he's accomplished.

    Catchweights were good enough for Top 10 ATG Sugar Ray Leonard, who by the way won 2 weight division titles in ONE catchweight fight.

    If it's was good enough for Sugar Ray Leonard, it's certainly good enough for Manny Pacquiao. :good

    Science supports Pac's concerns!

    This is for those who say giving blood for tests does not affect athletic performance.

    Blood tests for drug use involve collecting about 10-20 cc of blood (1-2 vials). 4 of these drug tests will equal 50-100 cc, or about 10% - 20% of a pint of blood given in donations (450cc).


    1. How do periodic reductions in hemoglobin affect an athlete's ability to train?

    From:

    Blood is a complicated tissue with many different roles. When you donate blood, you give up a pint of fluid containing mostly water along with various proteins and cells in solution. During high-intensity endurance activities however, it is hemoglobin, found within our red blood cells, that is most important.

    Hemoglobin delivers oxygen to our tissues, and when we exercise our muscles require increased amounts of oxygen. If we lack sufficient hemoglobin, anaerobic, or without oxygen, metabolism will ensue (producing lactic acid) at even seemingly moderate levels of intensity.

    , (which is why you may not donate more often than every two months). What then are the lasting effects of this red blood cell loss?


    Assuming that your cardiac output (the amount of blood pumped by the heart) remains constant, a drop in hemoglobin concentration associated with donating blood will reduce your oxygen delivery to working muscles by 10 percent. Still, when you are at rest, or even during moderate levels of exercise, oxygen delivery, even at this decreased capacity, far outpaces demand.

    However, once you reach a heart rate that is around 5 to 10 percent below your usual anaerobic threshold, your body's demand for oxygen will outpace its supply. For example, if your metabolism typically becomes anaerobic at a heart rate of 170, then after donating blood you will become anaerobic at a heart rate of between 157 and 164 beats per minute. This value will fluctuate because your hemoglobin level will be rising slowly each day, thus the most significant effect will be felt in the first few days after donating.

    2. Donating Blood - What Active People Need to Know

    He notes that many variables make it difficult to predict how much or how long donating a pint of blood will affect athletic performance. However, he notes that recovery after blood donation is fairly fast. Eichner writes: "In my anecdotal experience,

    ."


    5 blood tests is about 100cc, or 23% of what is given in donations (450cc). 23% of 4 weeks is roughly 6 days. 6 days of not feeling well during training? Sounds very compromising.

    for some reason past fighters were greatly overrated here, it seems like they're going to smash every fighter in this era.
