from the man's own mouth: Why Pac didn't accept blood tests 14 days from the fight

That was awhile ago. I even apologized for it stating that's how I remember it, and what did you continue to do?

Attack me for no reason.

But it wasn't in 6, I remember you agreeing with Orishaman in his topic.

 

Any true Pac fan wouldn't give Pac a ton of credit for beating Morales who's last two fights were a KO loss to Pac and a bad beat down by Raheem.

I guess he deserves as much credit for what was clearly a shot Morales.

 

i'm glad you pointed this out.
look at the first morales fight. he visibly loses focus and becomes more hesitant right after getting cut. it took him a few rounds to get his groove back - coincidentally the time it usually takes to stem blood flow from a cut.
look at the marquez fight (can't remember if it was I, II or both). he visibly loses focus when he got cut. it took him a few rounds to get his groove back - coincidentally the time it usually takes to stem blood flow from a cut.
so blood is pac's weakness (like a lot of fighters).

 

muhammad ali is mentally weak cause he's afraid of flying (well known fact).

but he fights at the highest level in the sport of boxing against monsters liston, foreman, shavers, lyle, frazier, norton.....

imagine that.

 

Blood is involved the sport during fight night.

Flying is not.

Unless you are fan man.

 

i'll assume that's a little pun on your part and not an inability to draw parallels and see analogies - in which case, nice.:good

 

I'm not about to sit here and say whether or not he's clean. However, I can tell you that his reasoning sounds like grade A bull****. Now there could be plenty of reasons for why he didn't accept the 14 day window, but the reasons he gave sound like straight up lies.

 

So once they got the bleeding under control he was ok? Well guess what, the bleeding is under control right away when you get that amount of blood drawn. So let's stop with the bull****. He should've never been able to recover because he had alreadly lost the blood. According to Roach, Manny believes getting blood drawn weakens him for 3 days. Funny how when blood is gushing during a fight, it takes a matter of minutes for him to recover.

 

illogical isn't it? he recovers WITHIN minutes during a fight, with no bandages or stitches and some mother****er trying to open it up again. Yet, it supposedly takes him 3 days to recover after blood is drawn.
it's what you call the PSYCHOLOGICAL factor.

 

It's called being a lier. Why would he believe that blood loss only affects him in less thretening situations? And by the way, I hope you know that Pacquiao gets his blood drawn at least once a year in order to keep his liscense. They have him on video getting his blood taken 24 days before the Hatton fight and he didn't look the least bit worried. What would you say if someone told you they were afraid of heights and then you found out that they were a damn trapeze artist? Anyone with half a brain would say that person was full of **** when they said they were afraid of heights.

 

yes it affects him more in less threatening situations, i.e. in training camp.
it's been said numerous times, on esb and other sites that the last month of a training camp is the most critical with volume and intensity peaking in the -4, -3, -2 weeks, then tapering in the final week.

 

That's totally illogical. I don't give a damn how intense the last few weeks of camp are, it's not as intense as the actual fight. If he can function during an actual fight when he has blood gushing from head, then he can function in camp hrs. after have a teaspoon of blood has removed from him. It's seems pretty obvious that he's not being forthright. Don't you find it odd that he said he needed 30 days to recover and then changed it to 24 days afte video surfaced of him getting blood drawn 24 days before knocking out Hatton in 2 rounds? I don't think that's a coincidence.

 

of course it's not as intense as the actual fight, but a training camp is structured such that you are as ready as possible for the actual fight. being thrown off a few days here and there totally wrecks the momentum you gained from weeks and weeks of vomit-inducing work. then you add the psychological factor.

 

Manny's gettin a Barry Bonds head.
