While I don't give his excuses much credit, there are differences between blood samples being taken, an injection being given and a tattoo. yes they all involve needles, but a tyre and a steering wheel are both "wheels"
pac was more superstitious about the blood sample cause he lost a fight last time he had a samle taken or something, i think he was also saying that only urine tests were required by the comission therefore didnt see why he had to have a blood test.
That's true. But being afraid of needles was one of about twenty excuses he or his team put out there. This isn't his first tatt...so it's obvious he likes needles more than he is afraid of them. Giving blood does cause anxiety and tension in some people. Pac is on video giving a blood sample for the Hatton fight. None of that applies.
As I siad I don't give his excuses much credit, personally I'd be happy to get 20 injections, but having blood taken for me is very unpleasant, I would not want to do it before competing at all, a day or 2 out would be ok, but just before competing I can understand the apprehension, then again for several millions I'd accommodate much more than a ablood sample. . .
im scared of needles and im getting a tattoo... its apples and oranges its more he is susperstitious about blood taking
Fair enough, but I can't see any apprehension. Five year old kids give blood samples for the promise of a lollipop. Olympic boxers have been subjected to random testing for the past three games. I haven't seen any adverse effects of it in competition. Roach said it takes Pac three days to get over a blood test. Further bs because if that was true - then how would he be able to even train him during camp?....Pac did say he would give blood up until 14 days before the fight.
