"Even a 50/50 split with Mayweather is nonsense." - 5/31/09

"Mayweather knows Manny's phobia for giving blood, and he's using that to get out of the fight." - 12/23/09

"He [Pacquiao] doesn't want to do it [give blood] when he's in training, but he'll do it prior to going into training, and after the fight." - 12/23/09

"He will subject himself to three tests; one given in January during the week the fight is formally announced, one thirty days from the fight, no later than February 13, and the final one immediately following the fight, in Manny's locker room." - 12/23/09

"We'd only do it [testing] with the Nevada Athletic Commission. But for now, Manny has asked me to move on to Malignaggi." - 12/25/09

"They made the 14 day offer and Todd sent a text message to (Pacquiao's agent) Michael Koncz in the Philippines. Five minutes later, Koncz replied and said Manny rejected that." - 01/08/10

"The nurses sometimes can't find the vein. They keep poking and poking and poking and by the time they get the blood out, you can't move your arm for 3 days or 4 days." - 01/21/10

"If we decide we want to do a rematch with Marquez, there is no reason to sit down with Mayweather." - 11/14/11

"Manny needs time for that eye cut [from the Nov. 12 Marquez III bout] to heal properly." - 11/29/11

"May 5 is out for us, it can't happen, because we want to explore the idea of getting a [temporary] stadium/arena up on the streets of Las Vegas that can seat 40,000." - 01/06/12

"In order to maximize revenues from the fight, you have to have a stadium larger than the MGM Grand which holds 16,500." - 01/11/12

- Bob Arum

Someone please explain this to me

Even if you believe something as ridiculous as Floyd knowing Manny had some kind of superstition or aversion to giving blood close to a fight then you have to ask yourself why did Floyd offer him a two week cutoff then, and foil his very own plan??

Obviously Pac wasn't too confident he could pass the tests. We know he refused them, and when he finally took them, his performance was abysmal.

Has there been a fighter in history who's ducked more boxers/boxers in their prime than Floyd? Has there been a fighter in history who ran as much as Floyd did in the ring?
