How many of you have taken blood tests and urine tests?

that 10 million dollar penalty was just to appease the pacquiao camp so why not make a similiar concession? i understand mayweather's concerns. pacquiao has done some incredible things in recent years. he has dismantled bullies. utterly destroyed them. mayweather is afraid that pacquiao has an unfair advantage. thats totally understandable. hell, pacquiao should take it as a compliment if he really has nothing to hide. i dont see what the big deal is. mayweather would be getting weaker too as he would be subjected to the same tests. i dont undertand why pacquiao's reacting like this.

 

Boo hoo Manny doesn't like it.....or/and is scared....well too ****ing bad. Nobody is forcing him to be a professional athlete. A very small price to pay for all the compensation he gets.

 

i have several blood extractions and all are not the same. some were ****ed up and some are virtual painless. when they do **** up they would be numb or leave dark mark on the spot for up to 2 to 3 days or more. of course its easier to give **** than blood and i admit that i am not too comfortable with needles.

 

nah he just don't want the procedure and the conduct of the test. he agreed if NSAC would conduct it by a new protocol proposed by both parties. it's floyd who was playing the hardball by sticking with his USADA. i wonder why?

Luke 0 are you a pac sucking ***. Take the random test and shut the **** up, take the test and kick floyds ass, instead you want to sue him/ ***** ****

 

the athletes laying out the drug testing protocols. FFS atsch

 

I'm very self-aware when it comes to small aches or tweaks. I'm not even a top-level athlete, but I still wouldn't want to be poked with a needle a short time prior to strenuous exercise. I would feel tentative about the muscles close to the site of injection.
And I didn't even mention the drawn blood yet. Even if it's not a lot and even if it has enough time to replenish itself, it's the psychological aspect that matters more. I would prefer to be certain that I am at 100% of my strength and abilities.
Manny Pacquiao went up weight classes recently. This fight is at a higher weight than the last one. At some point, you wonder if you extended yourself too far and went too high. That invites self-doubt. You don't want to add to that, by questioning whether you are at the best level that you can be, or if you're the tiniest bit diminished.
Drawing blood too close to this fight could weaken him, at least psychologically. None of you can prove that's not true, since none of you boxed against that kind of opposition, going up in weight classes so fast.
