If you had a chance to make $30-40 million would you take a blood test?

    Not if it was going to effect my preparation for the biggest fight of my life. And not to appease a bunch of crack head former drug dealers. And not when my legacy is already set and there are other options like Shane Mosley for $20 million and 20 million times less the hassle.

    Would I, hell yeah! But I don't have tens of millions of dollars already. Pac can make 30-40 million fighting Mosley and Foreman (maybe). Pac wants to run for office in his country so he has other plans besides boxing. IMO he doesn't need all of Floyds headaches.

    homie, a blood test doesn't effect your performance. Quit acting like a little girl.

    That is easy to say, but Pacquaio has more than that kind of money to salivate and just nod to what Team Mayweather ask from them.

    If I was Freddie I wouldn't want Pac to have any little thought in the back of his mind that Mayweather's henchmen could stop his training any time, multiple times, up to a day before the fight to stick a needle in him. If it's not that intrusive, why isn't it commonplace then?

    If YOU ARE FLOYD would you ask Pac to submit to random test and jeopardize yourself from earning $30-$40 million? would you?

    If that's the case why even do a blood test, much less guarantee Team Pacquiao's wishes of no blood tests on fight week?

    Mayweather should agree to that instead of insisting on USADA.

    Another stupid response.... yeah it does affect your perfomance if your training is interrupted for some blood testing not just once but multiple times and you will be asked to give blood samples during THE WEIGH-IN which the mayweather's camp wants...

    You're offering a bunch of broke secretaries $30million, these guys and girls will sell their balls for that kind of money so please don't compare them to Pacquiao. Pacquiao is a well established fighter and person, he has enough money and wouldn't give a **** if this fight doesn't happen, what people like Pac care about after reaching such level is reputation and public satisfaction/acceptance, money is old news.

    When a fellow fighter asks him to take different style of testing so he can prove that he's not a cheater that's an insult and Pac has pride as you know and wouldn't give a **** about 40 or 30 million when someone is clearly trying to **** on him indirectly. These guys have been approaching Pac like he's a cheater without ANY proof, the only proof is him beating the **** out of guys they expected him to lose against. Show me ONE SIGN of steroids against DLH, Pac used movement and skill there, steroids doesn't give you skill overnight, it enhances performance and boosts stamina but skill?, **** no and Pac used skill in all these fights. Against Hatton he used a punch they told Hatton and Sr. in the face they will use and they can't do anything about it because they can't get anyone as fast and powerful as Pac, remember the "same move every time" talk?, that's the same punch that started the end. Cotto was competitive early but eventually broke down, Pac also got tired from time to time and took certain moments in each round off, what does steroid have to do there?, he caught Cotto with a monstrous punch and dropped him. Steroids doesn't give chin, skill or general ability, it enhances performance that's it.

    I'd do a blood test for free. I'm sure Pac would do the same. Just not days before a fight where he believes he'll be affected mentally. TS fails to realize is this isn't about the money for Pac, he's already got millions. It's about the thought of compromising his performance in his anticipated fight. He never flat out refused the blood test. He just expressed concern about the timing of the tests, much like Asafa Powell in the Beijing Olympics. Asafa expressed anger being tested so close to his races as it really threw him off mentally. He did perform well though. I think this problem will be resolved and the fight will go on as planned.

    I'd sleep with Halle Berry even if she refused to take an AIDS test.

    Why does Void want to break the rules? Pac agreed to test blood right after the fight and also urine.
