Phyisically it won't effect it. That's a scientific fact. His body would regnerate the blood in like an hr. It could affect him psychologically though. However, Pacquiao has to get blood tested once a year for diseases in order to keep his fight liscence. He actually took a blood test about 2 to 3 weeks before the Hatton fight. Pacquiao knows damn well that he's not mentally affected by the blood test. I have no idea why his team keeps putting out this nonsense.
Again - Mayweather is also subject to the testing What is the point of a test to see if you're doing something illegal if you know when the exams are going to be proctored?
Im finding the whole thing reasonably disturbing myself, its hard to know who to believe. After Margarito, a second superstar,Pacquiao, the biggest superstar, in the sport succumbing to cheating or whatever shenanigans , within a year? It would be the hugest ****ing body blow of all time.
I agree. Now I believe the olympic style testing is over the top. However, Pacquiao has allowed himself to be painted into a corner. I don't like how they've handled the situation. At this point, it's worth for him to just take the test. If he wins and is cleans, he won't have to answer anymore questions about it.
Could it be that freddie roach is stubborn and doesn't want pacquiao to give into mayweathers demands or is it that floyd sr has scared his son soo bad,that floyd needs every advantage to secure a victory.Either way i hope this fight gets made,because floyd is already spooked by pacquiao's destructions of oscar,hatton and now cotto,regardless,if u mayweather fans wanna admit it or not.Floyd called pacquiao out and he accepted and now that pacquiao called floyds bluff,that's when all this crap came about.Floyd sr seen ringside along,with mosley the destruction pacquiao causes,and i bet any amount of money floyd sr called lil floyd and told him not to fight pacquiao.Roger gives pacquiao his respect and says that little dude has ballz and say's floyd would be the bigger man,more skilled,faster and all that,if they fought,i never heard roger saying pacman was on roids.They need to stop all this bs and make the fight happen,let pacquaio take the jan blood test,feb blood test and one right after the fight. It sounds like to me floyd jr and sr have a bad case of,PACQUIAOPHOBIA.
But you will still have an excuse right? I mean you said Cotto was weight Drained when he fought Pac. I mean cmon now....:deal
This is pure bull****. Doesn't matter what test he passes a small minority of people will still say he is on something. Its simply the nature of things, once you start getting to good people accuse you of cheating and those accusations will never go away. Its just like any other conspiracy theory no matter how little evidence you have or in some cases actually insurmountable evidence against people still believe it.
True, i listened to Freddie Roach's views on Skysports but it did not reassure me of anything. It was gutting when Arum came out today saying so quickly the fight is off, because Pac didnt want to take the test. I personally dont believe that Pac is a cheater, but then again im pretty much telling myself that so that i dont think in the future when theres another great who moves up in weights and dominates, we dont all think hes a cheat. You are right though no doubt, the two must come to an agreement over the testing because otherwise both legaces will be slightly tarnished and boxing will have a 'what if' air to it for at least a year.
Why does Floyd have to accept three test? The CEO of USADA stated that three wouldn't be good because you will know when the test are coming and you can still work around them. Why won't Pacquiao accept the random blood testing? Mayweather will.
pac is willing to have his blood tested. but with one very simple request that it should not happen wihin days into the fight. the USADA can guarantee this? its not like pac was refusing outright.
I FOR ONE DON'T BELIEVE HE IS ON ****...HOWEVER, HIM NOT WANTING TO TAKE THE TESTS "RANDOM" CAUSES A GREAT DEAL OF SUSPICION...IF HE HAS NOTHING TO HIDE THAN TAKE THE TEST!:deal
He said he has NO PROBLEM WITH THE TEST BUT DOES HAVE A PROBLEM TAKING THE TEST CLOSE 2 THE FIGHT! 1 day out or something. Some people just assuming he is out right refusing to have a blood test.
what the **** are you talkin about. a tea spoon of blood could not affect pac it has even been said it only takes an hour to come back. if he can win a fight after losing about five or six tea spoons of blood he won't be affected to bad.
