If a test is made for both fighters just prior to the fight, Pac could feel weakened and PBF does not. People respond differently.
That is complete BS. Taking a vial of blood does not weaken an athlete. Anyway, all Olympic athletes take this test. What is Manny the exception? Face the facts. Manny is a cheat.
U have a good point. Pac needs to just take the test so he can make the fight happen and make his biggest payday.
If Cotto is saying its hardest hes ever been hit when he fought Pacquiao and Cotto faced Margarito probably when Magarito had loaded gloves, it does make you think.
Scar you are attempting to rationalize something that defies reason. There is no way Manny has any out. He is a cheat. My guess is that his "cheat" of choice is blood doping. This is why he wants the 30 day window. Mayweather has agreed to his terms no matter how insane. 10 Million per pound over the limit? That is almost silly. Mayweather was OK with it because he knows he can do it. Manny now can't test? He doesn't like needles? But he has tatoos! It "weakens" him? So it is good enough to all Olympic athletes but somehow has a magical deleterious affect on Manny? BS! This case is closed. He is a cheat.
Not so sure about that.I can only tell from experience that I felt sometimes weakened after the doctor took blood from me.
Okay Blade. I am going to hold your hand and help you extrapolate a bit. You know when I say a few key things and your brain is supposed to piece together the rest. Manny's defense was never "Man F that I am a pro." Manny came up with the fantasy that somehow these tests will "weaken" him and he is "scared of needles". The THOUSANDS of athletes that compete in the Olympics are the best in the world setting world records constantly. Now if this form of testing "weakened" people how could that be so? Scared of needles? Really? You are so scared of needles that you got tattoos? And those cheap boxing gloves on him look like a straight prison Hepatitis special. None of it makes sense. Actually Manny has been acting erratic ever since FMJ agreed in principal to the fight. You are the one that needs to review history and think.
There is a distinct difference between "shock" and being "weakened". The reason you feel light headed is shock. You are scared of seeing your blood being spilled. This is very common. That passes in a matter of minutes at most hours. When you say "weakened" that implies that the affect will last days on end. The flu, pneumonia, systemic infection, dehydration, malnourishment, etc... weaken a person. Those are totally different animals. Manny is a cheat. :deal
Also, I don't think that the test needs to be right before the fight. It just needs to be within the 30 day window before the fight. This will stop Manny from doing what I honestly believe he is doing, blood doping. Basically he increases his red blood cell count. This gives him super oxygen rich blood. He is then able to out last, out muscle, and out hustle anyone in the ring due to his added oxygen availability. Think high altitude training x10. Blood doping is only detectable by checking for insane red blood cell counts. He could do ANYTHING post fight. If he bled off a pint after the fight the doping would be undetectable.
Mayweather's defense was that pacman looked so good in his last three wins against bigger guys that is why he must be on drugs. Mannys got to take the blood test or he's one guilty drug cheating sob. Shouldn't mayweather just say 'F**k it. Pac's a smaller less talented guy than I am. Im the greatest boxer in the world and im gonna beat the sh*t out of pac even if he's a drug cheat.'
