    For those saying Pac's turning down $20 mil for superstitious beliefs...

    Why do you think some athletes abstain from sex a day, weeks or even months before a big game or whatever.. I mean that's sex FFS who wouldn't want to have sexy time everyday??.. Reason is athletes are supertitious individuals or have rituals they have to follow and if broken can lead to them mentally ****ed and thus affecting performance.. If pac believes he won't be 100% if he gets tested on the day of the fight he has every right to refuse..

    it's a simple test. Not the fight. A damn test. It's just a test.

      1. its a test that would be performed by an organization that floyd chose

      2. test never been done before in the sport ever

      3. a test manny is willing to take as long as it is done in a way that he believes would not affect him physically.

      4. test that is being subjected to him based on unfounded accusations by floyd's father

      hence, the lawsuit...

            I know. I was just trying to be funny in my previous post.

            Actually, Team Pacquiao agreed to the tests, and then balked.

            But, it is what it is. There's probably no other way to save the fight.

              i am aware of that, but manny believes tests too close to the fight would affect him physically.

              if that is the case, it would certainly affect him mentally.

              he isn't even supposed to have agreed in any tests not sanctioned by the nevada state in the first place. there is no basis for the additional tests, except for floyd's paranoia and his father's baseless accusation, hence he has a right to question it.

              he agreed to be tested in terms that are far stricter than is required. and some still think he is trying to hide something. smh
