Another claim regarding pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao which said he had undergone a blood test 14 days before his May 2 fight against Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton whom he annihilated in two rounds, had been proven false.
ESPN’s Dan Rafael reported that when HBO televised "Pacquiao/Hatton 24/7" -- the four-part series that followed the buildup to Pacquiao's second-round knockout of Ricky Hatton to win the junior welterweight title in Las Vegas last May -- it aired footage of Pacquiao taking a routine blood test as part of his prefight medical exam in Los Angeles.
Rafael reported that the blood test was conducted "approximately 14 days before the fight" and went on to take a swipe at the boxing hero claiming "it punches holeds in Pacquiao's argument that giving blood inside 30 days of a fight negatively impacts his performance."
