Why a blood test would effect Pacquiao more than Mayweather..

There is such thing as testing "in-competition" and "out-competition" some testing for PED's for HGH's are requried for both in-competition and out-competition. The real argument here is not on the nature of testings but on the randomness and frequency of testings. If the Mayweather camp is afraid that Pacman is a habitual user of HGH like CERA or BALCO, it is useless to test him during fight night because the purpose of such drug is to enhance your performance during training and not during the fight night. If both parties really wanted this fight to happen, a simple compromise is very easy to sort out. Allow that demand of Mayweather camp regarding the frequency and randomness of testings and on the other hand, for Pacman's side, only allow such randomness of testing reducing the window to only 1 week from fight night. Wouldn't that sound reasonable?PBF is demanding random blood testing, to be administered by USADA (later agreed to move off USADA) and that the test itself has no predetermined cut off time which could lead up to fight night itself.
PacMan agreeable to 3 blood tests: one after the press conference, one 30-days before the fight, one right after the fight in the dressing room.
Manny is not against any blood testing it's VERY CLEAR. If he is in steroids or anything, it will surely show up in the last blood test. In fact the first 2-tests will not matter much, that's why NSAC never required it. I think NSAC should amend its rules on medical testing and should include blood testing right after every fight, and if the winner tested positive the decision should be nullified and the offender should be fined. I think there is no need for a random blood testing during training and before the fight, random urine testing would be enough during that period of time.
Now, if PBF really is stepping on the plate and wants to fight Manny, he should accept even the last blood test because this is the only blood test that will have best effective results. Manny is already giving him favor of having his blood tested right after the fight in his dressing room, which is already beyond the required medical testing procedure by NSAC and not even required. Is this not enough agreeing to PBF's demand for a blood testing to find out if someone is using illegal substance?
Arum doesn't want Mayweathers team dictating the rules because it's the job of the commission. If you join a contest, you don't make the rules. If you want some rules to be amended, address it to the proper governing body of the contest.
Everbody wants clean, fair fight. This terms is already fair to both fighters and also to the fans. Let's make the fight happen!
In addition, NSAC should include in their yearly convention the proposal to ugrade their anti-doping procedure. Current urine testing procedures are out of date already. It should already include the latest urinology testings to detect new generation PED's and in addition, blood testings and follicle testings to further ensure the integrity that boxers are fighting fairly.Comment

Bull****, failure, lies, nonsense, nothing more than typical bias against Floyd, commonly demonstrated by the thread starter.
Having said that, just for the record, as a Floyd fan, I never supported his sides accusations and demands for the blood test, in fact, if the fight never happens because of it, I may just have to renounce myself as a fan.Comment

It's more ******ed for you to think that a blood test affects everyone the same way. But what's even more ******ed is that *****s don't see anything wrong for Floyd's camp demanding Manny to do this test while Floyd's camp had never asked any of their previous opponents before to do this test and the fact that they're dictating and changing the rules of Boxing in regards to the drug testing. Not to mention that Floyd himself have done the same standard drug test throughout his whole career and believed in it, depended on it, and relied on it as well. That's quite hypocritical for Floyd and his *****s IMO and none of you *****s don't see anything wrong with that?Comment

The last sentence in your first paragraph sounds reasonable enough. In fact, PacMan and Roach is amenable to a 5-day before the fight window, but team Mayweather rejected it and keep on insisting the olympic random style testing which the test itself has no predetermined cut off time which could lead up to the fight night.There is such thing as testing "in-competition" and "out-competition" some testing for PED's for HGH's are requried for both in-competition and out-competition.

The purpose of the blood test is to find out whether someone is using illegal or banned substance. If the effect of these drugs is to enhance performance during trainings but not on the fight itself, therefore it is safe to say that their own skills is on the play during the fight. Any scientific study will be appreciated if it can show that training with enahncement drugs tanslate into additional power punch or stamina comes the actual fight.
Floyd Sr. said: "I don't think he can beat Lil' Floyd with steroids in him or not. He doesn't have the skills..."
Now show the world that your BIG MOUTH is making sense!!!Comment

I'd say it will weaken him and the pacquiao that will be fighting mayweather after drawn a blood a day or 2 days before would be not 100%. And yes it will be an advantage for floyd because pacquiao is more of an aggressive fighter and floyd being a defensive requires little or less energy.Comment

What a load of ****.you really think Pacquiao is thinking about all that.. not eating and such. In his head it was the blood test and the Winning gloves.
If it was bull**** then why do MLB players do the same ruitine everytime they bat or pitch?
Why does Landon Donovan do the same hand jestures before a penalty kick?
You have to remember that Pacquiao comes from a small 3rd world Catholic country and is very simple minded himself. You know how superstitious Catholics are.
Every Catholic I know is in some way superstitious.Comment
