Manny Paquaio on why he didn't want to take the blood test [interview]

[-EAGLE-]

Your hiding something.

no i'm not; i'm not going to give blood cuz i got a lotta ****ing to do!

just joking man; still think they will fight; let's see how floydie does against shane.

[IMDAZED]

there's a rule against catch weights?

I guess ray leonard v tommy hearns, pernell v chavez, terry norris v meldrick taylor, bernard v oscar all broke the rules too?

You didn't know?

[Modobo3]

It's not his Engrish that's the problem; it's that he is full of contradiction and seemingly has no good reason as to why he shouldn't take the tests.

Another very vaild point!

[Doctor_Tenma]

Surprisingly, this is not a contradiction to some.

I can't believe this ****, I really can't. I'm not even a Pacquiao fan and I seem to know more about the situation with Erik Morales then most do. Check this out,




No mention of blood here

[Modobo3]

It wasn't his english, he answered every question. Just the excuses he made.

Repeat of a point that noone can dispute!

[RockStar45]

This is what SOME Pac fans refuse to understand from most reasonable boxing fans...He's NOT GUILTY...He's very very very SUSPECT.

Sure, I think that's fair to say. And if Mayweather fans articulated that more "Pacquiao may or may not be guilty but he does look su****ious" then I'd have no problem with that. My only problem is the whole "Read/Watch this! This means Manny is guilty!" BS.

Pacquiao said he didn't have a problem with OSDT as long as it isn't 48 hours before the fight. Then he wanted a 30 day cutoff/ then 24 day cutoff. Now his excuse for refusing OSDT is because he was weak against Erik Morales? Does that even make sense? Then he goes on to say that he trains very hard within those 14 days. Don't fighters rest during that time?

Well knowing the whole Morales incident might help

I think 14 days prior is when fighters start to taper down the sparring rounds but they're still working hard.

[Biolink]

Him and his camp need to all collaborate, come up with 1 excuse, and stick to it.

Also, I think the argument that it was his English is ******. His English is bad, but he could comprehend what was being asked of him

[turkish981]

thats a new take on the situation.....good post

agreed! very different take.. and the more i think about it, look how quickly they have put the clottey fight together...

people do sometimes forget the bussines side of boxing, if arum has made promices that he couldnt keep, it makes sence that he had to move on to another opponent... manny a puppett on strings springs to mind?

this might explain why manny was so su****ious on this interview, but who knows!!

No it doesn't, not at all. It's a lame excuse.
