The Pacquiao-Mayweather fight is expected to be the highest grossing PPV in the history of boxing if ever the fight will be settled. But due to blood test disputes, it seems that the Pacquiao-Mayweather fight will remain as a dream forever.
We’ve heard both sides. At first, Team Pacquiao rejected to undergo a series of blood test. Pacquiao’s refusal to the drug test draws controversy so he finally agreed to unlimited urine testing and at least three blood test. The first test is planned early this January, second test is 30 days before the fight, and last test right after the fight. But still, Mayweather’s camp is not satisfied. Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer said that he wanted to have a blood test done at less than 30 days before the fight because they believed that having a blood test done in 30 days is no longer effective. Top Rank CEO Bob Arum gave them an ultimatum that if they didn’t agree with their final decision it will be the end of their negotiations. Mayweather’s camp is still strong with their stand so Top Rank is negotiating with Yuri Foreman as Pacquiao’s next opponent.
Even though Pacquiao agreed with the blood test, boxing fans all over the world wants to know why Pacquiao wants the blood test to be done in 30 days before the fight. Some suspected that Pacquiao really takes performance-enhancing drugs. Some people also assumed that undergoing a blood test does not really affect boxer’s performance in the fight and some other people even compare it their boxing fight to Olympic games. “Mayweather will undergo a blood test so why Pacquiao is so afraid?” And this made Pacquiao a little bit disappointed.
Pacquiao never failed any drug test on his professional career. For the past ten years, he has only one loss and that was against Erik Morales. So what’s the connection of Erik Morales in Pacquiao-Mayweather fight? It seems that the Morales team strategy is something that Mayweather’s camp have discovered to beat Pacquiao.
THE HOLE: MORALES TEAM STRATEGY EXPOSED PACQUIAO’S WEAKNESS
Here’s a video taken on March 2005 after the first encounter of Manny Pacquiao and Erik Morales:
It was a post fight interview made by a Filipino newscaster named “Puno” regarding Pacquiao’s defeat against Morales.
Pacquiao discussed about the blood test done before the fight. Puno asked why does the Nevada State Commission insists to have a blood test done. Pacquiao said that he will not be permitted to fight Morales if he will not pass the blood test. Pacquiao explained that one month before the fight, Nevada State Commission rushed him to have a medical exam. He said that they needed his blood for medical requirements. He went back to training and before the weigh-in, he didn’t eat and didn’t even drink because he was in the exact weight. Then two days before the fight, NSAC called him to have a blood test again. Pacquiao said that he already underwent a blood test but NSAC said that the records were lost according to the doctor. Coach Freddie Roach with his manager Shelly were wondering why the NSAC did not have his medical records. According to Pacquiao, he have spoken to a certain doctor and said that it’s impossible for NSAC to lose his record because it is a well-established institution. Pacquiao felt something wrong and he thought that it was a tactic against him. He said that he felt dizzy 30 minutes after the blood was taken from him. He said that his nape was very painful. The doctor advised him to drink a lot of water but because he’s in a diet and controlling the amount of food and water he intake in order not to exceed the weight limit, he just lay down and have a body massage. During the actual fight, he is weak and he knows that he will not be able to knock out Morales. Puno said that Morales said in an interview that he never felt any of Pacquiao’s power punches. Pacquiao said that Morales didn’t know that he is weak and that he didn’t have the strength to win.
The incident regarding the loss documents of Pacquiao was never investigated nor brought to the media here in the U.S. or other parts of the world. We can say that his issues were never heard because he was not that too famous at that time. Now that Pacquiao have established his name as the world’s greatest boxer, every little incident that happened to him matters like the issue on his the blood test refusal.
Whether it is true or not true that Morales camp really plotted this blood test incident, the bottom line here is that it proves that Pacquiao was just preventing this thing to happen again on his fight against Mayweather. Mayweather’s camp cannot deny that they don’t know this incident. They might have seen the hole in order to destroy Pacquiao. This may be the closest reason why they really insist the Olympic style random blood test done less than 30 days before the fight.
What is Mayweather’s camp main reason why they insist to take Pacquiao’s blood less than 30 days before the fight? If they are suspecting that Pacquiao is taking performance-enhancing drug, then Pacquiao would love to have his blood taken right after the fight. Is there any difference from having a blood test taken less than 30 days from having a blood test taken right after fight?
What do you think?
PACQUIAO-MAYWEATHER FIGHT UPDATE:

since Pacquiao agreed to the 14-day drug test he should have also counter demanded to make the boxing ring size 10 feet x 10 feet, so that he will not go dizzy on mayweather’s dancing lessons.
Blood Test after the fight makes no sense at all, Why? because the fight would already be over with, plus it leads to ample time to get rid of any drug if there are any. Blood doping is the most consistent way of cheating with PEDs specifically HGH, these drugs can be remove in to many ways. Random is the key, a random blood test can happen at anytime they may only test Pac 3 times, they may test him 6 times, the last test could come the day before the fight or it could come 20 days before the fight. There is no way to gage exactly when they are coming because it is random, and thats the key. The fact that Pac wants them to come at a specific time leads you to wonder. With the money these guys are making at the highest level of boxing, allows them to hire the worlds best doctors. A blood transfusion or urine to be swap with frozen urine is to easy, especially if you know when they are coming. Im not saying that anyone is right or wrong, cheating or scared, but If you agree to let them take blood why put demands on when they come. I understand Pac says it makes him weak but on HBO 24/7 he had a medical examination within 8-14 days of his fight, in which they drew blood and he went back to training the next day. If you watch the episode you want have any more questions. Let them do the random blood test so we all get a chance to see this fight. I understand Mayweather wanting fighters to be clean and not cheating, Fernando vargas found and caught using steriods, Shane Mosley indicted in the Balco scandal, Margarito getting caught for loading his gloves with liquid plastic (what is trying to kill someone). To many illegal things are happening in a sport thats thriving for credibility. Baseball is a prime example of cheating ruining a sport, whether is steriods, illegal substances on your hands that pitchers use, or corking a bat. Boxing is the sport that needs drug testing more than any other because it already brutal. They need to do random blood testing and check the gloves for illegal substances. Muhammad Ali is prime example of how brutal the sport can be, not including how many fighters have died from brutal head shots in the ring. Clean the sport up random blood test or whatever they need to do, THIS IS COMING FROM A FAN OF THE SPORT, NOT EITHER BOXER.
Pacquiao loves God and he have Gods favor.

Dont take too much pride. America’s contribtuion have both a postive and negative contribution to the world so dont boast too much cuz ur asz wasnt there to shoot nazis and save ppl around the world u were still inside your great great grandmoms womb.
True, america did contribute in ww2 , but it was America’s deal of obligation to help and in return America gains Political gains, resource, and tactical benefits. Dont blame the ppl in the world your president forced a Draft. Immigrants now are the real reason why America thrives- they work hard, most such as the Philippines work in real estates, medical field, and so on. Im not talkin in pride but loose your excessive America asz pride bein white is just 2% bein american u gotta contribute to be 100% if u can see most are Middle easterns and Asians if not then theyre probably the boss of your boss.
- your pride of saving, you werent there .. your the fat guy who cook steaks on july and cry like you were there. who do you think deserve to be americans. A middle eastern guy who finish college and majored on Law. He help 100s of client on their case and he pays his tax on time. or a typical guy like you who pays late, buys too many vanities, sit and watch baseball and rely on their color to be americans. Americans my friend are those who contribute to the greatness of this country not the guys like you who sits endulge himself on the greatness of this country, dissatisfied with ethnic culture in america, and wait for someone to actually change… right now there are ethnic groups joining the war to protect this country . You should be thankful they are on the boots of war instead of your spoiled sons, daughts, elders, or other relatives who sits drink, watch sports. fix heroshima, fix the missle launch in iraq, fix the ppl fuked by soldiers on their world military posts.
I guess you guess to lazy making products and letting China manufacture all your needs.
@ Pac vs Mayweather. Mayweather is stallin him. what will happen if mayweather loose? He loose his popularity, income, annd title. The difference between Pac and May is He fight for his country which like olymphic athletes exceed beyond their best to prove to their country, Mayweather has no one backing him but popularity and money. Ppl sayin pac cheats cuz Mayweather is an American.
Hey IDIOT Joe,
You did not even answer the question. What difference does it make if you take the test right after the fight. They can always make a rule that if you get caught before or even after they can discualify you from winning even if the fight is over.
Stupid comment. You waisted your time putting all those other comments you have. Stupid!!!
This is a comment towards Bob Carlson. Dude you seem like a very bitter person. I did not read every comment in here to see why you are so worked up, but you are wrong when you say all this crap about Americans being lazy. Well actually I think what you are trying to say is that white Americans are lazy. This country , just like every other country in the world is run by the wealthy. The US population is about 307 billion. The grand total of americans with a net worth of more than $500,000 is about 11 million. That is just a few verifiable numbers from Forbes online. Eleven million “fat lazy” Americans out of 307 billion, that doesn’t even equal 1%.
What do I think? Pac is a drug taking homo. His only loss came when he had to agree to random blood testing, which simply means he could not use drugs in fear of testing positive. It is not a strategy by Mayweather that is ridiculous. 10 years 1 loss when he agreed to testing that would stricken him from being able to use anything, and he says on the videos he felt like his punches were weak, no shit he didn’t stick a needle in his arm that time or however that particular drug is taken. No, No…. Regardless of what happens now the excuse is set up. Pac loses it will be because he is scurrred of needles and blood makes his power go way. lol. If he does not take them and they fight he only won because he took enhancement drugs. I think if you sit back and look at the big picture Pac’s hidden something or at least tried too. If I was mayweather and had a record like his and fame and money I would not chance having it blemished by some drug taking cheat. Mayweather has everything to lose. Pac has nothing. Mayweather should not even fight him or have fought Mosley because he cheated in the past but he did to prove a point. The point is Pac needs to step up to the plate leave the drugs in the locker and fight like a legit, clean not cheaten fucking man and then get his ass kicked and take up his political seat. God, why do people hate greatness, mayweather is great, Kobe is great…. just admit it and move the fuck on, jesus. Haten bitches.

all of you spectators need to keep it real stop crying and initiate this fight by requesting that manny take the drug test as he is asked to so this fight can get on the way i already have three bets on this fight. this is a fight that the world wants to see. Manny needs to man up and agree to this test because the people of the phillipines need to understand who they are routing a chump that want agree to the test or one that will agree to test and prove to his country that he is a true champion
