Basically he says the NSAC rushed the medical requirements because they lost his initial blood test, and took blood a "few" times from him 2 days before the fight. Pac was dropping in weight (little food, barely any water) during this time and felt the blood test weakened him. 30 minutes after the blood was taken, the doctor told him to drink liquids to recover, but Pacquiao said he couldn't because he was reducing in weight at the time, so he just laid down. He said he became very dizzy.

He said his arms went numb during the fight! Morales claimed that Pac's punches weren't nearly as hard in the first fight, as they were in the rematch.

This interview was done 4 years ago in 2005.

Floyd is trying to weaken Manny, it's obvious now.

 

Yeah, if you can't understand Tagalog, probably not very useful. My translation is basically the cliff notes.

Interesting though isn't it?

 

How can we be sure that your translation is acurate and not something you've altered to make a case.

Maybe Manny was saying "I love steroids. Love them love them love them!!!!!"

I've donated blood before, and you do feel weaker after it for sure.

 

Mayweather's team already said it doesn't have to be done with the NSAC and that they're willing to work out the last day for a sample to be given, meaning it wouldn't be 5 days before the fight.

Besides, Pacquiao gave a shit load of excuses that night. Most of them lame. ::

 

It's very different to donate blood than to have less than a tablespoon taken for a test. It's nothing.

 

You don't think blood being drawn from you a few days before a fight when most fighters are trying to make weight wouldn't weaken you physically?

 

Schaefer already said it wouldn't be a few days before the fight, all they went is to have a blood test in between the 30 days. They're willing to work out the day, why isn't Manny? Not that I believe Manny is on something but if he is, the idea is that he would use it during those 30 days (Training days) then leave it a few days before the fight so that nothing comes after that. That's the assumption Schaefer is working on. Is that thaaat crazy?

 

Manny won't struggle making weight either.

Mayweather will also go through the same, you speak as if Pacquiao is the only one taking the test. Mayweather being a bit bigger should struggle more since he's more likely to struggle making weight.

 

Yeah Schaefer is trying to suck blood up to 5 days before the fight. ::

This is just a tactic to weaken and disrupt Manny in the critical cut days before the fight. I can't believe you don't see it.

 

donating blood? :atu:

it aint like the guy will be required to give his brother bobby a blood transfusion here.

the fight will happen. arum wants to boost his shitty jew fighters stock at pacquiao's expense, but he isnt dumb enough to mess up an 8 figure payday for top rank. foreman stinking it out will take the luster off the mayweather jr fight down the line, and fuck up the odds for me as well!

 

Mayweather struggles to make 147? :atu:

 

GREAT find. Now we know Manny's reasoning IS NOT bullshit.

 

I don't think so, but he's been there longer. He's certainly more likely to struggle than Manny. (Refering to your "You don't think blood being drawn from you a few days before a fight when most fighters are trying to make weight wouldn't weaken you physically?" comment)

Manny should accept and fight a weaker Floyd. :cheer:

 

I know you're only kidding, but I can confirm that Alabama's translation is consistent with others I've read.

 

I agree they should fight, but all this BS about "Blood being taken from you randomly before a fight won't hurt a fighter" is simply wrong. It does effect you.

Also wouldn't you say being weak would effect Manny more since he's a power punching fighter? Floyd's style is based on being negative.

 

I've not read a single thing whereby Schaefer has backed off from wanting RANDOM drug testing.

 

Your reputation on the forum is well know all around. Now we have no option but to recognize Alabama's translation as the truth and nothing more.

 

Look around. They want random testing but they're willing to work out the last possible day the random testing could be done. Meaning that Manny would be safe 5-8 days before the fight he won't have to give any blood. Isn't that fair enough? Even Roach agrees.

 

PBF should just take the fight and whoop Pacmans ass! Embarrass him with his brilliant skills!

Ugh wishful thinking :(

 

His reflexes (Main strenght) would be way slower, so I'm not sure. Either way, NO. I don't think having them take less than a TABLESPOON of blood 8 days or more before the fight will weaken them. They'll keep eating, drinking, sleeping and be fine. Wouldn't all olympic athletes be complaining by now if that was the case? It's just a tablespoon. ::

I just want to see the fight.

 

Do you only want Floyd to win because Pac messed up your hero Miguel Cotto?

 

I think so. He's certainly not in love with Floyd. ::

 

Floyd has been through the Olympics before so maybe he is more used to fighting with sapped strength. Pacquiao is a guy who really suffers when he lacks nutrition (two of his three losses can be attributed to this).

In the end, I want to see the fight too, but I don't want Pac fighting in there with numb arms.

 

::::::

Dude, this is what they'll take out of poor Manny 8 days before the fight.



Numb arms. ::

 

Shut the fuck up already seriously. Pacquiao lost more blood from the cut in the fight, than he did from the bloodtest. Every expert already explained the amount of blood taken doesn´t matter and is re-produced by the body within an hour. It´s not a fuckin blood donation. It´s been posted here a dozen times, and yet you ride on this shit forever. It´s like talking to a three year old. Actually you should be banned for being an annoying argument resistant clown.

 

Whatever you say dick-head.

 

Hey man, relax. It's just a discussion about a boxing match, not your family or religious beliefs. ::
