I am not saying sick as a dog and not able to move but you just do not feel 100%. There I can give Pacquiao the benefit of the doubt.

Yes, understood, but the same holds true for both fighters. It's a level playing field in more ways than one, but your point is a good one.
EXACTLY.

So, did I just read a possible excuse that Pacman might just NOT want to get the blood removed because he "FEELS" like it might weaken him? If it's physiological, then fine, be it, I can come to turns that he's scared, I mean, he has an issue mentally.

Man, If I was given the oppurtunity to prove my "pound for pound" greatness for $40 Mil, AND wear bigger gloves(my face will be fine)....WHAT...take all the blood you need. I have a point to prove.

If I remember correctly, during negotiations, Floyd agree'd to ring size, gloves and ridiculous weight stipulations, but, manny wouldnt agree to the blood tests.

Come on........

For 25 million, Draculita can suck me dry.
