While speaking with Manny Pacquiao in his home in General Santos City Philippines. Manny Pacquiao made this Official Statement for his website http://mpboxing.com .

I AM WILLING TO TAKE BLOOD TESTS, JUST NOT THE DAY OF THE FIGHT.

I am willing to help the sport for the future of the sport. I do not want to see anyone cheat or cheat this sport. For that reason I am willing to consider taking blood as close as 14 days prior to the fight, as long as, my opponent does the same, and it is not a lot of blood, just enough to test.
I do not want anyone having an unfair advantage where someone may get hurt. I am willing to do my part to help this sport out.

When asked what did he think about the fight? Manny Pacquiao replied, "I have not seen the fight yet."

Manny Pacquiao is campaigning for Congressman during this time in his life, but we will keep you updated on further progress for his next upcoming fight.

Manny Pacquiao also stated, he is willing to take blood immediately after the fight in his locker room "No problem." Manny just does not want to take blood right before the fight, as he feels that may hurt the fighter, if not physically, maybe mentally.

And I still don't get how the majority on here calls out Pac but nothing about PBF demanding this when no other fights do it. I think Pac not doing it is equally as sketchy as PBF demanding it.

What could he use in his body that would help him in the fight that wouldn't show up in a blood test the night after the fight.

I haven't seen that anywhere.

This thread and threads like it on other sites are proof that the bickering over drug-testing is just making this fight bigger and bigger.
For the next three or four months whenever the networks don't have other fights going on articles more articles about the Pac/Mayweather negotiations will pop up.
