The greatest pound for pound fighter in the World Manny Pacquiao has softened his stance and now will agree to blood testing up to 14 days before a fight with Floyd Mayweather. Now the question is, will “the one and lonely” Mayweather accept these rules or will he change again and back out of the Pacman fight one more time.
Where the last fight was canceled, it was because Mayweather wanted a 14 day cut-off on the blood tests and Manny wanted a 24 days cut-off. But Pacman has softened his stance and here is why,
“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,” Pacquiao said and continued, 
“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.” He has also agreed to take a blood test immediately after the fight.
“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.”
Pacquiao has not yet watched Mayweather’s domination of Shane Mosley, but plans to watch the fight very soon. He also agreed to take a blood test immediately after the fight was over.
Nothing is set in stone. The next time the two fighters meet at the negotiating table, Mayweather might issue a demand for a smaller cut-off date or he might even make a demand for the testing to continue until the fight.
