I will agree that the afraid of needles thing was crap, but it also wasn't as big of an issue as it was made out to be. It had more to do with they just wasn't going to bow down to PBF's ridiculous demands and take Olympic style blood tests. Why should he have when that is not required in boxing? That's ridiculous to have some fighter accuse another of PED's with absolutely no shred of evidence and then demand he take a blood test that is not even mandatory. It was just PBF's way of dodging the fight because he knew they wouldn't agree to it. By the way, Pac's camp said they would have given blood right after the fight, but that wasn't good enough for PBF.
