DR. PINEDA ARRIVES IN GENSAN. PACQUIAO TO BE TESTED THIS AFTERNOON


PhilBoxing.com


Dr. Alex Pineda of the Philippine Olympic Committee who is the only doctor accredited by the World Anti Doping Agency to test athletes has arrived in General Santos City, hometown of boxing hero Manny Pacquiao.

Pacquiao’s adviser Michael Koncz informed us about the arrival of Dr. Pineda and said he would conduct the urine test on Pacquiao this afternoon as directed by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

Pacquiao was up early morning meeting with some of his political supporters apparently discussing his bid for a congressional seat in Sarangani in the May 2010 elections.

Pacquiao and his family will celebrate the birthday of his eldest daughter Mary Divine Grace later today which was the reason for his requesting Dr. Pineda to fly to GenSan to conduct the urine test within the 48 hour period set down by the chairwoman of the Nevada State Athletic Commission Pat Lundvall.

Meantime, contrary to claims that Pacquiao had taken a blood test some 14 days before his fight with Britain’s Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton last May 2, respected boxing writer Rick Reeno of boxingscene.com has punched holes in the claim of Golden Boy Promotions based on verified documents that showed the blood test on Pacquiao was done 24 days before the fight.
