Madigan looked into getting the blood work done in Georgia but refused to pay $400 dollars to get the blood work done.

“Khunpon knew since Monday and never called to tell me that I needed to get more up to date blood work done. In Ohio I could have got my blood work done for $69 bucks. Khunpon tells me to run down to this hospital and get it done” said Madigan. “I call this place and they were going to charge me $399 dollars for my blood work. I was only making $800 to fight and $300 to win. I was not paying $400 dollars for blood work that he knew I had to get done on Monday and I could have got it done in Ohio for $69 so there will be no fight tonight. Sorry to all my friends and family.”

Madigan is from Ohio and fought a boxing match there last week. His blood work was good for the Ohio athletic commission.
