How would the amount of oxygen absorbed by cells be different in an athlete who is blood doping, compared to a normal athlete?

When blood doping, it creates more red blood cells which carry oxygen to generally create ATP so in that case there would be more oxygen absorbed by a athlete blood doping than a athlete that is not due to the fact of the increase of red blood cells.
