Even if the hydration method was illegal, I think you are being dramatic here.
Technically it was when he did it, that's why he had to apply for an exception, and they granted it two weeks after he did it. Sketchy AF. The bigger question is whether it was necessary to use an IV to rehydrate to begin with. Most doctors and fitness experts will tell you he could have rehydrated with a Pedialyte drink. A fighter with that much experience, who also claims he only needs to lose about 5 - 8 pounds to make weight, doesn't allow themselves to be that seriously dehydrated on the eve of their biggest fight ever.
Replacing electrolytes and b-vitamins, does not compared to performance enhancing drugs. Why are you being all dramatic?
Mayweather Junior's claim that he only needed to lose few pounds, are not just claims. He proved all of this throughout his whole career, making weight then 'Weighing in very close to the weight limit even on fight night'.
