    painkiller abuse is illegal.
    Floyd doesn't abuse it, uses it for his fight. There you go,

                  makes sense. but dont you think that his punching performance is enhanced since he can keep punching without feeling any pressure on his hands?

                  picture dewey cox when he was lifting and rolling cars over after he took pcp.

                    Nevada and painkiller abuse:

                    Officials urge action on painkiller abuse

                    State legislators and regulators Monday called the Sun’s reports about the startling rise in the use of narcotic painkillers in Nevada a wake-up call to improve patient care in the state.

                    * Part 1: The painful truth about Nevada (7-6-2008)
                    * Part 2: Rising use of painkillers taking deadly toll (7-7-2008)
                    * Part 3: Officials urge action on painkiller abuse (7-8-2008)

                    “Definitely Nevada is overusing narcotics,” said Assemblywoman Sheila Leslie, D-Reno, who leads the legislative committee on health care. “How could you not come to that conclusion?”

                    Leslie said she will work with Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto to draft legislation to address the issue during the 2009 legislative session.

                    The Sun’s analysis of Drug Enforcement Administration data showed that Nevadans are the No. 1 users of hydrocodone — the primary ingredient in the brand-name drugs Vicodin and Lortab — and ranked fourth for per capita use of methadone, morphine and oxycodone, the primary ingredient in the painkiller OxyContin.

                    The skyrocketing rate of narcotics use — methadone use was up 12-fold in a decade — has been accompanied by a startling trend: The number of fatal overdoses in Clark County involving narcotic painkillers is now greater than those involving street drugs and surpasses the number of people killed by firearms.

                    “Shocking,” Leslie said of the rising prescription drug death toll. “I don’t think that’s well-known.”

                      These aren't illegal depending on how and where you use it.

                      This is a bit old. HBO did a short story on Floyd's hands before the first Castillo match, and mentioned Floyd had used this before to numb his hands. Obviously if HBO knew about it, Floyd was in no trouble because he wasn't using it in a state where it's illegal.

                      By the way, this was all before he met Rafael Garcia who has helped his hand problems substantially since that time, which even HBO stated.
                      __

                      This is nothing like the current situation at hand though; and if an explanation is needed for it than certain people need help.
