Cmon ken we all read the article. Hauser makes excellent points and raises some very thought provoking questions. but he makes his argument in part one on fighter associated with bob's 2 biggest adversaries-schaeffer and haymon.Comment

Yes, when he spoke. It's not that part that I noticed. It's his facial expression as the question is being asked. Did you notice how it changed? Man...I'm going with my instinct on this one. Could be wrong but hey.Comment

Floyd and USADA tried to stop a motion from Pacquiao's lawyers to have Floyd's USADA test records released and they were successful. Why would USADA stopped this unless they had something to hide? Do you think its possible the rumors Floyd failed the drug test is true otherwise why not show it to the world? I thought he wants to clean the sport.Comment

i'm not a lawyer, but i am in business. i've been sued (nothing came from it.)
at the very least pacquiao and his people would be entitled to compensation for their time and money (all of this is done through lawyers, and in this case top flight ones.) if you're manny you're at the very least going to countersue for triple the costs of your legal defenses. that's common practice. the undisclosed settlement would surely include at least that much in compensatory damages.
you wouldn't just "drop" something like this. you'd go through hell to get to the stage where you're putting pressure on mayweather to retract his statements. at the very least you'd look to make things even, as the process would invariably costs you tens of thousands of dollars [at the very least. if the process gets drawn out it could easily enter six or even seven figures. that's not chump change to anybody.]Comment

Haven't you heard, Dean? I'm a Floyd stan who went too hard on Manny when he was BS'ing the public back in 09/10. I could easily state the same thing you just said...I just didn't see it that way. IDK, I saw something totally different in his face...like, "I sure hope know one smells the load I just dropped in my boxers."Comment

Putting GBP's antics to one side, the most important issue arising out of this article is whether or not USADA did in fact serve a waiver to Floyd on three occasions in the aftermath of positive drug tests.
And if they did, what were the exceptional circumstances which led them to do so. If there's significant resistance to this matter being addressed, then it's very su****ious.
USADA has a huge reputation. HUGE. If it became discovered that they published false information that Floyd Mayweather tested negative, when instead he tested positive, that would cause waves across the world. USADA's reputation goes way beyond boxing. USADA's whole crusade against Lance Armstrong and others would come tumbling down and their organization would be dead shortly afterwards.
Don't believe the hype that USADA would tarnish their long-standing reputation not just once, but more than 3 times, JUST for Floyd Mayweather. LOL. A waiver? LOL. Why couldn't Lance Armstrong payoff USADA from ruining him then? Lance had way way way more to lose than Floyd. And USADA has been trying to get Lance (a wealthy and highly regarded white athlete) for yeeeeears.Comment

It was likely Floyd was using a substance that falls under the "Therapuedic Use Exemption" If an otherwise banned substance is being used to treat or prevent an illness and is cleared with USADA prior to the "event", in this case the fight, the fighter is granted the "TUE" waiver.
You would think that this would be for the lidocaine Floyd uses but it's not banned by NSAC or USADA; nor is hydrocodone, which I also believed Floyd was being rumored to be using.
So exactly what substance he may have tested positive for is the most intriguing part of this article, and it fails to deliver that information unfortunately.Comment
