Floyd Mayweather on "Special Substance"

[HeroBando]

No different than people that claim to be religious then sin every chance they get when the spot light isn't on them. Like many have already stated, PED use is rampant in professional sports. Certain boxers shouldn't get a pass just because it fits a particular agenda.

There's that, but that's pretty common. At least you get off. This other one is pettier. You mix that with PED use and its toxic

That's correct, USADA is planning on putting a new policy into practice that would completely ban the use of intravenous saline solutions for athletes in competition. Coincidentally, this decision came about shortly after Floyd's su****ious use of a saline water for a meager 2 lb rehydration.

Their main incentive is to prevent athletes from using it to mask PED use.

"I don't know how closely you've followed our investigation into cycling, but you saw it used a lot in cycling. Because, putting a bag of saline over 50 ml, for example is the rule, would potentially mask or alter the blood testing that was done." - Travis Tygart, CEO of USADA

The policy already exists and is called the WADA code. That's why Floyd applied for a TUE and was granted by USADA. He had to provide a sample before and after the treatment to rule out the IV use for masking purposes. Having IVs and standard testing is the big issue. Having enhanced testing and especially testing before and after the treatment makes this not an issue.

USADA is now handling the drug testing for the UFC. They are using the WADA Code but allowed the use for IVs before October because the use of IVs in MMA is very common. Now they are teaching the UFC fighters and coaches how to properly rehydrate without IVs.

I'm not going to get into the ped stuff but his fight night weight is a sham for sure. Pac was 153 fight night and Floyd dwarfed him, yet his fanboys claim he's only 150.

Chiseled Floyd dwarfed him alright.

Nailed it. Spot on.

Floyd looked like he was 160/ 161 on fight night vs a shot pac. No doubt

Lets just have a steroid boxing division then a natural one, problem solved lol.

No, you gotta be a raging hypocrite to be doing PEDs and pointing fingers at others. If that doesn't bother you, fine, who would have guessed

Whether it bothers me or not is irrelevant, if you are a cheat you are a cheat. Whether you point a finger and you are cheating yourself or you stay quiet whilst cheating is still the same thing, because you are quiet or vocal about it doesn't mean you are a cheat doe. For me i don't trust any boxer period.

Isn't saline for rehydration purposes floyd doesn't need to rehydrate

[Cinci Champ]

well i guess this kinda scratches off another excuse of manny being blood drained while floyd wasnt tested lol

Another lance armstrong case in the making here.
No tmt or pbc fighters will take vada tests as well.
Berto got caught remember.

Wouldnt surprise me when and if floyd officially gets caught.
