Comments Thread For: Mayweather Under Hot Fire Over USADA/IV Scandal

[BattlingNelson]

There are different types of steroids...depots that are long lasting (1/2 life of 2 weeks and still traceable after a month). Depot shots are not used by athletes who get tested obviously. Then there are water based steroids which are fast acting (bodybuilders will use them twice a day). These are thing that if you need supporting evidence you can research...I can't be bother to educate you.

As for why would he'd need an IV...well only one reason for that. To dilute the concentrations of drug in his blood. At his size he has maybe 3.75 litres of blood in his body. 750 ml of saline masks his blood test. It was how lance Armstrong passed all his tests. It's not just testosterone...EPO is the drug that boosts cardio endurance off the charts. He likely used lots of drugs.

Lots of reading to be had but you have to read it.

In situations where EPO tests on recently dosed athletes were unavoidable, team doctors also could have injected saline, or salt water, to dilute a rider's blood and quickly drive down hematocrit. This kind of obfuscating saline injection was a common practice for Armstrong and his team, according to the USADA report.

He could have taken IV's because of massive dehydration due to difficulty making weight.

bu bu bu he a small welterweight doe!!!!!!

[SterlingStained]

this guy has been at welterweight for 10 years ( since 2005 vs past prime (what else is new with floyd?) version of sharmba mitchell) and suddenly during the biggest fight of his career (floyd's own words) he forgets how to rehydrate and has to perform an iv transfusion that is deemed illegal by WADA?

A terrible situation for the floydstans. Either they say he did IV's to mask PED's or because he was dehydrated. The second option makes their prime excuse for fighting GGG invalid.

That doesn't count doe lol, talk about having fans up against the ropes!
It's sad that this will very likely get brushed under the carpet without any proper investigation, the fact USADA are the ones taking the tests etc doesn't help either.

Floyd Mayweather is bad for boxing he has made a mockery of the sport, its good to see him get exposed but its bad to see how these boxing officials will likely do anything they can to protect his name.
There will be no law-suit because that will entail a full investigation and there's the damn pity!

Even if no further investigation is done immediately, it's already in the public court of opinion, and it will pretty much be pop culture facts in boxing forever. Eventually, there may be a follow up investigation like a 20/20 special or Real Sports style story to get the facts out. The damage has been done.

Floyd is part of the corrupt system, but the Floyd fans continue with the stupid in denial race paranoia narrative like he is the victim, how can the man be the victim when he keeps getting decisions go his way. When he is allowed to fight before going to prison, where he gets a light sentence, where he gets to change a guys gloves last minute, where his opponent Pacquiao gets denied his pain meds after 3 weeks early submitting a form, but they denied him last minute for them. Where Floyd is allowed to openly admit to having a snitch or mole in Pacs came who purposely yanked on his right arm for him.

Floyd given the IV was fishy, USADA teamed up with UFC and guess what the director of the testing Jeff Novisky or whatever was on Joe Rogan saying they banned IV's because fighters can use it to cheat and use PEDS. But Floyd is allowed without a question yet they yank Pacs pain shot, they wanted Floyd to have every advantage in that fight, But NSAC or VEGAS MGM screwed up, they should have gave the decision to Pacquiao if PAc won he would continue to fight and even if he lost he would generate more money than Floyd, the fans got what they wanted and now Floyd isnt even going to break 500 thouand buys. His drawing power has died because they only wanted him to fight Pac and it was a let down.

If Pac won that decision nobody would be mad even how boring it was and Pac would have been a huge mega global icon beloved beating the bad guy, and his next ppv would be well over a million buys even if it was a scrub like Berto, MGM and VEGAS gave Floyd the decision but it was not a worthy one given how nobody cares that this is Floyds last fight.

i don't know anything about this subject.

what's the significance of floyd's testosterone-epitestosterone ratio being 0.69 in 2011 and 0.80 in 2013?

His low T/E ratios suggest he's been covering up synthetic testosterone usage..

That's foul but you are someone that called a poster a "black power flowmo" and called me a "black power Israelite" so please stop acting like you're offended by Pigeons post.
