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

Will read later.

Floyd Mayweather received banned IV fluids before Pacquiao fight

wahaha


"According to Mayweather’s medical team, the fighter was given two different vitamin mixes to treat dehydration. While the injections did not include any banned substances, IVs are still banned under WADA guidelines because they can be used to “dilute or mask the presence of another substance,” Hauser explains"

I don't know how the IV stuff doesn't raise everyone's eyebrows to some degree.
If the article didn't have a name attached, it was just 'Fighter A', i'd take a guess that the whole of BS would be calling it shady.

People talk about drug testing with importance, yet when stuff comes to light they turn their cheek dependant on who the fighter is.
The same happened on here with Peterson. It was at a stage when most on here where hammering home the need for better testing, yet when Peterson was caught out, the same guys laughed it off...'so what, who cares'.

As for USADA, as the experts say...it comes across as inept.

well Pacquiao swam in the same salt and said it healed his shoulder

And he was busted for 3 failed drug tests before his fight with Ortiz. MaxBoxing had al the documents on their site and floyd paid them to take them down and shut the mouth of USADA. Floyd is a fraud, that's non debatable.

Yeah but you don't drink salt water, it'll dehydrate you..

[maguirre]

Level playing field doe.

All these fishy things will come out when he retires, mark my word.

[YOU WILL LOSE]

yes

and hes conveniently retiring right after usada banned the practice

[-Hyperion-]

It shouldn't be interpreted as anything besides whst I said. Which is "I didn't have to read it." If u then assumed I didn't then the fault blows with u and your reading comprehension skills

Since Floyd's lawyer is questioning people's reading skills(Floyd must have **** his pants when he was in a room with this erudite):

Reading comprehension fail. Why is the bolded relevant? Hauser isn't questioning that the tests were high, he is questioning the consistency of it's low level and what it could imply backed up by the commentary of experts.

I then obviously use a bit of hyperbole to question the guy's reading comprehension of the point Hauser is trying to make, spelling it out for him

No acknowledgement of the complete misinterpratation of Hauser's intent, now just questions the CIR claim solely, and gives out the gem in bold.

Again, having to spell out the point Hauser is bringing up. No transparency makes USADA questionable, including their use of CIR, when only summaries are provided to the athletic comissions.


Then the guy gets offended when I keep making it clear that he didn't really read the article...if you speed read like a 5 year old and have the floyd glasses on, you didn't really read. Then uses typical 5 year old arguments to keep dodging the question of a huge red flag...ignore, focus on something else wah wah
