LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

is that suppose to hurt my feelings?

you must not know who i am:

I SUPPORT PED USE IN SPORTS.

THEY ARE ALREADY TAKE IT YOU MORON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me bringing up lidocaine is in response to your numbing agent hypocrisy post. THEY BOTH TOOK NUMBING AGENTS. its all semantics.

Floyd hired alex ariza after years of accusing pac of ped use. BOTH FANBASES HAVE NO LEG TO STAND ON WHEN IT COMES TO PEDS.

one numbs the area the shot is introduced, the other your entire body and makes you invulnerable to feel pain...you call that semantics, I call that a complete bull**** drug that needs to be banned. A boxer who can't fell pain throughout his body, because a shot is ridiculous....spin it anyway you want....but the article is bull****. Call it both ways Mr. Hauser or STFU.

Like it's been said plenty of times before. Floyd is in hard training and in shape long before he starts the testing in his fights.

Here's a question. Did USADA request a sample of what Floyd used in the IV? I'm guessing no, they must have just taken his word for it and gave him the TUE.

Mayweather gave urine on March 13, 18, 19 and 28, April 2, 10, 15, 21 and 27 and May 1 and 2. He gave blood samples on March 13, 18 and 28, April 2, 10, 15 and 21 and May 2.

Paquiao gave urine on March 14, 17, 23 and 24, April 1, 9, 16, 22 and 27 and May 1 and 2. Pacquiao gave blood samples on March 14, 17 and 24, April 1, 9, 16 and 22 and May 2.

Mayweather also applied for, and was given, a the****utic use exemption (TUE) for rehydration purposes after the May 1 weigh-in. He took two separate mixes. The first was a mixture of 250 ml of saline and multi-vitamins. The second was a 500 ml mixuture of saline and Vitamin C. He was urine tested both before and after taking the solutions.

Nevada rules permit the mixes that Mayweather took, but because USADA was overseeing the testing he applied for and was granted the TUE for them.

All tests came back negative.

Didn't answer the question. The TUE was requested 19 days after the administration in his home. Do you honestly think USADA was able to test the contents of that IV?

No reason to dodge when you can just have them thrown out right?

no reason to dodge them when you are allowed to break the rules and flush your system right before a fight. floyd fans the crusaders of stopping PED use now claiming it's ok that we don't know what was in floyd's system right before a fight. what hypocrites. if they were consistent they would say this is very su****ious, why did he flush his system? what was he hiding? was he really dehydrated when they are the ones who constantly say he walks around at 150? so many contradictions

Collection agents went to Mayweather’s Las Vegas home to conduct a random unannounced drug test.

The collection agents found evidence of an IV being administered to Mayweather. Bob Bennett, the executive director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, which had jurisdiction over the fight, says that USADA did not tell the commission whether the IV was actually being administered when the agents arrived. USADA did later advise the NSAC that Mayweather’s medical team told its agents that the IV was administered to address concerns related to dehydration.

Mayweather’s medical team also told the collection agents that the IV consisted of two separate mixes. The first was a mixture of 250 milliliters of saline and multi-vitamins. The second was a 500-milliliter mixture of saline and Vitamin C. Seven hundred and fifty milliliters equals 25.361 ounces, an amount equal to roughly 16 percent of the blood normally present in an average adult male.

The mixes themselves are not prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), which sets the standards that USADA purports to follow. However, their intravenous administration is prohibited by WADA.

More specifically, the 2015 WADA “Prohibited Substances and Methods List” states, “Intravenous infusions and/or injections of more than 50 ml per 6 hour period are prohibited except for those legitimately received in the course of hospital admissions, surgical procedures, or clinical investigations.”

This prohibition is in effect at all times that the athlete is subject to testing. It exists because, in addition to being administered for the purpose of adding specific substances to a person’s body, an IV infusion can dilute or mask the presence of another substance that is already in the recipient’s system or might be added to it in the near future.

What happened next with regard to Mayweather is extremely troubling.


The guy has Usada in his back pocket and is allowed to,do,what he wants and they will cover up for him it's clear as day

I was asking if they took and tested the solutions though. In the article it says Mayweathers medical team told the USADA agent what they had administered. We already know he took the IV which is not allowed but they gave him a TUE after the fact for a reason we don't know.

He got tested before taking the solution and immediately after taking it.

Mayweather***8217;s testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio for the April 3, 2013, sample was 0.80. His testosterone-to-epitestosterone ratio for the Aug. 18, 2011, sample was 0.69.

Is this checkmate?
