And by the way...wtf is a retroactive waiver? How is that legal in any fashion? It's a "just in case you get popped for something" look the other way card.Comment

People's problem i gather, is that he needed approval from Neveda..which he never got. The approval from USADA (which they weren't even entitled to issue) was requested and approved 18/19 days after the fight.
Other issues are, why was he was allowed the IV (a) at home and not at a medical center (b) in such an large amount.
These are issues Neveda aren't happy with.
The quantity in which the IV was issued was way over the legal amount. It's illegal as when given by IV in that amount, it can be used as a masking agent for other substances in, or soon to be out in, the body.
Floyd said in his video that he was dehydrated. People doubt that, as he was only 3.5lbs over the weight limit at the 2 week weigh-in.
Even if he was in the need of rehydration..why via IV, when there are better methods available. And why in such an high amount..way over the legal limit.
People also have a problem with how the USADA went about the whole situation. Nevada are also un-happy and have told USADA never to repeat what they did.
It's fair enough to raise questions in my opinion.Comment

Taking away the debilitating factor doesn't improve performance? The whole point of drugs like Toradol are to help people do things they wouldn't be able to/find hard to do without it, that's performance enhancing.Comment
