    Notice the double speak. 'He didn't do anything that violated the WADA banned substances list'.

    The IV isn't' a banned substance its banned method. Dont think that his parsing of words was a accident.

      Did you not hear the part where he says, 'Mr. Mayweather has done nothing wrong.' ??

        And how does he know that without an investigation? All this is proving is that much like baseball this will take congress and the FBI.

          Maybe you should ask Bennett yourself? What we do know is that they cleared Mr. Mayweather of any wrongdoing.

            IV use is not prohibited by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.

            USADA bans IV use but granted Mayweather an exemption.

            No rules were broken, no punishment will come.

            Mayweather is TBE, no fighter has ever accomplished what he has. He embarrassed Pac, he whipped everyone put in front of him.

              MLB also turned a blind eye. I'm going it when congress gets involved in this Bennet just sealed boxing's death warrant by doing the same **** MLB did.

                Red-flag, only blind biased Floyd fans believe its nothing.
                A lot more common in combat sports than you think. MMA fighters talking about the upcoming ban. It's not banned yet.

                  WADA specifically sites the encouraged risk with the use of IVs for re-hydration in weight classification sports in it reasoning for banning the method.

                  Well jeez if your wealth of high school and college sports experience says so.... lol

                  Look at MMA: UFC fighters have been using IV's to rehydrate for years now. An IV ban is something USADA has only recently put into place.

                    Only absolute fools think or believe Congress is going to get involved. Keep in mind USADA also cleared Mayweather and they are the official anti-doping agency of the United States, sponsored by the United States gov.

                      Exactly. I have to laugh at everyone calling for punishment. The NSAC allows IV use and USADA gave Floyd an exemption. There's nothing to investigate, it's an open and shut case.
