Why did Floyd need an IV to rehydrate if he barely cuts any weight?

[GhostofDempsey]

We don't know what his weight was on fight night because he refused to get on the scale. A fighter of his caliber and experience does not dehydrate on the even of the biggest fight of his life. He is/was seasoned enough to know exactly how much weight to cut during training camp. He didn't over-train and he didn't dehydrate to the point where a couple of Gatorades couldn't have fixed him right up. The fact that he needed an exception that was granted three weeks after the fight tells me all I need to know about Floyd, the USADA and NSAC.

Please be civilized in this thread. I am just asking this question, floyd is one of my favorite fighters of all time and i wouldnt want him to be found out as a PED user.

I just have a question, why did floyd need 750 Ml of saline if he made the weight easily? he was 146 at the weigh in proving he cut an extra pound below the weight, and 149 on fight night. Why did he even need an IV?

Wouldnt he put on a good amount of weight if he was so drained that he need an IV? or am i missing something?

Why do those big NFL linemen get IV's during halftime? Why did Stiverne go to the hospital after the Wilder fight for dehydration? It took Floyd 6 hours to pee before he got the IV. And he still was only able to provide a partial sample.

I think most of y'all have never done any physical activity in your life

He said he was 149 after eating alot in a fighthype interview, im too lazy to link the vid though.

Why isnt he gaining a substantial amount of water weight then if hes so dehydrated? I work out almost daily by the way.

We don't need a thread for every question related to Floyd's IV

I don't take his word for anything. He was visibly and considerably larger than Pac during and after fight.

just when we thought we had got rest from the same redundant threads.... here we go again... im gonna start a thread debating who ruined the first negotiations team pac or team Floyd... fk it

Yeah, in hindsight a ped user like Floid should not be taken seriously about testing.
So ****** why people keep repeating this nonsense.
Well, sane people normally change their views after a few months or so and consider things in perspective.
Not in this case after six years. Lawsuit took place. They prove nothing.
And idiots still repeat this garbage. As if it still matters when the guy who asked for it is the Lance Armstrong of boixng.
Does that even make sense?

149 after eating a lot? Floyd was at least 155 in that fight.

Still doesn't matter. He won because he found a way to neutralise Pac's offensive arsenal. He was backing up, hugging, running out of the way and countering. And that won him the fight, even though it was ugly as f**k.

Who cares?
