The question remains if ortiz filled out an exemption for the medication. If he did not is he able to so retrospectively?
Anyone know?Comment

Mayweather got permission retrospectively from USADA, but he has a million times more pull than Ortiz.
I am so disappointed as an Ortiz fan. If he didn't get an exemption, and the implication is that he didn't, he is toast.Comment

You get it. They had this excuse on tap if they came up positive. But but but it's blood pressure medicine. They got it straight from Povetkin's playbook. But but but it's heart medicine I've been taking all my life.Therein lies the problem.
If asked for a TUE for these substances, VADA would have said, "No, here's a list of approved medications for blood pressure that you can take."
And Team Ortiz would have answered, "But, but, those don't enhance performance or mask other PEDs."
The heavyweights are diiiirty.Comment

Yes, I was being sarcastic with that first part. Luis definitely doesn't look like a roider to me.
I like Ortiz. I wish he had disclosed the scripComment

This is some basic sh^t. If you get ost you are required to disclose any prescription medicine you are on. If you don't disclose it there is a reason you're not disclosing it besides the "I forgot" reason.Comment
