Here's Where All The Floyd Cheat Theories Fail

[koolkc107]

I'm a Floyd Mayweather Jr fan myself. However, I'm more amazed at the irony that I believe every elite level boxer, including Floyd Mayweather Jr himself consumed drugs (and I don't really care if he and everyone did for that matter). That's just my opinion though! I don't believe in a 'clean athlete' in the 21st century.

See, we differ there.

I think there is such a thing as a clean athlete and I think Floyd is likely one of them.

Truth is, with advances in sports medicine and nutrition, you have to be pretty ****** to cheat.

For almost everything you can do illegally, there is a substance you can take or method you can use that gets the same result legally.

I think athletes with the financial ability now take advantage of those legal methods, a lot more than poorer or less informed ones do.

I didn't mention anything about legal or illegal. Instead, my point was addressing the notion that there are any 100% 'clean' athletes today at the elite level of any athletic sport that is competitive. Especially at the level of boxing. In the end, if a performance enhancing drug is legal but provides the same benefits as an illegal performance enhancing drug if consumed, then does consuming the legal drug make one any more 'clean' than consuming the illegal drug? Not to me!

'Clean' athletes are by definition, void of anything that artificially enhances them. In the 21st century, it is highly unlikely that any elite athlete falls under that category.

In the 22nd century, who knows? We may have half human - half cybernetic athletes competing? We must live with the times!

nobody can give a legitimate reason as to why Floyd, a guy who is always on weight and doesn't cut, suddenly needed an emergency iv.

Then our definitions of "clean" differ.

Vitamins not produced by the athlete's own body fit your description of illegal enhancers.

But, athletes now have access to legal supplements, hyperbaric chambers, stem cells, all sorts of legal things (depending on the sport) than can either help recovery from an injury or help performance.

As long as these substances are not harmful or banned, I say more power to the athlete that finds something that works for them.

He trained a bit too hard for what he may have seen as a career defining fight and was not hydrating properly?

a significant weight cut or ped use are the 2 obvious ones.

There's video evidence of him being dehydrated before, so all of the talk about weight is useless.
