        I'm sure we would all agree if Manny said no fight unless it's Olympic style and Manny paid for Olympic style that he would be suspect for a side meth.

          how so? pac is broke remember? that's why he's still fighting.

          floyd on the other hand, flashes and shows off how much he has every chance he gets.

          and this whole IV thing is shady ass hell yet you're justifying it just because USADA says floyd didnt violate the terms, even though you know it's shady!

          but you wanna hang pac up just because he asked for a cut off, even though he explained his reasons as to why he wants a cut off.

            2 quotes here.

            Mr. Mayweather provided partial urine samples to USADA both prior to and following the infusion. The urine provided by Mr. Mayweather on May 1, 2015, was subsequently tested and has been reported by the World Anti-Doping Agency accredited laboratory as negative.

            And:

            Mr. Mayweather was never outside the physical
            presence of the USADA DCO from long before the IV was administered until well after administration when the urine sample collection process was complete.

              1-When did I hang Manny

              2-Why did the cut off demand change after Jmm knocked him out?

              3-I mentioned nothing of USADA SAYING ANYTHING..I said IV's are perfectly legal in Nevada as Oscar took one before the Pacquiao fight

              4-How is something legal shady?

                No, there's nothing fishy about that. That is how retroactive TUEs work. The application process takes time. Medical information has to be gathered, lawyers are consulted to file the paperwork correctly and argue the case of the athlete, etc. When the paramedics are called and the water & vitamins are given, the application for retroactive TUE isn't expected to be filed the next day. USADA is going to conduct their own investigation, interview witnesses, including the USADA DCO that spent the entire day with Mayweather, witnessed his condition, witnessed the administering of the IV, etc. Mayweather's medical and legal team are going to interview witnesses, analyze the medical information, make sure everything is filled out correctly, etc.

                Everything was submitted within the acceptable time frame of USADA.




                NAC director plainly stated that Mayweather did nothing wrong, but that NAC was upset that USADA didn't consult them. From USADA's position, there was nothing to consult NAC about because the IV was legal under NAC rules. NAC's ego was bruised by the way HBO's hitman Thomas Hauser presented things in his hit piece and the director tried to save face, but he never said anything fishy was going on. He simply said that USADA should have informed him of what was going on, which is debatable since NAC rules didn't prohibit the IV to begin with.




                Because medical information is typically kept quiet until the findings are ready to be released. IV was legal in Nevada, but not legal under USADA unless USADA determined it was for legitimate medical reasons. USADA determiend it was for legitimate medical reasons. Everything was on the up and up.
                So you're telling me that every TUE takes 3 weeks to be asked. BS.

                The NASC also questioned not only the fact that USADA granted this IV without notification, but that is was performed on Mayweather's home instead of a medical facility.

                    Floyd for sure would not have had it allowed .
                    It wasn't up to Floyd.

                    IV was legal under NAC rules.

                    To ensure there wasn't IV abuse, Floyd & Pac voluntarily agreed to hire USADA to determine if any IV use was for legitimate medical purposes.

                    USADA followed Floyd around all day, was there when the medics were called, were there when the IV was administered, and made Floyd give a urine sample both immediately before the IV and immediately after the IV. Floyd's team filled out the appropriate paperwork for when an IV is unexpectedly needed for a legitimate medical purpose, USADA conducted their own investigation, and determined the application was valid.

                    There was only any controversy because a paid HBO operative authored a hit piece to smear Showtime's top fighter.

                      USADA was there watching the IV be given. They knew an application was forthcoming. The application was submitted within the allowable time frame. There's nothing controversial about the paperwork being submitted three weeks later. USADA needs time to conduct their own investigation and Mayweather's lawyers and doctors need time to gather their own information and thoroughly argue their case.


                      The NASC also questioned not only the fact that USADA granted this IV without notification, but that is was performed on Mayweather's home instead of a medical facility.
                      An ambulance was called. The paramedic made the determination to administer the IV on site rather than delay. If Mayweather was dehydrated, it wouldn't have made sense to bring him to a hospital before administering the IV as that would simply delay treating his condition.

                      It's really none of NAC's business where it was performed considering it was 100% legal under NAC rules. Mayweather only needed a TUE to remain USADA compliant.
