    4) No report ever seen, no mention of Floyd's condition or why he needed to take the IV
    5)If Floyd claims he fights at 150lbs in the ring, there is zero chance he could even be slightly dehydrated considering he just weighed in at 147lbs.
    For him to so dehydrated that he needed this treatment his ring weight would have had to been at least 164lbs
    30 days out from Pac fight, Floyd was 150.5 lbs.
    14 days out Floyd was 149.
    7 days out Floyd was 148.5
    At the weigh-in Floyd weighed in at 146, a full pound under the WW limit.

      You have now realized that. You are growing up Zaroku. You have become a man. I commend you for that.

        One of you pacamanicas asked me if I was the ref what would I do, this was about two years ago.

        i said the same thing then, and i stick to it. He would have lost a point min, probably two.

          How can you say Mayweather doesn't get special treatment then?

          This is common knowledge amongst the average casino worker.

            all stars get special treatment. That doesn't mean we should believe every unsubstantiated conspiracy theory.

              That's not the point. It's the beauty of what you said. You said that Floyd is not a true champ. I agree Zaroku.

                Bro im not talking about free rooms and casino comps. Mayweather is the house fighter in Vegas, its the Mayweather Show. His fights are no different than Cirque du Soleil or Blue Man Group. He gets SPECIAL treatment as in the event is designed for him to win. However, in this context I should say his show is more like Medieval Times. Everyone knows the outcome.

                  retroactive TUEs are given by USADA all the time, house fighter or not.

                  no matter how you slice it, it's a crazy conspiracy theory without any evidence or logic.

                  we're not talking nevada judges feeling pressure to give the cash cow the benefit if the doubt because a loss could impact nevada's future revenue.

                  we're talking a panel of independent doctors and experts, who have no idea who the athlete is, determining if a use was therapy or not. there is zero evidence to suggest those doctors were on the take in some way.

                      Best be cool with the "cheater" accusations.
                      Floyd tried that and Manny took his sorry azz to court.
                      Pretty Boy had to pay Pac big bucks and make a public apology.
