    True. Boxing establishment wants to move on but here's a fighter who always comfortably makes 147, claiming he needs an IV, on the night before the biggest fight of his career and the most financially lucrative fight in boxing history and NSAC says no need to investigate, Floyd's a true sportsman and our cash cow. WTF

That was not legal whatsoever . I see what u are saying and u were right , IV was permitted at the time , however all u guys left out the context of why what floyd did was illegal . Iam not hating on floyd at all , but it is fishy and technically it was illegal so iam not sure what u guys are arguing about . Theres facts to prove it was illegal . The weird thing about it all for me is the possibility that he was masking something , becusse if he was so dehydrated he needed IV how did he give urine before the IV as the same report states that he did so before the 6 hours and after. But hey iam not gonna call the guy a cheat for using an IV bag unless he failed a test . Funny how hes getting roasted for this 5 years later and people are sticking up for dillian whyte and ortiz for GETTING POPPED with banned steroids . Do I think 90% of these top athletes are actually clean just because they are passing a test ??? NO . But I'll go with what I got and wont call fighters cheats unless I have proof . Theres my two cents . Anyways this topic is old just thought I'd shed some light.

      Well said
      There’s a reason behind every action
      Now people can take it any which way they like but we are not blind or fughin ignorant
      Good post with Facts

        Obviously it’s you who doesn’t quite understand. Floyd has never tested positive. He received a retroactive TUE , which means it was legal as far as the rules go.

        Had it been illegal, he would’ve received a suspension, like canelo or denied use like Manny was with toradol.

        Now I know you pretend you are like one of the smart ones but you’re ignorant trailer trash.

        You are entitled to your opinion. Use whatever you feel necessary to denigrate Floyd’s career.

        Make sure you put all this on a sign when he is inducted into the IBHOF. Should be easy for you to get there, just drive your house and park outside.

          IV arent illegal if they are PRE-APPROVED (mayweather wasnt he got a retro-exempt meaning at the time he did it he had no permission to do so from NSAC so = cheating)

          Also mawyeather got more than the allowed ML amount of fluids regardless of approval or not again = cheaitng.

          Now is it ritual or one off no one would ever know.

              I know it must be tough for guys like rudeboy, daggum and some of the other slugs prominent in this thread.

              Floyd’s fotd award now puts an end to the debate about who is better, which frankly had ended long before they even fought.

              I get it. Floyd is unquestionably the better fighter so since you guys can’t elevate manny to his level let’s knock him down to manny’s.

              Put your arguments on a sign and Bring them to Floyd’s hall of fame induction.

              On the way pick up spoon23 and have him bring all his doctored videos.

              You guys should should all go into Headshots house and have him drive you all there.

                You've beat me to it.

                These folk are struggling to live their everyday normal lives since Floyd won that accolade.

                  You're correct. USADA's retroactive TUE, transformed a banned procedure into a legal one.

                    Ok then there is nothing you or headshots have to post.

                    If there is a handicapped parking space and you have a handicapped parking decal or license plate you can park in the space legally even if you aren’t necessarily handicapped.

                    If you don’t have the decal or the license plate you will get a ticket even if you can’t walk.

                    Now that this has been cleared up go have a drink and get over the fact floyd beat manny, won fotd, and has forever ended the debate about who is the better fighter.

                      It is a big controversy in biggest fight of your career. But it don't matter, Floyd still got fotd. Historically it may still hold Floyd back though.
                      If you claim Floyd is a higher AT G people may laugh at you, if you try bring floyds win over pac up as a reason.
