Swimmer Ryan Lochte suspended 14 months for illegal IV by USADA (hypocrisy?)

Lochte posted this pic on IG in May. this got him under investigation. it's now deleted.

The IV on contained vitamins (legal) but exceeded 100 milliliters (illegal).

"Lochte received an intravenous infusion of permitted substances at an infusion clinic," the USADA announcement of the suspension said. Under most circumstances, athletes cannot receive IVs unless related to a hospitalization or when allowed under the terms of a USADA-approved exemption.

Mayweather applied for a TUE on May 19th for a fight that took place May 2nd. It was approved May 20th, the following day. That smells rotten. And his IV exceeded 700 milliliters.

Then you go on USADA's website and read a TUE must be applied for "in advance."

Floyd was in violation of everything they claim to be against and got off. his IV was a home visit non-emergency situation with a liquid amount twice as much as Ryan's and he failed to apply for an exemption in advance.

You are 100% correct on this. Floyd was caught cheating but he got away with it.

Floyd fans will still deny it.

"Lochte received an intravenous infusion of permitted substances at an infusion clinic," the USADA announcement of the suspension said. Under most circumstances, athletes cannot receive IVs unless related to a hospitalization or when allowed under the terms of a USADA-approved exemption -- and Lochte fell into neither of those categories.

Suspensions for use of an IV are extremely rare: The USADA database shows only two other athletes being sanctioned for using such a method, one of them getting a six-month suspension and the other a 14-month ban. That same database shows that before Monday, no other U.S. swimmer in the past 10 years, for any reason including actual positive tests, had been suspended for more than one year by USADA.

The difference is this, oh pitiful graspers of EVERY SINGLE FLOYD STRAW LEFT ON EARTH...Mayweather had a USADA DCO right in the room who had observed him FOR HOURS PRIOR and could see exactly how the situation developed. The DCO being right on the scene was exactly why Floyd DID fall under "one of those categories".

Lochte went to some IV boutique.


Hope that helps...but, I know it won't.

LMAO!!!!!!

Should have applied for that retroactive TUE. Oh wait, he doesn't have USADA in his hip pocket along with NSAC.
