Notice how followers are always FIomos on here just to fit in because they feel comfortable with the numbers?

Manny and Floyd were both clean because they passed the tests.
Seriously, you cant take steroids 5 mins before a fight and reap any benefit. It takes a course of cycles, over an extended period of time, which more than covers the testing period.
You guys all know that
Manny and Floyd were both clean.
But anyway, there are plenty of substances a guy can take just before a fight to improve their performance, physically and mentally. Floyd really could have drained himself(Although I doubt it required that much), calling some random collectors to come over to watch your IV and then take urine samples only, how do you know he didn't know what he had in his system couldn't be detected via urine? Hell, the IV is supposed to be in a professional setting i.e a hospital, but here is Floyd in his living room with an IV bag. How do we even know he didn't use it already before calling the collectors? He needed to do this through the correct channels, in the correct settings, not in his house, the NSAC had to be told and per WADA protocol the TUE had to be granted before the IV was administered.
And ***, with the sht USADA has been involved with from Morales' tests to Quillins, to breaking their own rule of TUE before administering and going behind the NSAC back with the IV scandal, I'm not sure I can comfortably just take their word that they properly tested Mayweather before and after the IV.Last edited by SplitSecond; 09-10-2015, 06:15 PM.

Needed a IV to re hydrate?
His weigh-in weight is literally 2-3 pounds from his fight night weight.
c'mon son, what is it really for, i expect someone like Chavez jr to need a IV, but not someone who practically fights at his normal weight.

Very strange.
The VADA problems seem to relate to two things..... incompetency, and the usual problems a company will have when first initiating complicated protocols.
USADA cannot use any of those excuses. They are extremely well-established and their protocols should be bullet-proof.
