1) BOTH wanted to inject a substance into their body. Both substances were legal. Both were to treat a specific medical condition.
2) BOTH incorrectly filled out the pre-fight form. Manny it was that checkbox and Floyd could have explained 3 questions better than he did concerning his medical condition. Actually, Floyd didn't mention it at all.
NSAC had requested for an investigation for Manny but none for Floyd. How come?
2b) When USADA was interviewed, they said "Manny's team should have known better and let the NSAC know all medical conditions.
Yet USADA did not say that about Floyd's medical condition. How come?
3) Floyd used an IV. The pre-fight form specifically mentions these questions. "Have you taken any medication,... injection ..."
4) Prefight form asked if FLoyd took any vitamins and explain. Floyd used an IV and injected the saline solution that contained vitamins, supposedly.
5) NSAC said due to the conflict with the prefight form and then requesting an injection and time to verify results, it was not allowed. What Manny did could have been allowed according to NSAC.
"the Nevada Commission, being the ruling body over the fight, did not allow Pacquiao to avail of said treatment. Their refusal was based on the claim that they were not properly informed of Pacquiao�s injury." "The medications were disclosed but not the actual injury. There is a process. When you screw with the process, it's not going to work for you".
What's the difference with that and Floyd being injectded with a substance so close to the fight and Floyd's pre-fight form not indicating any medical conditions? There was a conflict with Floyd's pre-fight form as well. Right?
6) Manny faced possible suspension for not reporting his medical condition to the NSAC. So what about Floyd? Shouldn't Floyd have faced the same consequences? Didn't Floyd screw around with the process?
7) Its not that Floyd's was going to be approved and Manny's was not. The NSAC is just saying that they needed to know and assess with their doctor's if the medical condition was true and the treatment was acceptable (made sense) to them after they examined the athlete.
"the injection could have been approved if Pacquiao's camp had told the NSAC. Had we known prior to (the fight), we would have sent any (exam results) over to the doctors to review and come up with a treatment plan for Mr. Pacquiao that is acceptable to commission doctors "
8) As for Floyd's IV and TUE, the NSAC specifically said that in the state of Nevada, its the NSAC that needs to be informed since its the NSAC that is the sole authority in approving the TUEs.
