Floyd's Illegal IV; A Prefight Ritual Or A One-Time Thing?

[N/A]

It was an illegal IV.

No. It wasn't.



As was already publicly reported in May of this year by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC), Mr. Mayweather applied for and was granted a The****utic Use Exemption (TUE) by USADA for an IV infusion of saline and vitamins that was administered prior to his May 2 fight against Manny Pacquiao. Mr. Mayweather’s use of the IV was not prohibited under the NSAC rules at that time and would not be a violation of the NSAC rules today. Nonetheless, because Mr. Mayweather was voluntarily taking part in a USADA program, and therefore subject to the rules of the WADA Code, he took the additional step of applying for a TUE after the IV infusion was administered in order remain in compliance with the USADA program. Although Mr. Mayweather’s application was not approved until after his fight with Mr. Pacquiao and all tests results were reported, Mr. Mayweather did disclose the infusion to USADA in advance of the IV being administered to him. Furthermore, once the TUE was granted, the NSAC and Mr. Pacquiao were immediately notified even though the practice is not prohibited under NSAC rules.

It’s clearly written you cannot have an IV ANYWHERE EXCEPT A MEDICAL FACILITY

You're lying. In your very post, you write:

"an appropriate medical setting"

If the medics deemed Mayweather's home to be an appropriate medical setting to treat the ailment, and USADA's panel of doctors and experts (who don't know it's Mayweather when they're analyzing the information) deemed it to be appropriate, then what is the problem? Why do you have to lie about it?

He was basically masking PEDs. Who does it in their house. Nobody.

Pretty much thats what the IV was used for.Anyone with a brain is not buying the dehydrated excuse.

Unless you have a medical need for more than that. Which Mayweather did, as witnessed and confirmed by USADA.

So you sure USADA ain’t shady AF?

I get it he got a tue but nsac didnt know about it . It was shady and if it wasnt floyd it would have been an issue . Let's be real here . Again iam not calling floyd a cheater I just voted for him as Fotd (with an asterix ) iam just saying that was some shady stuff . Why does a guy who claims he walks around at 150 so dehydrated ? How was he able to pee for the before hand test if he was dehydrated that much. I've cut weight til I needed to go to the hospital almost needed dialysis if u are that dehydrated you CANNOT pee . If u do it's a few dribbles of rust coloured **** . Floyd would have better off claiming he was sick and needed it . This is an issue when he out used the legal limit by 7 times and the commission was not notified til after it was a big deal . Plus u simply said that iv wasnt illegal then and we should do out research . Well why didnt u mentioned to amount he took then ?? Seems to me you did your digging after the fact . Which is okay but just becuase the commission ended up approving a Tue it doesnt make it right . Floyd was one of my favorite fighters and I dont give him a full pass . Iam not gonna hate , but iam also not gonna say what happened wasnt soem shady ass **** tue or not brotha . Remember the context to these events . I wouldn't have any issue if the commission knew before hand and again iam not calling him a cheater unless he fails a test but that was odd and none of it came out to anyone besides USada and team mayweather until after the fight .that's the issue here .

It was a cover up. And it was not legally done ! Also their explanation is basically called ...Damage Control. It was wrongfully done before the fight and only made right after the fight. Your own post admits that. How are you still not seeing it was wrongfully done? Give it up man. Youre wrong. Live to fight another day. It is what it is.

Floyd Mayweather received an exemption for the IV from the United States Anti-Doping Agency three weeks after the fight, according to the report. However, the Nevada State Athletic Commission said USADA was not authorized to grant an exemption
