Floyd Mayweather and possible illegal IV thread

[InvictusAeternusEternus]

its nothing a bottle of gatorade cant fix.

If you drink it while working out for sure but Floyd works out so much, so often in such a high heat setting he doesn't take the time to properly hydrate. Which is why when they collect his urine sample he can barely give any and its dark as hell It could also be he has a fast working bladder and doesnt want to spend all day pissing or it could be he is just so focused on his workout he just zones out and doesn't hydrate enough. Plus his diet is kinda suspect anyway so he might not be getting enough vitamins and nutrients throughout the day.

All I know is if you wanted to inject 750ml through an IV it would take 6-8 hours to do so. I dont see Floyd sitting around for 6-8 hours with an IV hooked to him. I wouldnt be surprised though if the 750ml wasnt actually 75ml and
like several other "facts" from his story he simply fudged the truth if not outright lied.

The problem we dont know how the question was framed or in what context his answer was given ? The author of the article could have asked him "If the allegations are true what is your thoughts on it?"
Why is that one quote the only thing in the article from Bob Bennett.
http://sports.opera.com/?sport=news&page=news&view=article&news_id=650280&localization_id=www
However, USADA reportedly" did not tell NSAC - who were responsible for jurisdiction of the WBO welterweight title fight - of that decision, so the exemption was not in place when Mayweather and Pacquiao locked horns.
Bennett reacted to the report by stressing that he has no issue with Mayweather, who won on points in Las Vegas, but hit out as USADA
"Floyd has always been a proponent of drug testing, which I applaud. He's set a fine example for all to emulate," he told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
"He's never tested positive in his entire career for any performance-enhancing drugs and, as a commission, we have no problem with Floyd Mayweather.
"As far as USADA, I was extremely disappointed that I wasn't notified right away (about Mayweather receiving an IV). When it comes to TUE, we are the sole agency that approves the administering of TUEs. USADA, nor any other anti-doping agency that does drug testing, doesn't have the authority to adminster a TUE.
"The bottom line is USADA didn't keep us informed, which is totally unacceptable and unprofessional."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Was Bennett reacting to the report from USADA or was he reacting to the report written by Houser? If Mayweather did as reported by Houser why does Bennett have no issue with Mayweather violating
the Prohibited practice laid out in they're handbook?

I hear you breh, but he also said this:

“The TUE for Mayweather’s IV - and the IV was administered at Floyd’s house, not in a medical facility, and wasn’t brought to our attention at the time - was totally unacceptable. I’ve made it clear to Travis Tygart that this should not happen again.

If he spoke to the Head of the USADA (Travis Tygart) about it and reprimanded him for it...it really happened bruh or why would he tell the Head of USADA that?


You're forgettting that the USADA arent the ones who gave Floyd the IVs, it was his own medical team (TMT aka The Medical Team I couldnt resist)

...on Friday afternoon, collection agents for the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), which had been contracted to oversee drug testing for the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight, went to Mayweather’s Las Vegas home to conduct a random unannounced drug test.

The collection agents found evidence of an IV being administered to Mayweather. Bob Bennett, the executive director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission, which had jurisdiction over the fight, says that USADA did not tell the commission whether the IV was actually being administered when the agents arrived. USADA did later advise the NSAC that Mayweather’s medical team told its agents that the IV was administered to address concerns related to dehydration.

Mayweather’s medical team also told the collection agents that the IV consisted of two separate mixes. The first was a mixture of 250 milliliters of saline and multi-vitamins. The second was a 500-milliliter mixture of saline and Vitamin C. Seven hundred and fifty milliliters equals 25.361 ounces, an amount equal to roughly 16 percent of the blood normally present in an average adult male.

Can Boxing Trust USADA's drug testing?

So at the VERY least, the USADA reported to the NSAC that Floyd was receiving IVs from his own people for being "dehydrated" which means they were rehydrating him. Everything else is us putting this jigsaw puzzle together.

Bottomline, is he was getting IV work and we dont know exactly for how long, because the USADA agents found the evidence...they didnt walk in on him actually receiving the fluids, so they cant confirm for how long was he receiving the treatment.

He cheated breh

But it was AFTER he already had weighed in...Im sure he didnt go and start working out after he already did the final weigh in bruh. You dont believe that either.


After the final weigh in is rehydration time, Floyd cheated and rehydrated by using IVs.

All I know is if you wanted to inject 750ml through an IV it would take 6-8 hours to do so. I dont see Floyd sitting around for 6-8 hours with an IV hooked to him. I wouldnt be surprised though if the 750ml wasnt actually 75ml and

No one knows how long he sat there, because when USADA found the evidence, it was after Floyd had already been removed from the IVs by TMT

 

[Master Teacher]

nikka, they was weight by the Las Vegas Nevada Boxing Commission.

These nikkaz are delusional as always, zero evidence in that article about anything

 

[L68]

what a shame this is happening right before his "last" fight

u gonna tell me one of the greatest athletes in the world is going to forget to drink water while hes trianing?

i see floyd always drinking something in his workouts, ive even seen him take sips of soda... this guy is not walking in killing himself to shed 40 pounds to make wieght... the fluids he loses are easily replacable.

750 mls can be iv'd depending on what drip you wanted at... u can set it fast.

lets just say he was dehydrated and needed iv fluids the allowable limit, 50 ml every 6 hours in a 24 hour period equals 200 ml. Mayweather took 750 ml in one sitting.

Why would they report Floyd for cheating at all when the article states outright that USADA is in his pocket?
This IV shyt was talked about back in May why wouldnt we have heard about it before now from NSAC or
Top Gank if it went down like dude is representing in his article?

Also its not actually illegal to get IV fluids its illegal to get more than 50ml per a 6 hour period. Meaning Floyd could have legally used an IV if he followed those guidlines

I agree with you as well that Floyd would've lost if not for the illegal hydration.

i see Master Teacher is back in the ring after months of absense (since floyds last fight)

:homo:

 

[GzUp]

@DalMem you gonna need reciepts to floyds neveda wieght saying he only gained 2 pounds after wiegh in... do you know how much wieght u can gain from 750 ml iv?

add to the fact he said he ate alot

It happens all the time actually. Especially in high heat situations. A lot of pro athletes go to the locker room during the game, at the half, or after the game itself to get IV's to hydrate.

You see him taking in more fluids than he out putting? Really, so your watching all his workouts everyday and even his 2am workouts?

Soda is terrible for hydration its one of if not the worst things you can consume.

You can set your drip as fast as you like, that is if you intend to seriously injure or kill your self sure.

But apparently, he didnt get only 50ml per a 6 hour period. TMT called USADA and told them 750 ml were given...unless you're gonna say the USADA lied about the actual amount The Medical Team told them and risk getting themselves effectively banned from the sport of Boxing bruh

750ml at 50ml per 6 hour period would take almost 4 days. He received 750ml after the last weigh-in per the info TMT advised the USADA collection agents, which then the USADA advised the NSAC.


Cheating.

I imagine Thomas Hauser would've called Floyd out on this if it was a lie.

i have heard athletes needed to get ivs cuz of cramps, which most likely they are dehydrated... its more so not the fluids they losing but the electrolytes and the quickest way to get the electolytes in you sytstem and correct the cramps is a iv... floyd didnt need a quick fix like that, he just needed to drink some gatorade if he saw his urine dark.

i know soda is terrible for hydration, and im sure floyd knows that... it just proves floyd aint up there walking around dehydrated.

 

[The Infamous]

floyd claims to fight at his walk around wieght so for him to say he needed it just to hydrate is kinda strange.

This.

If he's not cutting weight (or cutting very little), why does he need IVs to rehydrate?
