    Correct me if I'm wrong but, isn't it illegal to drink anything in the corner between rounds other than water? In Marquez's corner they clearly gave him a bottle of orange pedialyte and no one said anything. Either I'm wrong it isn't illegal or HBO has specific things they commen on and specific things they keep their mouths shut about...
    What's the rule Harold Letterman?

    That was Pedialyte mixed with Memo's masking agent.

    ...and they did this before against Pac.

    Very few pro sportsmen just hydrate with water. Tennis players, footballers, f1 drivers.......they all dont just have water.

    It's either illegal or it ain't. I don't care if its Bradley, Mayweather or Pac. It doesn't matter what tennis players do. If its illegal why didn't HBO mention it? And is the corner going to penalized. It's a clear cut rules violation

    Yeah, you're wrong. This was changed years ago - things like Gatorade are also legal.

    That wasn't Gatoraid... it may be something 'like' Gatoraid, but it ant Gatoraid.

    Also, I was wondering this too... I've noticed it before... I "think" it was another Mexican fighter.

    The rule is;

    Only plain water or approved electrolyte drinks may be given to a boxer in the course of the contest. For the purpose of this paragraph, approved electrolyte drinks shall mean common sports drinks such as Gatorade, Powerade, Accelerade, Cytomax, and G Push, or any other sports drink not expressly prohibited by the International Olympic Committee (IOC)
