    It doesn't have anything to do with weight troll. Jesus Christ! I swear some of you guys have never spent a day in the gym or around real athletes in your lives. Maybe it's because I know pro athletes who do things like this and it's very common.

    I personally think Floyd used peds
    I personally think pacquiao used peds
    Canelo
    Fury
    Aj
    GGG
    Etc
    Etc

    This is top level sport and it goes on. Some use more than others and some get caught

    Lance Armstrong never failed a test

    I used to compete in the IPF powerlifting and I know many that passed tests. Granted the so called random testing wasn't very random, but if a Mickley mouse amateur sport has guys/girls getting around tests? Then I'm sure top pros do too

    I'm not saying every athlete uses, but I would bet my life the majority do, especially those with the resources

    Who knows what they were taking back then not as if there was any testing around but drugs were still around

    And young Corbett was 100+ fights into his career and not even that much bigger than mclarnin

    We're talking about boxing — a sport that requires a fighter to make weight. The fighters who become severely dehydrated are usually the ones who have to cut a massive amount of weight. Floyd was 150 thirty days out. He didn't have to work on weight loss. And he has the resources, professionalism, and knowledge of the fight game after 47 previous training camps to not allow himself to get to the point where he's severely dehydrated. Floyd wouldn't have ever been in any single situation during camp where he wouldn't be handed water or Gatorade by his juiced up team upon request.

    And once again, Floyd accused McGregor of cheating with illegal IVs.

    If you think PBF is the only boxer that uses saline vitamin IVs then you're crazy. For the last time it wasn't about weight loss it's about recovery and getting vitamins in your system quickly. Gatorade is not better than saline infused vitamins you sound like a fool and know nothing about training methods of athletes and how they recover. Get educated or don't bother responding to me anymore. I know way more about this stuff than you do.

    C.J. my friend there are standards. When you and I disagree as per our discussion on Floyd, Canelo and your mate Antonio Margarito never ever have I or have you referred to each other’s mother in disrespectful disgusting terms. If I find that ***** I will leave my mark on him trust me!

    Reread what I said. I never said anything about weight loss being the reason and that's my point. Floyd didn't need to lose weight. It's the guys who have to lose a ton of weight during camp who have to fold in a weight loss program into their camp. That means working out harder, longer, and through more sessions. This is the group that is more likely to become severely dehydrated. If Floyd had to lose 30 pounds to make 147, it'd be much more believable. As it stands, he and only a handful of other athletes had all the resources, knowledge, personnel, and assistance to never get to that point.

    One more time... Floyd slipped up and accused McGregor of cheating w/ IV fluids.

    "From what I was told, I do my homework, I've been hearing a lot about him getting IV bags. I don't know if it's true, I'm just saying rumours saying he got seven IV bags. In the Nevada Commission, that's illegal."

    It's not that because you keep replying. Tell yourself that, but the problem is you are not physically able to. You literally don't have enough going on in your frontal cortex so you deflect and name call as a coping mechanism.

    You are mentally impaired and haven't made a coherent or logical point. You are only able to insult people and call them stupid because you are not able to construct or understand even a very basic argument.

    An I insulting you? Or just stating a fact?

    Hint: it's the latter.
