    Manny “ I don’t know what a steroids is” Pacquiao had a TUE for Celestone, a steroid. He would’ve failed VADA.

    Floyd was naturally larger than Manny, Pacman was washed up, his style doesnt age well while Mayweathers Style does. And Floyd used Illegal IV’s, administered through USADA’s controversial TUE despite not being dehydrated.

    How is pac washed up when 5 years after their fight he's still fighting at a high level??? That's the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard. Washed up in 2015 when he got dominated by an even older pbf but beat Thurman in 2019. How does that work????

    FLoyd already whipped his ass. It wasn't a close fight, it was 10-2. Floyd almost knocked the tits out of him.

    PIMP C what do you say about the issue of floyd recieving intravenous vitamin injections before his May fight against Manny Pacquiao?

    I wana hear from you your thoughts since you know that drug testing was a huge hurdle for this fight yet floyd recieved 2 shots of IV fluids. They are ban by WADA.

    NSAC Director Bob Bennett: "Mr.Mayweather did nothing wrong"

    Fact.

    It was for dehydration and it was applied for and administered by proper medics from a nearby hospital. ALL LEGIT.

    IV’s are banned by WADA guidelines because they can be used to dilute or mask another substance. Facts also.

    He was cleared thats the end of the story anything else is wishful thinking. There is no ped that you can take that will give you a result the day before the fight. Have you ever wondered why arum didn't make a big deal about it or team pac? It's because they know there was nothing to it. No benefit could be had 24 hours before the fight and it was a 1 time use iv infusion of saline and vitamins because he couldn't produce a urine sample and was dehydrated.

    You consider Judah and Augustus wars? LOG OFF!

    I was expecting a WAR after that guy was talking for 6 years. Then finally found some heart to fight. Then goes back to running and holding.

    You want credit? get out of here.

    The Nevada state athletic comission was contesting USADA decision to approve an intravenous treatment that Floyd Mayweather Jr. received before his fight with pacquiao.

    But apparently USADA approved the IVs without informing the commission. Again IVs are ban by WADA because they can be used to dilute or mask another substance. All facts.

    USADA also failed to inform the commission the request of anti-inflammatory on the night of the fight pacquiao was requesting because of the shoulder pain.

    USADA decline pacquiao anti-inflammatory. While they approved floyds IV fluids.

    Floyd surely gets credit from me, but mainly not because of the outcome of the fight itself as people might expected.

    It was a close and tight match where no one is dominating the fight. FMJ won simply because he performed better, especially in his defensive work. He did get more points in my scorecard. As all of people know, Pacquiao wasn't at his peak when he fought Mayweather. People wanted that version of Pacquiao to fight Mayweather. Sure, FMJ also aged as well and is actually older than Pac himself. However, he really knows how take care of his body and maintain the quality of his technical level through the years. This is the aspect which Floyd got the most credit from me.

    Arum held the fight up more then anyone. And some of his excuses were so cringeworthy

    "pac can't share a ring with a criminal like Floyd as it would damage his career as a politician"
