    It is legal to use Lidocaine (xylocaine) there.

    Floyd just so happens to be one of the only boxers in the sport to depend on the steroid?

    Because he has a gigantic advertisement on the side of the MGM Grand saying "Home of the Champion" in a city which every boxer around the world calls "the fight capitol of the world."

    He cannot lose in Vegas. Look at the stipulations they let him get away with against Maidana, a guy he calls B+ Imagine the stipulations he'd insist on to meet Pacman,
    Damn he is even allowed his own referee as his Minder again Bayless took Cortez place

    Like already mentioned, the MGM Grand is his home and has a big poster advertising him and even has a display for his belts that are up year round and other things dedicated to him. Plus he lives in Vegas, there's no state income tax and the highest grossing gates of all time have happened in Vegas
