People need to stop this and move on with their lives. Manny got whooped and there was no "injection", it was an iv to rehydrate during training. There is no evidence in these reports that he used it to mask anything and the fluids contained prove that. Saline and vitamins like B dont hide/mask anything. Why didn't they report any questionable agents that are used for masking? Seriously what next?

I agree! I don't know anything about doping, flushing, or IV rehydrating but I just can't see Floyd being stupid enough to allow anybody to see him with an IV in his arm if he was doing something illegal! Can you?
He did it, I was present, right in front of me he was doping and laughing saying everyone thinks it's Manny.

Actually, not saying Floyd is the roid but it sounds like he was doing something he technically shouldn't have done.

Why didn't he just drink the water?

IV is far more effective if you go to hospital and need hydrated they don't say hear drink some water
Re: Mayweather received banned IV injection before Pacquiao fight
Someone people on Twitter going nuts over this lol saying usada have banned IV rehydration is this true ? It can't be IV is so much better for the athlete it just doesn't make sense
Re: Mayweather received banned IV injection before Pacquiao fight
What an article by Hauser. Gonna take two goes to get through it.
USADA allows Mayweather to determine when the testing begins. That leaves a long period of time during which there are no checks on what substances he might put into his body.
“Mayweather is not doing ‘Olympic-style testing,’” Conte states. What he could be doing is this. The fight is over. First, he uses these drugs for tissue repair. Then he can stay on them until he announces his next fight, at which time he’s the one who decides when the next round of testing starts. And by the time testing starts, the drugs have cleared his system.
The whole concept of one man dictating the testing schedule is wrong. But USADA lets Mayweather do it. USADA is not doing effective comprehensive testing on Floyd Mayweather. Testing for four or five weeks before a fight is nonsense.”
“It’s bizarre,” Don Catlin says with regard to the retroactive therapeutic use exemption that USADA granted to Mayweather. “It’s very troubling to me. USADA has yet to explain to my satisfaction why Mayweather needed an IV infusion. There might be a valid explanation, but I don’t know what it is.”

Yeah better for someone in a medical emergency.
Just drink some lucozade sport and be done with it.
The moment you start getting needles involved in sports you are asking for trouble.

Re: Mayweather received banned IV injection before Pacquiao fight
I wonder how much Floyd had to pay for a Therapeutic Use Exemption ;D
FFS though. TUE for IV just to be TBE. He really is the Carl Lewis of boxing ;D;D
Re: Mayweather received banned IV injection before Pacquiao fight
"This sort of IV use is clearly against the rules. Also, from a medical point of view, if they’re administering what they said they did, it doesn’t make sense to me. There are more effective ways to rehydrate. If you drank ice-cold Celtic seawater, you’d have far greater benefits."
Re: Mayweather received banned IV injection before Pacquiao fight
They have nothing period! No proof of anything. Cherry picking at the highest level because guys like Hauser are still upset. They needed some reason to cash that card in one more time since the fight was not competitive.
Its like a gossip magazine. No proof, no intent, no nothing but there must be something. Lets just sensationalize it and title the story using words like 'INJECTION"
Somebody will buy it. They sold 4 million buys with no doubt 2 million of those buys made by haters so it will have legs.
What a shocker......
