Stupid. Stupid to mess up your career over some sticky icky. Stupid to suspend people over a drug that isn't performance enhancing.

[Beanflicker]

Yeah it's a shame people are still getting fucked over for smoking some weed.

It's ridiculous, there isn't anything further from performance enhancing lol. If I smoke the stuff I don't want to do anything strenuous for days, I commend anyone who can seriously train while indulging, they should be rewarded!

Floyd Mayweather continues to revolutionize the sport by setting strict standards for his own fighters as well as their opponents. This should be applauded.

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not but you caused me to rethink my stance. I in no way consider weed performance enhancing but like Ellerbe stated there are expectations of acting as professionals.

To hurt their own card and set back their own fighters who were cleared by the commission is a strong stance. It could just be looked at as a cheap opportunity to set an example but a statement is made.

I don't disagree with Rocco there either. Pot being a banned substance in sports is totally asinine to me, but so long as athletes know that it's banned, boo hoo. Frankly it's a pretty stupid thing to be doing during a training camp as well, Floyd might have an issue with it personally. Lots of people are drug tested for work, whether having a toke on your own time will affect the job you do or not, rules are rules.

I'm completely serious. I think Mayweather is a pioneer within the sport. He's taking the power from greedy promoters and putting it in the hands of fighters and he's fighting steroid and cheating corruption. People just don't see it because they are jealous of him and hate him.
