Then Mayweather knowingly violates the rules because he's a fucking cheater.
No wonder Mayweather looked more energized and fresh in his fight against Pacquiao.
Report: Floyd Mayweather received banned IVs before Pacquiao fight
http://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/...pacquiao-fight
According to Mayweather's medical team, he was given two different mixtures of saline and vitamins to address dehydration concerns. While the mixes themselves aren't prohibited by WADA standards, their IV administration is prohibited by WADA guidelines because an IV infusion "can dilute or mask the presence of another substance that is already in the recipient's system or might be added to it in the near future."
You forgot one important thing...
However a USADA source later told AFP that because Mayweather obtained a TUE (therapeutic use exemption), no offence had been committed under WADA rules.
"Mr. Mayweather's use of the IV was not prohibited under the NSAC (Nevada State Athletic Commission) rules at that time and would not be a violation of the NSAC rules today," a USADA statement added.

And Pacquiao is being a huge faggot about it...
Philippine boxer Manny Pacquiao declared he was vindicated over previous drugs allegations from Floyd Mayweather after his American rival was accused of violating anti-doping rules before their mega-fight.
Pacquiao said the "truth finally came out" after it emerged Mayweather received an injection of vitamins and minerals in the build-up to their fight in Las Vegas in May.
Mayweather and the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) have both insisted the boxer's actions were legal after a report on the SB Nation sports news website said he had broken World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) rules.
"Truth finally came out and I was vindicated," Pacquiao said in a brief statement to reporters in the Philippines late on Thursday.
"(The) Mayweather camp accused me of using PEDs (performance-enhancing drugs). Now look what happened.
"I hope Floyd Mayweather would learn a good lesson out of (the experience)."
No Manny, you weren't "vindicated".
I've been a huge Pac fan for a long time, and I HATE Mayweather. This pretty much puts the nail in the coffin for me as far as Pac is concerned. Any excuse he can come up with as to why he lost that fight he has used, and IMO it's pathetic. He lost, badly, and nothing was going to change the outcome of that fight. Hurt shoulder, Floyd injecting vitamins and saline (OMG, HE INJECTED VITAMINS AND SALINE), none of it matters. Mayweather was and is the better boxer, period.
And seriously, vitamins and saline is what we're talking about here. Not PED's, vitamins and saline, and he had the correct permission to do so. You can spin this anyway you want as there is a lot of protocol when it comes to filing the proper paperwork for shit like this, but the fact is Mayweather broke no rules here, and even if he did... Vitamins and saline the day before a fight are hardly something to claim you were vindicated over.
Manny was being accused of using EPO, HGH and steroids, not vitamins and saline. Big fucking difference. An injection of vitamins and saline, which is extremely common before fights, does not warrant claiming you've been vindicated while you were being accused of using some serious shit. Saying shit like this just makes him look even more petty, guilty and stupid.
