Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao were each tested 19 times for performance-enhancing drug use both prior to and following their May 2 mega-fight at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, and both men passed all of the examinations.
According to records provided by the Nevada Athletic Commisison, each man gave 11 urine and eight blood samples. Among the special analyses given to the samples were Carbon Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (CIR/IRMS) testing as well as tests to detect usage of EPO and human growth hormone.
Mayweather gave urine on March 13, 18, 19 and 28, April 2, 10, 15, 21 and 27 and May 1 and 2. He gave blood samples on March 13, 18 and 28, April 2, 10, 15 and 21 and May 2.
Paquiao gave urine on March 14, 17, 23 and 24, April 1, 9, 16, 22 and 27 and May 1 and 2. Pacquiao gave blood samples on March 14, 17 and 24, April 1, 9, 16 and 22 and May 2.
Mayweather also applied for, and was given, a therapeutic use exemption (TUE) for rehydration purposes after the May 1 weigh-in. He took two separate mixes. The first was a mixture of 250 ml of saline and multi-vitamins. The second was a 500 ml mixuture of saline and Vitamin C. He was urine tested both before and after taking the solutions.
Nevada rules permit the mixes that Mayweather took, but because USADA was overseeing the testing he applied for and was granted the TUE for them.
All tests came back negative.

So USADA let Floyd take illegal supplements to rehydrate to 160lbs but NSAC stopped Pacquiao taking a legal shot.

To quote Mayweather, "You can read a guy's body language. When Pacquiao first saw me in Miami, he didn't expect to see me over there at the basketball game," Mayweather said.
"He looked shocked, like - 'Damn, he's taller than me. He's bigger than what I thought he was'. Just by being in the sport for so long, you're able to read body language and to read a fighter's eyes."

He not even the best of his generation.
Pacquiao also said, that Mayweather is bigger, but he has faced bigger guys than Floyd.
If you can't see how Mayweather is the bigger fighter then you have a problem with spatial awareness.
I wonder why USADA let him talk illegal supps?
