Mayweather’s pain killer ‘Xylocaine’ should be banned in Nevada

Sunday, January 24, 2010

Floyd Mayweather Jr. fans are claiming that the Xylocaine painkiller Floyd is using is not an advantage in a fight and is similar to taking a Tylenol or aspirin if you have a headache.

Xylocaine is nothing like taking an over the counter pain relief pill, if I took an aspirin and punched a wall hard I will still feel that pain, if I injected Xylocaine in my hands and punched the wall it would numb that area and reduce that sensation of pain so I don’t feel it in my hands.

They want to attack Manny Pacquiao for something he has never done in his life and never failed a test for but are defending the use of painkillers.

If painkillers were not advantageous in fights why is Xylocaine banned in the majority of U.S states?

Painkillers help a fighters pain threshold and would be even more of an advantage in a fight than steroids.

In Japan many of the MMA fighters in PRIDE admitted to using painkillers to get through fights and numb themselves from the pain.

Fernando Vargas used steroids and got his butt whipped by Oscar De La Hoya, those steroids don’t give you the ability to take a punch or make you a better fighter.

Painkillers give you the ability to resist pain, if Mayweather hurt his brittle hands in a fight that painkiller would help him fight on without feeling the pain.

Taking steroids helps you rebuild muscle in training and has it’s negative side effects as well like muscle tears and tendon injuries from your muscles growing too fast.  Even some of the biggest bodybuilders who are on steroids can’t punch as hard as a 147 pound man.

Here is an article by Scientific American on how NFL players who use steroids suffered more musculoskeletal injuries than non steroid users:

“Players who took the drugs suffered more disc herniations and injuries to their knees, elbows, necks, spines, feet, toes and ankles than those who didn’t use ‘roids. For example, 21 percent of those who used the drugs said they’d suffered herniated discs, compared to 10 percent of players who didn’t take them. Nearly 31 percent of users hurt their elbows, versus 17 percent of non-steroid users…That damage may stem from their cartilage adapting slowly (or not enough) to the increased muscle growth and force generated by the drugs, or from the greater mass and stress exerted on their ligaments and cartilage, according to the study.“

“NFL players who use steroids have more injuries”.

Since Mayweather Jr and Golden Boy Promotions are calling for a change in drug testing for the sport of boxing, let’s have a call for Nevada to ban Xylocaine.

    its so sad. cotto and foreman are both top rank and they made the deal very fast. pacman and clottey both top rank and they made the contract for just 1 day and now they are started thier training already.
    mosley is a partner of golden boy promotions and both PBF and MOsley are under Golden Boy Promotions but until now there is no announcement of their fight if it is official.

    pac and cotto last fought in november. PBF was september.
    pac cotto has new fights
    PBF still TBS (to be announced)

    OK FOR THE RECORD!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Xylocaine(lidocaine) is ILLEGAL IN NEVADA, if it is used one week before the fight. It is also tested for in the pre and post fight urine tests….. FLoyd has not been walking into the ring with numbed hands. If you need further proof look at the Oscar/Hopkins fight in 2004 where Oscar cut his hand before the fight and had to get stitches….. XYLOCAINE IS ILLEGAL, for in-ring competition….. And im a pac fan who does not care for “money”, but the truth is the truth.

    I wish Kenducky Floyd Chicken would just man up and take the beating he deserves LOL.

    Instead he likes fighting the piss guzzling, older smaller, version of himself in JMM!

    Lets face it, KFC made up these drug allegations with his dad as an excuse not to fight Manny, its the perfect plan… he knew Manny wouldnt bow down to his petty needs lol so he said FK YOU NIGGA, i dont wanna fight you and your Xylocaine injected hands! im the real cash cow now baby! Peace…

    why dont we just leave that XYLOCAINE and steroids issue and focus on thier fights.
    pac vs clottey
    cotto vs foreman
    pbf vs TBS (to be announced)

    it seams that in span of 1 year all welter are busy fighting each other while floyd only fought once and thats lightweight JMM

    Pac v Colottey should be a good match, many believe Clottey defeated Cotto in their previous match. Clottey has a granite chin and lots of power so aslong as Pac stays quick and fights and inside out game he should come up with the win.

    I predict Cotto will may a good comeback against Foreman, he’ll take alot of confidence knowing he lasted 12 rounds with Pac.

    Hopefully PBF fights Mosley, unless he comes up with some other absurd excuse not to fight him Lol, ill be banking for Mosley but i think PBF will go back to his usual self and play defensive and counter alot PBF will win…

    I can’t believe these comments. Reading through these posts is like going back in time where the racists, idiots and fanatics had a voice. Look, until evidence shows up that Mayweather or Manny are guilty of PEDS then we can not claim they are. What the hell happened to innocent until guilty? Oh, and you racists especially those Filipinos or Americans who have such a big mouth that they feel the need to express their superiority through the internet need to grow up.

    yourdaddybioatch you are exception this entire comment because not only are you racist to your entire race (I.E self hating Jew) you’re also an intolerant, fanatical moron. So, Filipinos get carried away of Manny’s success, are you honestly going to hate entire ethnicity group based on that factor alone? Shit man, that probably gives the right to hate on Jews for their dietary habits or Atheists for their professed lack of faith. Fuck you man, I’m sure Filipinos wouldn’t want you let a lone your family.

    this is real. if i was a boxer, i would rather use xylocaine than steroids. here’s why. Imagine being impervious to pain? YOU’D be INVINCIBLE!! steroids only make you stronger but you lose coordination and stability but imagine feeling no pain? you’d beat everybody up cus they won’t be able to hurt you no matter what they did. real talk.

    I wanna say thank you to the author of this article. Now, I’m planning to buy some Xylocaine in Nevada ‘coz it’s legal there. I know it will help me a lot to win the cock derby. I bet some money but I never win a lot, my fighting roasters are not good enough to endure pain. I admire Floyd Mayweather Jr. of his smartness to use Xylocaine to win 40 bouts with zero loss. Thanks Floyd!

By no one but himself. when one becomes suddenly silent somtimes one has realized der doing. dis is what JUDAS of deh 12 aposles of christ did. and what did JUDAS do afterwards. It is a shame dat Mayweather Junior resorted to dis type of behavior. but deh shame is on no one else but he. and now he does realize dat he has only brought shame upon himself and his family. he is a disgrace to his fans. if you love mayweather junior….i am bery sorry….it is not your fault. but you can find truth in your hart. you must forgive dis man.

    First Mayweather is a feather fisted bum who cant knock anyone out, not even smaller Marquez, then suddenly he is a Xylocaine monster that punches buildings down with his numbed hands. You Philipinos are such fucking dick riders… get mannies dick out your mouths so you can think a little clearer.
